It's clearly not been a great innings so far but I don't think it's been awful, we could do with some more wickets but we've not let them really get going, every time they've tried to put their foot down we've had an over or 2 to slow it down again. They have the wickets in hand to be able to go really aggressive but at least they're not doing it with a massive score already up.

When Khawaja and then Finch went they'd have had in their mind that they need to score at 9-10 an over for the rest of the innings and, with new batsmen at both ends, it's created the pressure that's led to the wickets.
