Why do I get the feeling Trott is going to be one of those asshole players who decides to play exceptionally well against Australia his whole career. Well done though Trott lol...

Ponting's captaincy would meke me rage if I were Australian.

I would hate to be bowling under his reign. Just let the kid bowl without interfering for 5 minutes! It's ridiculous.

How long should Strauss bat on for? Unless bowled out, I would keep going until tomorrow.
Until all out. Keep them in the field for as long as possible, build the scoreboard pressure, and let them build up the footmarks.

As long as he likes really. Certainly, he shouldn't declare any earlier than tea on day 3, in the unlikely event that the batsman continue for that long.

Lead over 300. He might be a ****, but I really want to see a Ricky Ponting century in the second dig.

Some real filth from Smith here. Seems a nice kid and all, but he's badly out of his depth IMHO.
Yeah, not bowling well today from what I've seen. I think he's being asked to do too much of a specialist spinners job in landing it in the footmarks and is therefore trying too hard. At least he's gone back over the wicket now. Short ones clearly don't help though. Streaky 50 Prior but well played to get this far after some luck.
