Surprise, surprise, Smith calls for a DRS. The ball hit him shin high in front of middle and there was daylight between bat and pad.

Aussies not finishing well, but that's still a winning score.

Yes, but the stigma lives on. They're remembered more for their transgressions than for their considerable ability. Had Warner been disciplined by the authorities earlier in his career perhaps he'd be now respected for the talented player he is.It took intervention by the prime minister before CA took any action.

as long as Bangladesh get to face the requisite number of overs, Aus have a very good chance. What is the minimum number of overs to constitute a match, 15?

If it gets finished, it's tossing it down now.

Quite a lot of time can be lost before overs are reduced. Forecast is fine in Nottingham today.

No.

Warner was not respected by most anyway, Australians included. But also no to the PM comment. Pure conjecture - and wrong, imo.

Sun is out, outside my window!

Might be the odd shower, but they are going to become infrequent over the afternoon.

I never said he was respected.
You're undoubtedly in a better place to comment than I. Is it not fact that, despite his many demeanours, he was never disciplined by CA until after the Prime minister publicly condemned his behaviour.

The target is a massive 382.

Target the 4th and 5th bowler. Those 20 overs could get messy. Or Zampa could play a blinder.

Shakib's gone. That's a big argument for an Aussie win.
