    Just watched the highlights. A day for the bowling attack. Phenomenal from Starc, and England respond superbly. Could still go either way but ifEngland knock that last wicket over for no more than 5-10 runs, which they should, they have the edge. At least it won't be a draw!!

    If England knew how to play a decent shot once in a while, this game would be put to bed. Gifting wickets away..... again!

    I think the Aussies are just too good. Always have been and always will be. ;)

    Well obviously not at the important game (Football).

    Only at the little game (cricket).

    Alastair Cook faced more balls in his double hundred in Brisbane 2010 than England faced in both innings combined today.

    What a ridiculously brainless cricket side we have.

    Would help make it a contest at least if any batsmen with 3 lions on their shirt knew you could leave a ball or two from time to time.

    Well, I must say root has steadied the ship here. Well done mate! If the poms can get to 300 here and get a couple early wickets tomorrow, there might be a chance. From an Aussie stand point, I can't believe they haven't gone with a recognised spinner in the bowling attack.
