Put the foot on the throat and bat again for 4 sessions, set them 800 for victory
Really? 😂 dunno, bowlers should be ok. Interesting call, be nice to bowl again, need a handful and send Ross out to hit the winning runs

as an aside, although the team travelling to Aust will be missing test players, Ross should be coming, be nice for Kiwis there to say farewell…

And f**k you Novak

if you don’t want to be vaxxed, fine, but parading around when you have COVID is insulting, Australia should be outraged given what’s been sacrificed

I’m not into booing, but i’d boo the f**k out of him if I was able to go to Melbourne

41 overs, it's not as though the Kiwi bowlers would be too knackered

They had a heavy load in the first test, but surely we enforce it…. First test was their own complacency so they should be very focused on retribution

The only reason to bat again is to give ross one more test innings. But really i don't think ross would want that anyway.

Agreed, easy decision for mine. No room for sentimentality when you need to draw the series and Ross would want the win more than anything else.

I saw a fair amount of people seriously arguing for this. Absolutely ridiculous. Sure, we'd love to see Taylor bat one more time, but much more important to win the game and square the series.

Right decision to enforce the follow on and hopefully we can finish it today.

Jamieson gets the breakthrough. Blundell takes a great catch.

27/1

Good bit of trivia on the radio. Taylor has 2 Test wickets- who were they?

74/2 for lunch of Day 3.

May be slightly Bangladesh's session there, but the match situation looms large over them. Only the wicket column matters, really

123/4

Boult has one overturned then Wagner gets Mominal straight away
