Yeah that seems to be about the only way, doesn't it? If Australia bats til tea tomorrow (not a given by any stretch) you'd think it will peter out to a pretty tame draw.

6 times he's been batting when the other guy has been run-out. I look forward to the Rob video.

I went to sleep at lunch, but I wasn't surprised at all to see Watson fall straight after the resumption, it was typical and Pews was right that Roach would get him.
Watson and Cowan are both averaging on the wrong side of 40, it's kind of sad that we don't really have many batsman around the country capable of performing better. I still think that Khawaja would do a better job to what Cowan is doing, but his stats for NSW don't suggest that.
Hopefully Hussey and Wade can build on their partnership on day 4 - looking forward to seeing how the Windies approach their second innings batting, I wouldn't be surprised to see Sammy used as a pinch hitter as they'll need quick runs to force a result.

TBH I don't think it was as bad on Watto's part as it's been blown up to be; during the first run I swear Watto called for two, and had they kept running rather than dancing about mid-pitch, I reckon Shane would've made it to the striker's end. Ponting may have been in trouble at the non-strikers end but if they'd committed I reckon they would've made it.
That said, Watto definitely should've looked up after the first run.
