Talha's Take

This is a big innings personally for Green as well to keep his spot in the team.

Let's see if he can play a big one under immense pressure.

Marnus disaster run continues.

Wonder how many more opportunities he will get? Renshaw is such a great option but Marnus and Green are the "Parchis" of Australian team.

Bangladesh on TOP.

Magnificent Galle Fort ❣️

It's the 50th Test match at this iconic venue.

A copy paste dismissal from 1st innings for Travis Head. He chops it back on as well.

Massive moment in the game.

If Australia can score at least 350 runs in this innings, then Bangladesh will definitely feel the heat chasing those 100+ runs in 4th innings on a tough surface at that stage. Surface is already tricky right now, quite slowish with variable bounce and it will become incredibly tough in 4th innings.

Aussies have a star studded batting line who is known to perform in such pressure situations. Even if Head plays his typical under pressure innings here, things could become tricky for Bangladesh.

Weatherald chops back onto the stumps. Hasan strikes.

9 more to get for Bangladesh.

Bangladesh bowled out for 426 after playing 138 overs. They get a massive 228 runs lead.

Australia has never won a Test match in history after conceding this much lead.

Interesting passage of play coming up ..

This 65(154) innings of Mehidy Miraz is a perfect learning sample for any No.7 Test batter who often gets to bat with tail or for any batter who gets to bat with tail in difficult circumstance for his country.

A Picture Perfect resolute & defiant Knock.

Hats off to this Bangladeshi lower order 🫡

They are showing an exemplary effort here and damaging Aussies mentally. Miraz is the one who is scoring runs as he should be and the tailenders are hanging around to perfection. No bowler has thrown his wicket away so far without any contribution. The lead has swelled to 200 now.

Pakistan lower order has a lot to learn from this 💯
