Looking at PJ's innings he really never looked like getting out but never at any stage looked to up the run rate, I think if he's going to bat like that he should open or bat 3, otherwise he'll run out of partners like he did today.
Not worried about Wellington's control but yes Mavuta might struggle, we really need to make sure we get some early breakthroughs and put some pressure on them, we're in a great spot given the fact we will bowl last on this deck, need to make sure we have something to bowl at.

There is one way BD avoids batting last. And that is by posting 450+ in their innings which is possible given the pitch is still pretty flat.

I'm expecting the BD top 4 to pulverize our bowling and make our cautious batting over 110 overs look ridiculous and get a big enough lead to force an innings defeat before end of day 4.
