Burns is watchful and sees the rest of the over out. A brief lull in proceedings.
Tidy from Burns off his pads, and good running turns that into two. Yasir none too impressed.

A politician, of course.

SHOT! Burns down the wicket, over midwicket and away for another boundary. Lovely batting.
Where did applause come from? Who was the first person to see something they liked and start bashing their hands together to show that appreciation? Why wasn't that person thrown in an old-timey asylum and denounced as a witch or something?
Anyway, there's a lot of that going on at the Gabba today.
Yasir Shah is a world-class spinner, but he must hate coming to Australia.
The leggie has an enviable Test record, with 203 wickets from 36 Tests at an average just under 29. That's between 5 and 6 wickets per Test. But when he comes Down Under, he looks like a different man.
In three previous Tests in Australia, Yasir has eight wickets at an average of 84, featuring innings figures of 3-207 (his best), 2-129, 1-167 and 1-124. Today he's 0-22 and Azhar Ali even opted to give part-time off-spinner Iftikhar Ahmed a crack at the batsmen before his apparent star tweaker.
 It's been said 8 billion times, but Shane Warne wasn't just great because he spun it a long way; he also combined it with dip, bounce and drift to make batting a living hell. Yasir's particular style is so predicated on turning the ball and skidding it through, and without many devastating variations on his stock ball, that's a recipe to cop a pasting at most grounds in this big brown land.
Afridi to Warner, who cuts past backward point for one, and spots a misfield, turning back hurriedly for a second!

End of the first over after lunch.
And here come the pretzels Warner and Burns into the middle. We're all set for the second session in bright noon-time sunshine.This large, recently refreshed to near mint condition, 3 B/R upstairs/downstairs townhouse occupies a great position in a tidy & very centrally located complex; it’s near the entrance – with little traffic noise - and effectively only one adjoining neighbour, so privacy is maximized.
But, don’t think car parking for yourself, or visitors, is constricted like most complexes; you have a single auto lock-up garage with an additional off street park, plus two visitor parks within 5 metres.
The Body corporate rates are very reasonable, great management and facilities…and…the eight solar panel system will save you a bundle on your electricity bill all year round. Plus, personal safety is enhanced by the security screens and doors throughout.
The ground level is larger than today’s minimalist townhouse designs, where the carpeted lounge/dining areas give entrée to a private, covered outdoor area. Facing north and collecting cool breezes, the elevated views and foliage provide the ideal ambiance for that morning ‘cuppa or that chilled relaxing wine at 5 o’clock, as the BBQ gently sizzles away in the background. You ARE home, so kick off the shoes and relax! Big HINT: Make sure you are at the open home as this configuration is highly sought. It will sell quickly.
With a handy powder room on the ground level & the laundry at the back of the garage, it is well designed. The attractive kitchen will accommodate a large refrigerator and has a wall oven, electric cooktop and a Dishlex dishwasher. The benchtops provide good working space and the cupboard space is ample.
adequate ‘cool’ on even our hottest days.
