Long way to go based on the fact I doubt you'd get much beyond lunch.
Think you're right. Was hoping Bresnan and Swann could have added another 50 to give the team that wins it a bit more to do!

Sounds like there is a fair bit of rain about this afternoon, so might get a decent chunk of play tomorrow.
New ball didnt do much in the 5 overs England bowled, and England have already squandered a review!

Even Stevens now with Clarke out. Aussies need 124 runs, England need 6 wickets. England might regret the waste of two reviews.

Another gone...from 174-3 to 181-7.
And to think, we used to collapse like this.

Collapstastic. When I last looked we were certain losers! One to go, 87 runs to play with!

Still think we win this Test.
Great sides don't change a great deal...we are unbeaten in three this series and Bairstow could come good. Took Bell years to get to where he is now....Carbs for one day no doubt...Test player i am not so sure.

Another reason why Bairstow should stay. Who else is there to back up Prior if he gets injured during a match Great team we have got now.

Whatever happens at OT there are two more tests to hammer them and drive home our superiority.
One to go..

I suppose losing the last 7 wickets for 50 runs when they were favourites to win when they were 109-0 is a bit of a choke. That 7 defeats in the last 8 tests.
Now to make it 4-0 at the Oval...
