England doing well against some decent fast bowling, 42-1 at 1st drinks break

Cook playing nicely, Mitchell bowling RAPID !!!

 

[Mulletperm]

Oh dear

 

[markysimmo]

Decent fightback from England, Root again looking one of the most in form players in the world

 

[markysimmo]

That drop on 0 from Old Man Brad could prove costly

 

[markysimmo]

100 for Roooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooot

207/4 England, good base after a brick start

 

[markysimmo]

274/4 Root & Stokes playing very nicely, Aussies trying to use up a few overs with their make do bowlers

 

[Notmegov]

Barmy Arms getting to mitch

343/7 at stumps shame Buttler went out late on but a fantastic days cricket to watch, if England can get another 30 or 40 to,orrow they could be in the box seat

I see Johnson is still chucking the ball.

Has nobody pulled him up on that yet?

He is very Thommo like, I cant see its chucking though

 

[markysimmo]

Fantastic first hour from England, 80 odd runs for only one wicket, Ali has been superb, 70 odd coming in at number 8, poor Mitchell coping some right stick

 

[Notmegov]

Be over the moon with 450 ish, in fact i am over the moon with 400, considering where we were yesterday morning.

 

[markysimmo]

430 all out

Starc with one of the worst 5 fer's in cricketing history, was dreadful for 99% of his overs

 

[scaramanga]

He's virtually on the horizontal some balls.

It may be some time ago now but my coaches would have called every single one of those as a nb

 

[Superted]

Oooooooohhhhhhh

 

[markysimmo]

Aussies about 160 odd behind with 5 wickets left, a good first hour tomorrow and England could be in the box seat

 

[LutonSpurs]

Moeen had a good day and Roots century was a different class. Need something from Jimmy and Broad tomorrow.

 

[Jurgen the German]

I've wondered how he gets away with it also.

Its nothing new. Our top order's been poor for a while (apart from Smith) and been saved so many times by Haddin and the tail having a wag, especially Johnson.

Not over by a long shot.
