First time he's ever faced 200 balls in an innings.

Most runs ever in a first day in Test cricket at the 'Gabba. Previous best was 364 by Australia in 2002. Third highest of any day at the 'Gabba.
Could be the highlight reel from any day of the last 30 years; teams just don't learn what to do here.

Great to see Khawaja and Burns in the runs, hope they can keep it up and cement spots.

Impressive first day, survived the first session and went on with the job. Had question marks about Khawaja but he has answered them in the best fashion.

Maybe he should step down from his role as Chairman of Spirit & 'things that are none of his fucking business' so he can focus on his captaincy

Did Warner write that for you?
They haven't lost for seven series and didn't get beaten by England like us this year as well as making a World Cup Final. He isn't going too badly.
McCullum did the exact same funky things in England in May and was lauded for being innovative and cutting edge.
Having said that it didn't work yesterday; with underdone bowlers and a new series orthordox would have got the job done yesterday; it unsettled his bowlers.

Warner said the exact same thing 24 hours ago.

Did he? Where? I didn't see or hear that.
And 24 hours ago? So your telling me that Warner made the exact same comment as mine before a ball had been bowled, even though my comment was criticising the ridiculous captaincy decisions McCallum made throughout the first day.
Ermahgerd you guys, Warner is psychic!

Can't believe Australia didn't take these batters to England instead of Watson , Clarke , Rogers

A devastating last session from the Aussies. Superb bowling from all of our main bowlers. Mitch and Mitch with 2 a piece and Hazlewood got the first wicket. In a strong position now. My bet for the draw @$5 is all but gone now.

Johnson now the 28th most Test wickets in history.
