Borthwick a much better batsman than Agar Nemo, he's really come on last few years but his legspin has gone the other way.

I know, I was just suggesting that he's got a decent chance of top scoring for someone ostensibly picked as a specialist bowler. He's pretty much a like for like swap for Root really, but been picked for completely different reasons.

Good start, poor finish but even now 320 isn't out of reach. Carberry is an odd selection, but then again, Root hasn't really convinced either.

Stokes looked good again, real risk of him ending the series as our best bowler and best batsman.

Brad Haddin is a source of serious frustration, but stop bloody bowling to his strengths.

Cook gone second ball and Bell dropped next ball. This is could get even more embarrasing, if that's possible.

Delaying tactics going on!  Keep this up and we might get a draw.

14-3, the difference is (as it has been all series)  that the Aussie Middle/lower order has dug them out of the shit almost every time whereas England just fall apart & collapse.
