I know its still very early days but that pitch is turning nicely, Lyon getting plenty of turn, maybe they should of gone with the second spinner, considering they have the luxury of Cam Green in the team to cover the missing paceman. Travis Head been given the ball in the first god damn session probably helps the argument a bit more.
Agreed mate. Wasn’t a good toss to lose either, these opening batsmen look pretty comfortable.

WHAT THE ****?! SHANE WARNE DIED! He died of a suspected heart attack in Thailand. Aged 52. RIP to the best ever leggie this country has ever produced.

Aside from his amazing career as a bowler I really liked Warnie's mischievous commentating, especially when he was partnered up with Bumble.

One of a kind Warnie. Wish we had to put up with him for at least another 20 years. R.I.P legend.

I hated his commentary but he's probably the best cricketer I've ever seen. Watching him work out batsmen was a thing of beauty.

It's funny, it was his commentary that made me like him as a person, outside of his sporting achievements.

So much for looking forward to this tour. If this is how all pitches will be then I have zero interest.
I could have heard wrong but the first match was supposedly being played on a road so it was always going to be a runs test, tests 2 & 3 see a turning wicket & a fast bowlers pitch, cannot remember which pitch or test offers which one
