Good test batting. If you can be none-for close to 100 at lunch then it doesn't matter how fast you started. Even 0-70 is a good result. We're at 0-67 in the 19th over, couldn't ask for more.

Couldn’t agree more, doesn’t matter what juice is in the deck. A half volley, is a half volley..

Well on top here thanks to some wonderful aggressive stroke play. This first session could prove invaluable in the wash up.

What a collapse towards the end of the session. In real danger of not making 200

Quite possibly. Those first 100 runs look even better now.

The three day Test Match could be on.
