Ashes Test #3 - Perth Test
Well australia has a commanding 2-0 Test series lead heading into Today's Test in the lovely city of Perth.
38 Degrees today, and not much relief on the way !
Austraila has lost 3 wickets already, but the game is still too early to call.
Ps. Thoughts on Watson - time to go, such a soft dismissal today ...

Watson needs to go sadly. I love his slog sweep and commanding off-drives but he's not test material.
Who to replace Watson is the bigger question?

Wow what andnup and down day.. Aussies did well to get through the day with only 6 down. Well done smith and Hardin . again .. And Johnston chipping in at the end...
If Watson fails again 2nd innings might be ghood night ... Now the tough part to find someone to replace.. Maybe KB could . :-) Maybe move Clarke up and bring someone in the middle order ?

An interesting, pretty even honours way, maybe australia slightly ahead.
Tomorrow's first session should be defining either way and setup the rest of the day ...
On who should replace watson - may Faulkner - shame he got injured...

so did watson just save his spot?
and those cracks are mighty wide, will be very hard for england to save the test now

Ian Bell can still ruin the whole thing, something needs to be mixed in his coffee if he doesn't get out tonight ;)

Wicket cracking so much was a pity, but that is the waca!

I was getting nervous towards the end but glad that they were able to wrap it up.
