this is exactly why ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
There has been 1 day of cloud/rain this series really. We took 8 wickets on it.
Therefore, makes perfect sense to aim to be bowling on the 2 remaining days in this test where conditions may be similar.
Plus, Aussie attack is in pieces, not had much rest due to such a short innings. Keep the pressure on the bowlers, they are really the only players that can win this for them.
