I think he’s referring to the 2nd innings and that’ll he’ll get another golden duck. In that case it’ll be a king pair.

 

[Lefty]

Yes that must be it.

Handscomb is a specialist fielder at present, he needs to go back to the Sheffield Shield for a while to fix his batting.

A golden pair of ducks if you will then.

A golden pair of ducks if you will then.

OK, we'll see sometime tonight.

Go to bed, don't watch it, nightmares, get the score in the morning whilst sipping on coffee, SA shutting us out of game and series, we've cried enough.

I know it's a long shot but if we could survive day 5 and somehow get a draw it would be massive for the team

It would feel like a win and give them so much confidence

Very tough ask though, SA odds on to wrap it up before Tea I reckon

 

[Frank McWilliams]

Agreed, let's face it the 6 not batted yet not a batsmen amongst them, a lot depends on two at crease to bat out time.

 

[Lefty]

We lost by 492 runs which is the 4th largest loss in test cricket history in terms of runs.

Thankfully this tour is now over!
