The Australians will not want to risk setting England an evenly remotely obtainable total, so they're going to bat on for a while yet. As we have seen, wickets are largely falling because players either cannot defend the short delivery or instead go chasing them. If there is no spinner, it shouldn't be beyond England's powers to bat out the day tomorrow, but they'll have to show uncharacteristic restraint.Think a draw is looking less and less likely now. The weather is set fair for the rest of today and tomorrow so that probably counts the draw out.
-8.5 overs so far!Yeah slow play field back
Fortunately you didn't have to wait 3 hoursI’d honestly rather just lose with honour than watch Carey and Green duck under short balls for another three hours.
True. Suppose it depends if we can get these last 3 Australian wickets quickly but they’ve been batting at a snail’s pace in this session. Suppose if they bat deep in to the evening session that’s when the draw starts to come into play.The Australians will not want to risk setting England an evenly remotely obtainable total, so they're going to bat on for a while yet.
