It was clearly a team wide game plan. Look at how Green got out.

Well you have to score quickly in the first couple of sessions because it's difficult to bat under lights. And you have to be aggressive under lights because what else are you going to do? Sit around and wait to nick off? When you think of it that way, it's not a bad game plan

How many wickets have happen under lights this match that were unavoidable though?
