Well batted Curran. The openers are motoring along. Seems the pitch has improved.
Ya i think it has but they've bowled poorly also. Plenty slot balls.

It's raining hard my side, I'm sure there's minutes before rain hits HSC
Same here. I think we will get a result though. A massacre so far

Clearly Curran has come out with a point to prove with regards to his scoring rate. He clearly has the shots, but the pressure he must be feeling has probably made him go into his shell slightly. Those straight drives are world class

Brian Bennett has got so much time. Makes it look very easy when defending the ball. A major glitch for him though is the fact he doesn't get his head over that front foot too much when driving the ball. Something to work on though as he develops

Superb from these two. Nice to have an injection of youth succeeding at the top of the order. They've had some good partnerships this series. Long may it continue.

Is this likely to be a passing shower or is it going to play havoc with us potentially getting a result?

100+ opening partnership with Curran scoring a 50 this is beautiful so far. Need the rain to stay away until we get a result and get this damn series win.
