Gilly out for a duck.......a very dubious umpiring decision

Punter gave the 200 a dinkum nudge

A nice little nudge. He was a bit disappointed not to get there.

Not over... just Australia has declared for 602 if my memory serves me well.
The English are 3 - about 67 or so!!!!!

Ok I will try and explain as best I can. I am sure JM would do it better but...
Test cricket is played over five days.
Each team bats twice..(normally)
Australia has had their first time batting and scored 602.
The English are now batting and three of their batsman are out and there score is three out for about 67.
In plain English we are thrashing the cr*^#@$p out of the POMS!!!
