Yeah, it's up to each individual Craig to put in the hard yakka if they want to improve.
After such a great start we've stuffed up a bloody good advantage, we were 280 odd for 3... aggravated me that other than Conway & Nicholls the others haven't contributed with the bat much at all, we also...
Superb double hundred by Conway Craig... not great though that we've let the Poms back into the match.

Scoreboard ...
Yeah, he was pretty unfortunate... don't favour ducking down though, if you're standing tall you're in a better position to play the ball if it keeps low or sway out the way if it's head height.
We've given a good advantage away, to be fair though batting wasn't that easy this morning, Conway is in great touch but he even struggled in the first session... Jamieson has looked solid, need him & Conway to put a good partnership together to get near 400.
Thought Pucovski played a shot at a well directed bouncer though which is always pretty risky, I'm talking more about leaving a bouncer that's well directed at a batsman.
Not really worried about those tweeks... more about the stupid comments Robinson makes in general.
Yeah, as an older player he's going to have better composure than a young fella that just starting his Test career - whether Conway stands tall or ducks down when it comes to bouncers the key is to keep his eyes on the ball all the way through.
Robinson is only playing in his first test yet he...
Use to play a lot of football, rugby, cricket & tennis... at college on a Saturday I use to play football in the morning & rugby in the arvo over winter 🙂
I'll see if I can find those German National Championships in different sports over the weekend mate :thumbsu: ...we don't get free-Tv sport...
Yeah, he did brilliantly on the first day Craig, hope he can continue & go on & make a really big one - he hasn't really got a weakness, has all the shots, accept against the short pitched stuff as you say, like a lot of other Test batsmen he ducks down & then takes his eyes off the ball at the...
Craig - great 136no by Conway on the first day... 246-3 at stumps.

Scoreboard ...
Don't think it was harsh at all... the ball is moving about a bit, but Latham movements weren't positive enough & didn't get in line with the ball, he showed that by having a big gap between bat & pad.
😄
Yeah, Conway has played a couple of loose shots, other than that has played really well in the first session so far, can see him & Williamson putting some really big partnerships together in the future.
