I am delighted that Amir Jamal got man of the match. This test series has been great to watch

Has batting suddenly become illegal at the ?

A 5/10 collapse? Amateurs.

It looks like the Pakistani bowlers bowl waaaay better to tailenders than the Australian bowlers. But do they field better to the tail-end?

Marsh out! This is a gripping game!

Pakistan is continuing their practice if snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. Marsh and Carey are now looking good after Marsh was dropped and the new ball was taken despite them pinning the batsmen down with the old ball.

Are there any rules about a fielding side being forced to take the new ball after xx overs? I would have held off taking the new ball as long as possible. But there is no way I would be playing internatuinal cricket, so saying what I would do is rather ridiculous.

If they work hard on their fielding and the administration supports them, this young Pakistani side could become world-beaters in a couple of years. Rizwan's wicket-keeping has been impressive, Hamza and Jamal's bowling has been good and can only improve with experience.

Beautiful day in #Melbourne today. We are watching #AUSvPAK #cricket with the bifold doors open. Temperature is pretty near perfect.

Credence Clearwater Revival's 'Have you ever seen the rain?' was playing on the MCG speakers as the MCG pitch was covered by grounds staff.

And the remnant Bay 14 crowd are now singing every team's footy song.

We are enjoying standing watching the rain and luxuriating in doing nothing.

Now the Bay 14 crowd are getting ridiculous - singing 'Barmy Army'.

Me thinks they need to compose some originals.

Admirable work by the grounds staff to get the wicket and approaches covered in good time.

Are we going to get more play?

Lights are on at the MCG as the storm approaches. The wind is picking up and has changed direction. Now the flags are pointing towards us.

Rhe temperature is dropping and the sky is darkening. The umpires on ground have been given jackets. In the crowd we are keeping a close eye on the radar as we watch thunderstorms coming ever closer to the MCG.

Have been sent to bed by the cat. Was happy to go: TNT's policy of running the adverts the moment the sixth ball of the over leaves the bowler's hand makes the cricket unwatchable. Listening to the radio coverage, ABC's adverts are infrequent and don't feel intrusive.

Attacking field for the Australians facing the bowling of Shaheen Afridi. Very difficult conditions for the batsmen and beautiful bowling by Afridi.

One day I'd like to see Steve Smith dismissed and walk off, nodding in acceptance. 'Yes, a great decision. Well adjudicated, my fine man. I admire your keen judgement and savvy application of the Laws of the game. I acknowledge your finger and accept its ruling.'
