I'm not so sure QH. 7 wickets going on day 1. The wicket will probably only deteriorate as the match goes on.
My glass is 95% full. Who really cares about the 5 runs he didn't get, what about the 95 runs he did get?Felt for Rogers, he deserved the ton. 5 runs short is agonisingly close.<snip>
England well in front. If Aus were in their position i would be confident they would go on to win.
It is time for Watson to stand up.
Well if Watto can make runs, QH, then the decision of the selectors would be vindicated. He's doing OK so far.
I'm a little bit more optimistic. Pitch looks good for batting and there's no reason our last 5 wickets can't get us at least within 50 of the Poms. Obviously they have their noses in front, but one good session could turn the tide back in our favour.

Rogers just got the all time test record for most consecutive 50s without a hundred (7). So he'll have that to console himself with that I guess.Felt for Rogers, he deserved the ton. 5 runs short is agonisingly close.
