So if you were the captain , how many would you,want before declaring ?
Personally, I would want to get out there in the morning and swing the bat for a lead of 350.
I'd be quite happy batting steadily until half an hour before tea, by which time we'll be all out with a lead of 400 plus. I don't see a need to rush things, there's plenty of time left, the pitch is starting to take spin with some uneven bounce too. I don't think it's a bad idea to give our tail a decent chance of having as easy a batting session as they will ever get in a test match.Personally, I would want to get out there in the morning and swing the bat for a lead of 350.
I'd not be surprised if we were all out soon after lunch and bowl them out before the end of the day. Unfortunately I've got to spend the day being pleasant to relatives so won't get much chance to follow it.
