00:17hello and welcome along to test day it was day two of the pink test rain and bad light playing
00:22spoil sport on the opening day but not before australia made their way to two for 147 we
00:28resume with kawaja on 54 and steve smith on nought at the start of day two maharaj firing up the
00:38big
00:38quick so they need to make early inroads and we're all set for day two here at the sydney creek
00:42ground
00:48plenty of voice immediately from his teammates that's what they need they need that vibrancy
00:52they need energy and they need to be right on point from the opening stanza here
01:01Wolkowski yeah was it bats doesn't seem so more of a polite inquiry from behind the stumps
01:09yeah in into the breeze norkia which yeah that's that's strange maybe it's just that the more senior
01:18bowler getting the pick of ends i mean robada did start at this end he started the test match at
01:22at this end at the moment where nokia is bowling from but uh this man picked up a wicket bowling
01:32from both ends uh well picked up a wicket at each end yesterday nokia
01:39i remember a club bowler at sutherland playing with glenn mcgrath
01:43and he questioned why glenn mcgrath was bowling with the wind because his theory was well if you
01:47bowl into the wind at an eyeball with the wind will be the same pace so maybe robata singing
01:54that with more norkia yeah surely it was a a twin cross out a coin toss here we go we
02:01started well
02:02yeah surely they just tossed it out the back and thought oh unlucky yeah you beauty i've taken the
02:10top end thanks 250-odd test wickets won't take precedence that's a good angle there that's
02:19just a nice one just drawing the stroke from kawaja
02:25if that just straightens up a fraction catch the edge
02:34tell you what it's been a nice start from these two obviously run ball left in this over but
02:38a perfect perfect way to start the day for south africa they want to be all over this australian
02:44lineup get into the middle order get their spinners into the game a little bit more
02:48and see if they can get out there and have a bat at some stage today
02:56starts with the maiden this norkia 49 overs complete 248
03:04plenty of chirp out there at the moment the body language is good from the south africans
03:21off of the top of the shoulder
03:22look like it might have been a bit up ish
03:24and I think that's
03:27the ball that wins that one
03:29the crowd will tell you
03:30it was a valiant effort
03:33there out in the deep
03:35first boundary of the day
03:38I'll tell you what
03:40the slips were excited
03:41by that shot
03:42was it just a little bit uppish
03:43square legs hunting there
03:44but I tell you what
03:45if we roll the visioner here
03:47cricket has a funny way
03:48of making it look
03:49a little bit silly
03:50doesn't it
03:51outstanding effort
03:53the ball just kept
03:55getting further and further
03:56away from him
03:57that's a short boundary
03:58out
03:58that leg side
03:59for the left-hander
04:16sure he'll want to just
04:17get a little bit fuller
04:18Norkia there
04:19it's a good line
04:20that he's got
04:22Norkia
04:27so that line
04:28you can see that
04:29just tailing away
04:30so if he can just push
04:31that
04:31a metre or so
04:33further forward
04:33try to draw the front
04:34footstroke
04:35he'll really be in the game
04:44protection back in the deep
04:45so it'll just be a single
04:47finish there
04:48over five runs
04:49from it
04:50two for 153
04:53Steve Smith
04:53you've got a feel for Steve Smith
04:54he walked out here
04:55last night
04:56to have a bat
04:56and I walked straight off again
04:57he's walked out here
04:58about three times already
04:59this morning
05:01still on Nort
05:03and you know
05:03a lot of people
05:05don't like that
05:06sitting on Nort
05:06for a while
05:12not perfectly timed
05:13and if there is
05:14any moisture
05:15in the outfield
05:15that might just
05:16affect the ball
05:17a wee bit
05:18but it was a lovely
05:19pull shot
05:20they're so quick
05:21to pounce
05:21and latch on
05:23to anything short
05:23especially here at this ground
05:24at the SCG
05:25it doesn't get up as much
05:26slightly slower as well
05:28so easier to play
05:29but he keeps his hands low
05:31doesn't get up as much
05:33as maybe it should do
05:35so that's why it hits
05:36the toe of the bat
05:38but he gets enough of it
05:45it may well have
05:47come off the bat
05:48it did
05:50and Steve Smith
05:51is underway
05:52not that far away
05:54from Verena
05:55no
05:56he's just a little
05:57too straight
05:57to Smith's a great
05:58deflector
05:59we know that
05:59he loves this pitch
06:01he has a terrific record
06:02at the track and distance
06:04and if you get it
06:05slightly wrong
06:05he gets it slightly right
06:10just enough
06:11to evade Verena
06:17yeah
06:17what this is doing at the moment
06:19is just getting him in
06:20that length
06:24so you've got to attack
06:25Smith with a field placement
06:26now
06:27because there's nothing
06:28in the pitch for Robata
06:29he's combating
06:31his line and length
06:32pretty well
06:32so you've got to get tricky
06:34with your fielders
06:34either an extra cover in there
06:41or a leg slip in position
06:43if he's going to bowl that
06:44length or middle stump
06:49well that's an odd shot
06:51but it's super successful
06:53it really didn't look as if
06:55he was balanced at all
06:56but it raced away
06:58quite remarkable
06:59two for 170
07:02to continue
07:05goes aerial
07:06real sign of aggression
07:08from Usman Khawaja
07:09clears everything
07:13yeah first six of the match
07:14and what a fantastic shot
07:16that is
07:16there's plenty of protection
07:18from Maharaj
07:18on the leg side
07:19he almost gave himself
07:21a little bit of room
07:21wanted to stay
07:22leg side to the delivery
07:23so he could pop it
07:24over the offside
07:25got somewhere near the pitch
07:26he knew there wasn't
07:27going to be much spin
07:28from Maharaj
07:29so you're right
07:29he stayed leg side
07:30of the ball
07:31and with long on back
07:32he deliberately hit it
07:33over mid off
07:37drives that nicely
07:38for Smith
07:40all the way
07:41to the rope
07:42his second down
07:44with 30
07:45and he can still hit the ball
07:47through the offside
07:47even with going back
07:49to the old technique
07:50he's got great
07:51hand-eye coordination
07:53might be a lot of footwork
07:54here
07:54shuffle across
07:57foot doesn't get anywhere
07:59near the pitch of the ball
08:00but he just
08:01used his hands
08:02to ease the ball
08:03into the gap
08:03it's actually amazing
08:04he's made another change
08:05isn't he
08:05I mean he was
08:06the two that we showed
08:07he was getting way
08:07outside the off stump
08:08now he just got onto
08:10off stump on that one
08:11so still almost wanted to
08:12free up
08:12being able to go through
08:14the offside
08:14so slight change
08:15because the field's
08:17changed
08:21off stump on that one
08:21just still see the off stump
08:22at point of delivery
08:23whereas those other two
08:24you showed earlier
08:25he was comfortably
08:26outside off stump
08:28so he's adjusted again
08:30which is amazing
08:30to be able to do that
08:31in the middle of a
08:32test innings as quickly
08:33and efficiently
08:34as he does do it
08:35I think he's expecting
08:36Marco Jansson to be
08:37bowling up around the
08:40ribcage sort of region
08:41catching with wicket there
08:42that leg gullies
08:43and so he just wants to
08:44square up so he can just
08:45play that ball
08:46with a little bit more
08:47comfort
08:49Jansson hasn't really
08:49gone there yet
08:54that's the Steve Smith
08:55of a couple of seasons
08:56ago
08:56as you say
08:57beautifully played away
09:0050 stand comes up
09:02106 deliveries
09:032 for 199
09:04the Ritchies enjoyed it
09:08yeah it's been a good
09:09partnership
09:09from these two
09:10Kawaj has looked
09:10really comfortable
09:11he's obviously spent
09:12a lot of time
09:12out on this pitch
09:13he knows these conditions
09:14really well
09:15Steve Smith
09:15he took a little while
09:16to get going
09:17he had to be really
09:18patient early
09:19get used to the pace
09:20of this pitch
09:21and he's just slowly
09:22started to pick up
09:24the pace in these innings
09:25he's made a few
09:26adjustments
09:27just gone on
09:28his merry way
09:28he's 83 not out
09:30now eyeing off
09:31a century
09:32Steve Smith
09:33you just get the feeling
09:34he's becoming more
09:35and more comfortable
09:35on this surface
09:36the longer he's out
09:37there
09:37it's been a nice
09:38partnership for
09:39Australia
09:43did he get back
09:45in time
09:45Steve Smith
09:50smart work
09:51from Zondo
09:56it's been pretty
09:56nifty
09:57under the lid
09:58this series
10:00and yeah
10:00comfortably back
10:04it's a great bit of work
10:06by Zondo
10:06and actually a great bit of work
10:07by Steve Smith
10:08because he actually slipped over
10:09so to get back as quick as he did
10:12it's good work
10:17that's just good cricket
10:18wasn't the bat pad
10:19did a great job
10:21hitting the stumps
10:23and Steve Smith
10:24just the contortionist
10:29what can happen
10:30Australia just
10:31inched their way
10:32closer and closer
10:33to 300
10:33for
10:35still plenty of wickets
10:36in the shed
10:36all of a sudden
10:37you can start
10:38upping the ante
10:39a little bit
10:39with more aggressive cricket
10:44he's used that shot
10:45a lot today
10:46Steve Smith
10:46and he fetches
10:47six for it this time
10:53good shot
10:53that one's just
10:54a tad short
10:55from Maharaj
10:58well put away
11:00nice shot
11:01he got back
11:02in the crease
11:02and sort of
11:03bent the knee
11:03so he could get up
11:04underneath it
11:09shorter boundary
11:10over that way too
11:11so
11:12he was quite prepared
11:14to lift the ball
11:14over the infield
11:22this time
11:23into the gap
11:25for four
11:27so taking the attack
11:28to Maharaj
11:29here is Steve Smith
11:32applying plenty
11:33of pressure
11:35I think
11:36changed the bowling
11:37needed at the
11:39round weekend
11:39probably Norky
11:40had to come down
11:41breeze
11:41there's the six
11:42just back of the length
11:43wasn't it
11:44so that's a good shot
11:44nice footwork there
11:48from Steve Smith
11:49so a couple of
11:50really good boundaries
11:50in a row
11:52blue ball is
11:53five and a half
11:54overs away
11:55and if I take it
11:56straight away
11:57it won't be
11:57with Harmer
12:02just take a moment
12:04to appreciate
12:05three wicketkeepers
12:05in the commentary
12:06voice
12:07good point
12:08strong point
12:09enough about the
12:10cricket
12:14he's a good shot
12:15there
12:16and Steve Smith
12:18gets it
12:19fine enough
12:20past Barbaruma
12:22he's pretty quick
12:23across the turf
12:25and they're all
12:26loving that
12:29he's really patient
12:31at the start
12:32of this inning
12:32Steve Smith
12:33a few little rain
12:34delays
12:35he was on again
12:35off again
12:36so he took his
12:37time
12:37but I've loved
12:38the way he's
12:39been prepared
12:39to just go
12:40through the gears
12:40as soon as
12:41he's seen
12:41an opportunity
12:42he took on
12:43Maharaja
12:44in a little period
12:45there
12:45hitting for a six
12:46and a four
12:49he's made
12:50quick sharp
12:51decisions
12:52he just switched
12:57through the switch
12:58not long ago
12:59and now
12:59he's in the mood
13:00and it's vintage
13:01it's vintage stuff
13:02back to back
13:05I think
13:06I was just looking
13:07up the screen
13:08a lot earlier
13:08he was 16
13:09off 57 deliveries
13:10and you know
13:12his last 40
13:13odd runs
13:1430 odd runs
13:14have come
13:15quite quickly
13:16relative to the
13:17first one
13:17so true to your
13:18point Gilly
13:19that he's just
13:20used the gears
13:20really nicely
13:21and just been
13:21patient enough
13:22to wait
13:22and wait
13:23for a ball
13:23in his zone
13:26oh he gets
13:27it past
13:27a diving gully
13:29and down
13:29to the boundary
13:30for four
13:31and because
13:32Kowaja
13:32is getting
13:33mighty close
13:34now
13:36he is indeed
13:37we can get
13:37back to the
13:38stats later
13:38because there's
13:39well potentially
13:40a couple of
13:40milestones coming
13:41up
13:41Ian Smith
13:42I'm surprised
13:43that you were
13:43able to get
13:44into the
13:44commentary box
13:44here
13:45I saw
13:45Mark Howard
13:46lurking
13:46with gaffer
13:46tape
13:47trying to
13:48bind you up
13:49and not let
13:50you get here
13:50but that's
13:51another beautiful
13:52stroke
13:52using the
13:52pace of the
13:53ball
13:54classic
13:55he is so
13:56classy
13:58and at
13:5998
13:59he has hit
14:00his average
14:00at this
14:01very ground
14:09all the way
14:10and does he
14:11hit a gap
14:12he'll turn
14:13for two
14:13they're coming
14:14back
14:14Kowaja is
14:14coming back
14:15he's sprinting
14:16he makes it
14:29he's done it
14:30I think
14:31the patience
14:32he showed
14:32early
14:33he reaped
14:33the rewards
14:34of cashing
14:35in on some
14:35loose bowling
14:36and what a way
14:37to celebrate
14:38family here
14:38watching on
14:39been a lean
14:40summer so far

16:05pretty confident

16:07periods of time
16:08in the park
16:08where things
16:09haven't happened
16:10but he's a
16:11fighter

28:26this man
28:26he's a
28:27great player
28:27in any
28:28era
28:28you can
28:28throw
28:28him
28:29in
28:29the
28:301960s
28:30the
28:311990s
28:31wouldn't
28:32matter
28:32he's an
28:33elite
28:33player
28:35and started
28:35off slowly
28:36but once
28:37he got to
28:3730 or
28:3840
28:39he thinks
28:40it's just
28:40and that's
28:41a wicket
28:41that is
28:42caught
28:42and bowled
28:43a very
28:44nonchalant
28:44piece of
28:45cricket
28:45I thought
28:46for a
28:46moment
28:46it might
28:47have been
28:47hit into
28:47the ground
28:48and it
28:49was chipped
28:49back to
28:50Maharaj
28:50he couldn't
28:51believe
28:51his luck
28:52and he
28:53takes
28:53the
28:53catch
28:59for us
29:00all by
29:00surprise
29:01that
29:01wicket
29:01well maybe
29:03Maharaj
29:03himself
29:04his first
29:05wicket
29:05after
29:05toiling
29:06long
29:06and
29:06hard
29:08just
29:09chipped
29:09back
29:09maybe
29:10held up
29:11a fraction
29:12so often
29:13after the
29:13big milestone
29:14has reached
29:14many a
29:15player has
29:16fallen
29:16soon
29:16after
29:17such
29:17an
29:17emotional
29:18time
29:19it is
29:19with
29:20Steve
29:20Smith
29:20he looks
29:21disappointed
29:22never
29:22satisfied
29:22but he
29:23should
29:23be
29:23it was
29:24fantastic
29:25hundred
29:26constant
29:27reminder
29:28of his
29:28greatness
29:28goes for
29:29104
29:29Australia
29:30free

29:37he's not going to miss out on that
29:39Travis Head
29:39loves it
29:40anywhere
29:42point
29:43or towards
29:44third man
29:44brings up his first
29:45boundary
29:46free for
29:46363
29:47a run of
29:48bad luck
29:49in
29:50spinning conditions
29:51or something
29:52with his
29:52technique
29:52technique
29:53I think
29:53technique
29:54wise
29:56he's
29:57he's just
29:57got to
29:57let the ball
29:58come to him
29:59a bit more
29:59he tends to
30:01stand and throw his
30:02hands at the ball
30:02and if the ball
30:03holds up a bit
30:04you know
30:04you're going to be
30:07susceptible to
30:07court and bolts
30:08hitting the ball in the air

31:11nothing you can

32:10well the
32:11ball was a
32:11long way
32:12from the
32:12body
32:13so any
32:14noise
32:14you'd have
32:15to think

32:47see that big
32:48stride there
32:50yeah
32:51and that front
32:52pad is going
32:53towards the

32:54not towards
32:55the ball
32:55and then
32:56forces your
32:56hands to
32:57chase it
32:58if you want
32:58to hit it
32:58travis head

33:24while
33:24in

33:25it's felt
33:26like
33:26the breeze
33:27in the
33:27direction
33:28would help
33:28him take
33:28the ball
33:29away
33:29from
33:29the left
33:29hand
33:30but most
33:31of those

35:38before australia
35:38continued
35:39three for
35:41394
35:41and poised
35:43to accelerate
35:43here's what
35:44happened at
35:45the end of
35:45day two
35:48first ball
35:49post tea
35:56need a
35:57been crossed
35:57with himself
35:58there
35:58if he'd
35:59knock that
35:59down the
35:59leg side
36:00travis head
36:00because he's
36:01had a history
36:01of it
36:04interesting to
36:05see what
36:05line they
36:06fed his
36:07cut shot a
36:07couple of
36:07times pre
36:08tea
36:09they're determined
36:10to bowl as
36:10straight as
36:11they can to
36:11travis head
36:12they know how
36:12strong he is
36:13and what a
36:13hot zone it
36:14is through
36:15point and
36:15cover point
36:16you see how
36:17straight they
36:18get to him
36:26i think
36:26harmer's going to
36:27be a challenge
36:27for him after
36:29assuming he does
36:29bowl after
36:30which he should
36:32and he should
36:32keep the field up
36:33too for travis
36:34head
36:35we've already
36:36seen a half
36:36chance where he
36:37nicked one
36:37just fell short
36:38of slip
36:39as we talk
36:40as a field

36:41going to be a
36:41real leg stump
36:43line with five
36:44on the leg
36:46side so a leg
36:47gully which i
36:48don't mind for
36:48that short one
36:49which travis can
36:50glove and then
36:51if he wants to
36:52have a hook
36:52there's two men
36:53out there one
36:54just in front of
36:55square and a
36:56normal widest
36:56fine leg
37:04missing leg and
37:05while we're on
37:06the subject of
37:06stories how
37:07about this one
37:07how about a
37:08bloke that
37:09comes into a
37:10test match
37:11gets an
37:11opportunity
37:12gets covered
37:14shortly after
37:15the team
37:16naming as such
37:17so he can
37:18play
37:19and then
37:20has to sit
37:20outside with
37:21a hoodie on
37:22by himself
37:23by himself
37:24waiting to bat
37:24in a test
37:25match

37:26lonely couple
37:27of days

37:30in the middle
37:30when he's
37:31talking to his
37:31partner has
37:32he got to

37:33conferences
37:35just a few
37:36hand signals
37:37that is in
37:43itself quite
37:44weird and
37:44that's not
37:45good
37:45not good
37:46at all
37:46that piece
37:47of healing
37:47from the
37:48man who
37:49demands
37:49so much
37:51won't be
37:52happy with
37:52that at
37:53all
37:55three for
37:56Travis
37:56hit
38:09should have
38:09done better
38:09this guy
38:10should have
38:10stopped it
38:11shouldn't he
38:12maybe thinking
38:12about his
38:13field
38:14positions and
38:15who's going
38:15to bowl
38:15the tricky
38:16one just
38:16off the
38:17square
38:17it's a bit
38:17of a rough
38:19rough old
38:19square but
38:21had to get
38:21a hand on
38:22it didn't
38:22he
38:26and that
38:27is through
38:27the Travis
38:28head region
38:29so we
38:29say
38:29it's another
38:31boundary
38:35it's another
38:37will hit it
38:38for four
38:42best form of
38:43defense
38:43attack
38:44isn't it
38:44yeah
38:44and he
38:45sweats on
38:46that delivery
38:46that's
38:47he's just
38:48short of a
38:48gallop
38:48maybe
38:49Simon

39:00defending
39:00with that
39:01reach
39:01well it's
39:01an awkward
39:02defensive
39:02shot
39:02his front
39:03foot is
39:03going
39:04more towards
39:05leg than
39:05rather towards
39:06the ball
39:07and then he's
39:07got to reach
39:08out with his
39:08hands
39:10and it's a
39:11big stride
39:11as well
39:12we spoke
39:12about it
39:13before
39:13the tea
39:14break

39:54was the
39:54awkward
39:54shot
39:55there
39:55an awkward
39:56prod
39:56forward
39:57and then
39:58bugger that
39:59I'm not going

40:18think so
40:19I don't
40:19think they're
40:19going to be
40:20happy with
40:21I think
40:21they want
40:21more
40:24how many
40:24overs left

40:48his test
40:49best
40:49score
40:50Osmond
40:50Khawaja
40:55has
40:55so much
40:56luck
40:56Jansen
40:56on
40:57tour
40:58that's
40:59where you
40:59want
40:59just the
41:00gloves
41:00of the
41:00keeper
41:00should
41:01he
41:01have
41:01done
41:01better
41:01smithy
41:02no he's
41:02pretty
41:03short
41:03isn't
41:03he
41:03I think
41:04he gave
41:04it
41:04pretty
41:04much
41:04everything
41:05he gave
41:05a good
41:05good jump
41:07good
41:07Toyota
41:08what a
41:08feeling
41:08type
41:09jump
41:12you might
41:12be right
41:13but they
41:13might have
41:13a little
41:14four or
41:14five overs
41:15tonight
41:15if they
41:16keep going
41:16sixes
41:17and over
41:20it's funny
41:21how the
41:21tactics
41:22against him
41:22have
41:22changed
41:22when he
41:23first
41:23came in
41:24he was
41:25scoring
41:26with
41:26pull shots
41:27and working
41:27leg side
41:28then they
41:28switched
41:29their line
41:29to offside
41:30and he
41:30hardly hit
41:31a boundary
41:31leg side
41:32now they've
41:33gone the
41:33other way
41:33they're
41:34stacking
41:34the
41:34leg side
41:35and bowling
41:35middle
41:35and leg
41:36to him
41:36with only
41:38four men
41:38on the
41:39offside
41:39so
41:41Khawaja
41:41is winning
41:42the tactical
41:42battle
41:43he's
41:46178
41:46not
41:49and they're
41:49running
41:49out of
41:50ideas
41:53and they're
41:53running out
41:54of options
41:54all right
41:55I can tell
41:55you because
41:56he's just
41:56frustrating
41:57them through
41:58gaps
41:58and that
41:58has been
41:59one of
41:59the other
42:00highlights
42:00he hasn't
42:01hit me
42:02and he's
42:02hit gaps
42:06yeah
42:06they're
42:07searching
42:07for something
42:08but there's
42:08not much
42:08on offer
42:09I think
42:09maybe

46:55I'll tell you
46:56what though
46:56this is
46:56one of my
46:56favourite
46:57parts of
46:58test cricket
46:58is the
46:59speculation
47:00of the
47:00declaration
47:01the only
47:01people that
47:02know exactly
47:03what's going
47:03on is
47:04probably
47:04Andrew
47:04McDonald
47:05and Pat
47:05Cummins
47:05hopefully
47:06his teammates
47:07but all
47:07of us
47:08speculate
47:09and it's
47:09one of my
47:10favourite parts
47:10of test
47:11match cricket
47:12we ever got
47:13it right
47:13I don't reckon
47:14we have
47:15my time as
47:16a commentator
47:17is
47:17oh
47:17surely
47:18they'll be
47:18declaring
47:18soon
47:19surely
47:19got enough
47:20runs
47:22and then all of a sudden
47:23when you're talking
47:24it
47:24oh they won't
47:24declare yet
47:25and then all of a sudden
47:26but hang on
47:27head
47:28straight down the ground
47:29that is a glorious shot
47:31from Travis Head
47:32bangs into the side screen
47:37that is worth a dance
47:38and a little shimmy
47:40and a jig I think
47:44talk about demoralising
47:47that is just
47:48one super cricket shot
47:50good use of the feet
47:52and he's got
47:53extraordinary power
47:54he's not a huge
47:56power hitting
47:57looking guy
47:58but he has got
47:59a pocket rocket
48:01Rubada to head
48:02gives himself room
48:04is the catch taken
48:06it's low
48:07and it hard
48:07and it is
48:08Rubada
48:09gets the wicker
48:10to Travis Head
48:11he falls for 70
48:16catch out on the boundary
48:17in dark conditions
48:20and
48:22Matt Renshaw
48:22will get his opportunity
48:23after the subfielder
48:25Rossi van der Dusen
48:26takes the catch
48:31it was hard to pick up
48:33because Travis Head
48:34hit that so hard
48:35but flat
48:36and
48:37basically straight
48:38to the fielder
48:38in the deep
48:39and in the end
48:40that's a very good catch
48:41in those conditions
48:43I can't believe
48:44it can he Travis Head
48:45that was
48:45so well struck
48:47into a fine inning
48:5170 off 59
48:524 for 468
48:56he did well
48:57to hang on to it
48:58and then turned around
48:59and made sure
48:59the crowd knew about it
49:00as well
49:01they've been giving him
49:02a bit of stick
49:02while he's been out there
49:03on the boundary
49:04so for those that aren't aware
49:05Matt Renshaw
49:06last played a test
49:07in 2018
49:08in South Africa
49:10people are asking
49:10why he wasn't linked
49:11in arms with Josh Hazelwood
49:12in the song
49:13it's because he tested
49:14positive on the morning
49:15of the test match
49:16he's been isolating
49:17and now he's facing
49:18Rabada back in test cricket
49:19just gets away
49:21and gets away
49:22with a boundary
49:24that'll get him going
49:25welcome back
49:26Matt Renshaw
49:29I was just about to say
49:30to the side
49:30for Matt Renshaw
49:31to walk out
49:32in these circumstances
49:33coming back
49:34into test cricket
49:36and you've got to walk
49:38out there
49:38and basically
49:38look to score
49:39straight away
49:40after being isolated
49:42from your teammates
49:43for a couple of days
49:44that's a great start
49:45isn't it
49:46just
49:47off the hip
49:48easy as you like
49:49boundary four
49:50to start things going
49:51it's just very
49:532023
49:54what a story
49:56he's got such a great
49:58relationship with
49:58Usman Khawaja
49:59credits him
50:00a lot with his
50:01return to this level
50:02and now he's out there
50:03batting with him
50:05if he was to
50:06bring up another
50:08milestone
50:08I'm not sure
50:09Matt Renshaw
50:10can get in for the
50:10big hug
50:11I don't know
50:11what happens in
50:122023
50:14that's a very
50:16valid question
50:16that you ask
50:17and I think
50:18no one's going to
50:18know the answer
50:19to that
50:19until it happens
50:21I'm saying
50:22no
50:23there's no
50:24hugging
50:24maybe a fist pump
50:25yeah
50:26that might be the
50:27closest
50:27you've got gloves on
50:29great start to
50:30Renshaw though
50:31short fine leg
50:3215 from the bat
50:35beaten
50:37outside off stump

50:49squall passing
50:50squall passing
50:50over the SCG
50:53he's still doing
50:54the crossword
50:54so he doesn't
50:55look too keen
50:56on a declaration
50:56at the moment
50:57I did get a text
50:59message from
51:00a stint earlier
51:01where Ian Smith
51:01had a crack at
51:02the fast bowlers
51:03that they would
51:04wouldn't be doing
51:04the crossword
51:05but I can report
51:06that the fast bowlers
51:07in this team
51:07actually are the ones
51:08that do the crossword
51:09there you go
51:12and we have proof
51:13of it right there
51:14the normal
51:15or the cryptic
51:18without me too harsh
51:19I'm going to go
51:20normal
51:20I'm not sure
51:21up to the cryptic
51:37the other thing
51:38it does do
51:39keeps Kowaja
51:40down the other end
51:41sitting there
51:41on 195
51:42not out
51:44rain falling
51:46talk of the light
51:49just adds another
51:50little element
51:51to the fixture
51:51doesn't it
51:52when you
51:53he's been batting
51:54what the best part
51:55of two days
51:56and all of a sudden
51:57you're on 195
51:57and you're sweating
51:58to get the runs
51:59before the rain
52:00comes in
52:02yep
52:02pretty sure
52:05will retain the strike
52:08a bit of a murmur
52:10around the crowd
52:11as that single
52:11was taken
52:124 for 475
52:16oh
52:17can you believe it
52:18he's going to be left
52:19parked on 195
52:23and Drizzle's just got
52:25a bit too heavy
52:25as far as the ground
52:27staff and the umpires
52:28are concerned
52:29so the covers
52:30will come on
52:32we're just going to
52:32have to have a little
52:33halting proceedings

53:15plenty of heart

53:18Keshav Maharaj
53:19with the wicket of
53:20Steve Smith
53:21and Simon Harmer

53:24really reflect
53:25how he's bowled
53:26Janssen has kept
