0427: Prasad back into the attack.
0424: Peter Siddle gets a rapturous reception. Great man, that Victorian ...
0423: WICKET! WHAT A CATCH! Herath has taken a catch to match Wade's effort yesterday. Hussey skies a shot towards long-on, and Herath had to make up plenty of ground before snatching the ball spectacularly with one-hand. Hussey out for 34, Australia 7/376.
0422: MCG pitch playing exactly according to plan. Good batting deck once you're in. Now the footmarks, as promised by the curator, are coming into play.
Plenty of love for Pup on our Fox Sports Australia Facebook page:

Lachlan Anderson: "Even on half a leg, still best batsmen in the world currently! PUP!"

Darren Brown: "champion. where are the Clarke haters now!"

Ryan Harris: "Freak"

Damian Korda: "Such a better team under Clarke"

Rhys Thomas: "This is getting ridiculous."
0412: Herath v Hussey - great battle. Superb variety from the orthodox spinner. But the duo are picking Dilshan off without any fuss. Plenty of singles on offer.
0405: FOUR! Hussey drives Dilshan for four through covers. Short cover left standing like a statue despite howls from the bowler crying 'catch'.
0355: Dilshan and Herath working in tandem again. Steady as she goes, at the moment. Herath into his 31st over - getting through a pile of work.
0348: not having much luck in the slips region. Hussey edges a Matthews off-cutter for four between second slip and gully. Hussey 22, Johnson 20, AUS 6/356.

Rippersportpro is back for his tea-time say. Partnership is 25 now, good chance for Johnson here alongside Hussey: Now that Johnson is in, I'll say something that I've said before: MJ needs to play is natural game, which is scoring quick runs because if he tries to play like a batsman, it is not going to work. Perfect opportunity for him and Hussey to help Australia grind Sri Lanka into further submission with some quick runs.

0330: Right, we're back underway for the final session. What damage can Sri Lanka restrict Australia to?

Herath's back into the attack - he deserves a wicket!
