Wowee... Two wickets in a whole day... when the bowling was okay.
Another atrociously flat pitch... Yeah, it'll prolly break up in the heat and get a result... But then that's unfair to the side that loses the toss.
Oz's best batsman, Marnus Labuschagne, continues on his merry way... If he doesn't get bored or run out by FTB, Marny could make 200 or 300 this innings.
Marny's averaging over 60 in Tests and under 40 in Sheffield Shield... It's harder to bat in the Sheffield Shield, cos the Test pitches are so flat. How sad.
"Among Australians, only Sir Donald Bradman, Neil Harvey, Mike Hussey, Steve Smith and Mark Taylor have scored more heavily than Labuschagne from their first 29 Tests.
Still at the crease late into day one and with another innings to bat, Labuschagne could yet add to his tally of more than 2,600 Test runs during this match.
It also maintains his perfect record of having scored centuries against each of the Test nations he has now played against, with this ton coming in his first long-form match against the Windies."
2/350. The partnership is presently 199*. This is the highest 3rd wicket partnership by an Australian Test pair against the West Indies in Australia. The previous record was held by The Don and Alan Kippax (193 at Brisbane in the 1930/31 series).
