00:004 for 3 trailing by a massive 463 and Kevin Pedersen
00:05short of cricket, short of time at the crease, short of runs in this series
00:10and with a modest, relatively modest record here at Old Trafford comes to the crease
00:17want to make an impact that's for sure but
00:19which is on the leg side
00:31fine and for 4
00:40yeah Peter Siddle won't mind that
00:43went for the straight ball again to Pedersen
00:46covering it
00:48that inside edge
00:52it was close to being on the stumps but
00:54Pedersen actually played that pretty well
00:56Deane tests
01:134 shot
01:16drive
01:27it's about
01:37hit it well
01:39man at Deane Midwicket
01:41didn't see it so well
01:42Kevin Pedersen saw it well enough
01:45and got a very solid bat on that
01:48and that's what Kevin Pedersen's been looking for early this morning
01:51some sort of thing out of the middle of the bat
01:53a good strike, he likes to feel the ball on the bat
01:55he likes to get a good one away early
01:57tried a shorter one, there's two people out on the hook shot
02:00but it got it well in front even though
02:02deep square leg didn't pick it up
02:05still creamed it and hit it well enough
02:07Kevin Pedersen
02:08whack
02:09uses that word
02:12that's an extraordinary shot
02:14wasn't so short this time
02:15Pedersen's weight was on the back foot
02:20that's pretty much a unique shot
02:23yep, Mitchell Stark just starting to lose his patience
02:25trying the short one, looked pretty good the over before
02:28crowd is saying good morning to David Warner too
02:31or good afternoon
02:33banged in again
02:35in the words of my daughter the Brookster
02:37boom
02:38there it goes again
02:53ooh
02:54aah
03:07gets it through this time
03:09England move on to 101 for 3
03:23swing
03:25where's he going
03:53whack
03:55it's a lovely shot isn't it
03:57nice er
03:58stride to the ball, weight into the shot
04:01the bat absolutely straight
04:03114 for 4
04:06has been trying desperately to get
04:08Kevin Pedersen
04:09on the back foot
04:10getting him
04:11more
04:12half way than fully forward
04:15but whether he has been
04:17half way forward or not
04:20Kevin Pedersen has always been able to drive
04:22straight back down the ground
04:28he can be destructive
04:34done Bumble
04:50down he comes
04:53beautiful shot from Pedersen
04:57good use of the feet
05:00it's ok
05:02ok for Nathan Lyon
05:03Kevin Pedersen as we said right at the start
05:05he comes after the spinner
05:07he gives you a chance, the fly was pretty good
05:10just a fraction full that's all
05:12but Kevin Pedersen is a dangerous player to the spinner
05:14he can come down, he takes you on
05:19that one
05:27really dipping, Lyon's got it dipping
05:30oh he's going to take it on
05:31the field is just coming ever so slightly
05:33Pedersen goes over the top
05:37good shot, good use of the feet again
05:39from Kevin Pedersen
05:41say it again
05:42he never lets the spinner settle
05:44good use here
05:46of the feet
05:47look how quick he gets down there Kevin Pedersen
05:49then a good swing of the bat
05:50strong man
06:00and again
06:03that's another six
06:04Pedersen moves on to 54
06:09oh another biggie
06:136.6 to bring up his 50
06:16talking about that run rate only being
06:18two runs and over
06:20when Kevin Pedersen bats for a while
06:22it's going to go up and up
06:25you see what response we get from Michael Clarke
06:27he's just pumped in for 2.6
06:29keep your eye on the field
06:30Lyon will have something to say
06:32it's mid on
06:33David Warner who's just easing back
06:35towards the boundary
06:36he's probably about
06:377 or 8 metres in from that boundary edge
06:42oh!

09:07oh
09:22oh only two slips
09:25there's that full length
09:26and little bit of movement from Siddal
09:28that we talked about
09:30but wide of second slip
09:312.25 for four
09:35so
09:38edged again
09:39albeit with a bit more control this time
09:41from Pedersen
09:43yeah I think he's
09:45played this with soft hands and
09:48it's just
09:49run away
09:50once you
09:51get three quarters of a bat on it
09:53nothing the fielding side can do
09:55have a look at this
09:56I think he opens the face of it
09:57there you go
09:58that's quite deliberate
10:05oh
10:13gap
10:18oh he's nearly dragged that
10:25that's just
10:26clipped away
10:28leg side moves
10:29Pedersen into the 90s
