An English style collapse if ever there was one.

Hurts don't it Aussies?

It probably does especially with the way they threw their wickets away today when they were more or less in charge.

They have a lot of homework to do when they get back to Australia and figure out how to get the Ashes back come Dec time:p

Aussies just need to slog now and hope for the best, no point trying to play the long game.

Then they will definitely lose the game:p...might as well roll over though. 2 wickets remaining and they need 96 runs to win, unless Lyon or Siddle make a half century then i dont see the point of them trying to continue to chase the score down.
 
Khawaja and Smith would be average county players. Khawaja looks utter garbage, seems to have neither the ability nor the mentality. Gotta be one of the worst no 3s in world cricket?

Khawaja hasn't been great, but to be fair to him, at least twice he shouldn't have been given out in this series.
 
Lyon gone, Broad with 10 wickets in the test...excellent bowling.

Should have this game done and dusted by the end of play tonight.

Really bad batting performance by the Aussies, honestly thought they would win this when Warner and Rogers put on 100 for the first wicket :/

Yeah but even ignoring those 2 dismissals, he has been very poor along with Watson and to an extent Clarke who hasnt done much other than make that century in the last test. Actually **** it, majority of the Aussie batsmen have been utterly woeful in this series with the exception of a couple:p.

Bell would be the man of the series for me, by far and away the best English batsman in this series.

it's nice to see Broad actually bowling quick to be honest, when he's bowling his military medium late 70s with gentle swing he is ****ing useless.
