The worry Clarke has is that if they do achieve the follow-on, I don't think his bowlers are physically fit enough to bowl through for another innings immediately. Harris in particular has a history of breaking down and was starting to look leggy towards the end yesterday. Watson too. Harris could be replaced by Bird for the next test, but Watson's extra overs help balance the side. He hasn't taken a wicket here, but he doesn't go for many and could/should have had KP today.

It's got the making of another fascinating day of test match cricket today. Australia doing well for a couple of days has brought what was turning into a dull series with little to discuss other than technology and pub brawls to life a bit

Prior has turned up this morning. England to not only avoid the follow on but make 400 plus and secure a draw as god gets involved.

I'd like an hour or so of Swanny and Prior smashing it round the ground.
