WI target is 137.

that is a gettable target.....I think

How is the coverage and quality?

[mikesiva]

I missed the Saffer innings, but it sounds like this was a difficult pitch to bat on....

On top of that, the WI tail looks long.

Bally,

Coverage and quality is pretty good.

14-0 after 2.

Commies are saying alot about the batting difficulties on this pitch.

Fletcher out. Duck.
