Looks like it’ll be down to Root again to try and pull us out of the shit.

 

[M18CTID]

Even Starc can afford to have a day off from taking wickets today!

 

[Gabriel]

After the fiasco in Perth, this was a must not lose Test, particularly given the prickly and stubborn response to criticism. ‘Trusting our processes’ is going to ring ever more hollow if they capitulate again.

 

[Manchester_lalala]

That’s that then.

 

[rowarta]

game over

 

[jaiguruKun]

It's the hope that kills you.

 

[johnny crossan]

time for glint of steel and helmet Ben - see it through to stumps and take a 250 lead tomorrow

 

[dadnlad]

stokes wont last long

 

[waspish]

That’s unlucky in this situation up against it, that is an exceptable out!

 

[Whether or not]

Can’t they just concede the ashes and come home. Pitiful.

 

[dadnlad]

good job archer can bat were still in this

they'll let us draw game when series done to give us hope next time

 

[blue b4 the moon]

That first test will end up being the highlight of the series with us still being in with a good chance after 3 innings have been completed.

These TNT comms are falling over themselves to write us off - 'all but impossible task' pathetic

 

[dadnlad]

You reckon it isn't?

get through to close and we should be able to get at least another 300 tomorrow if these two bat as they can for a couple of sessions in the hot sun.

 

[MillionMilesAway]

I take full responsibility for Root's wicket - first ball after turning it on. Not sure why the umpire didn't give it out.

Just caught up on the others. Two in almost identical fashion, no foot movement, driving what looked like on the up and on the wrong line.

Duckett's had two blameless low scores.

Now Brook is swinging at wide ones...

Admire your belief.
