It's still like climbing Everest, for your last two batsmen. In fact, correct that: it's like climbing K2. In the dead of winter. And without fixed ropes.

(Been reading a fascinating book on mountain climbing this summer, something in which I had no previous interest whatsoever.)

If they were to pull this off (I don't even like to say it), it would be one of the single greatest achievements in all of Ashes history.

Yeah that's it, been coming but Leach gave us hope.

Makes you wonder why they never put Leach in last night when the first wicket went down. Don’t care how much time was on the clock.

Ohfor fuck's sake! As soon as I start typing something, a wicket falls!!

Signing off.

Well in Leach, better than our top order. Got no confidence in Broad.

Carried his bat...

It is the top order that has constantly let us down. In this and the other matches in the series. The tail enders and to some extent the middle order have made a it into a scrap. Hats off to them.

Pathetic batting

Major changes needed
