Well these two chaps are getting England into a rather nice position, here.

I dreamt that we were 47-7 so waking up to this has been a lovely surprise.

What odds might you have got on Malan being the first centurion of the tour for England, I wonder.

If these two can get us to 300 or, dare I say it, 350 - we'd be in a very commanding position indeed*

*we'd crumble to 361 all out.

Various comments on the radio that this is the perfect batting wicket and we need at least 380 to have any chance

Well you'd hope that would be achievable from here.

I would suggest the next 10 overs and the first 30 mins tomorrow will decide a lot

We need to win key sessions which all seem to have gona Australia's way. I highly doubt we'll get to stumps today 4 down but if we could it should give the team a big lift.

We’re 1 wicket away from finishing on 340 all out imo

They got to bat through to lunch tomorrow imo imo
