Australia are firmly in command in the match and series – sublime centuries from Steve Smith and Alex Carey on day two saw the visitors finish with a lead of 73 runs with seven wickets still in hand.

Coming together at 91 for 3, Smith and Carey put on a masterclass of batting in sub-continent conditions, using every ounce of patience, skill and stamina to rack up 239 runs and counting. Movement you say? What movement? Well, if a breakthrough does come then there’s still plenty in this pitch to give the spinners hope, it’s also a tough one to get started on. I have a sneaking feeling the game could go into hyperdrive if the wickets start to tumble.

preamble
James Wallace
Hello, welcome to the third day of Gal's second test. “Moving Day” is what they often call the third day play of a Test match, and we may see a lot of movement and shaking in the coming hours.
Australia is in charge of the match and series. On the second day, over the sublime centuries from Steve Smith and Alex Carrey, visitors finished with 73 runs lead on 73 wickets.
Gathered in 3 at 91, Smith and Carrie used every ounce of patience, skill and stamina to score and count 239 runs. What do you say about the movement? What kind of movement? Well, if there's a breakthrough, there's still plenty on this pitch to give hope to the spinners, but it's also difficult to get started. If the wicket starts rolling, I feel it will creep up as the game could become a hyperdrive.
Play is grown at 10am, 3:30pm local time and at 4:30am in the UK. would you like to join!
