Days 4 & 5 look like a write off

One down. Hope there's enough dry days for a result.

Welp, looks like we're buggered like a spare arse at an arse buggering contest.

Smith gone, Australia slump to 3 for 120, it's a classic collapse!

600 for Broad

The plucky Australian underdogs limp to 5 for 254! Amazing scenes after their earlier collapse!
*edit*
Green is out, 6 for 254! A shocking upset for Australia!

Bairstow in actually-catching-the-ball-for-a-change shocker! Amazing scenes!

Strange move imo putting them into bat on a wicket where they make 300+. Stokes says its the best way to 20 wickets given the forecast and while its obviously hard to argue with that I also feel it puts in England in a position where it is going to be very difficult to lose the game. Rather than batting first, risk being skittled before tea and finding themselves in a position where a draw may be difficult.

I was hoping for 350, but at this rate, even 315 will be a miracle.

Almost.

That no ball was a doozy! I can't help thinking we'd be at ~470 by now if we hadn't lost that review yesterday.

This last-wicket stand is very annoying. It could be huge. Jimmy is pretty accurate but is just so innocuous.
Really looking forward to seeing the Ozzie pacers vs. our top batsmen.
