Are they failing to produce decent cricketers in Australia? Seems to be the same old names every series.

For those watching, how many wickets were tossed away today?

From memory Head, Carey, maybe Green if you're really harsh. The rest was just high quality bowling.

We will go after him more! We know England they never take a step back they take one forward

I'm not sure Crawley playing a drive at a ball that's not there for the drive, or Duckett playing across the line at one that's full and straight is the smartest cricket, and will be even less smart if it's repeated. I don't see a threat other than Starc. If he doesn't take wickets with the new ball England win the test.

Never stops them doing it next time they might get a 50

And Root learns how to bat. He is having a mare.

Out to possibly the best delivery from Starc?

I feared the worst after waking up to seeing England all out for 172. I thought Australia would have been close to parity with four wickets lost at most. But what a fantastic fightback from England led by Stokes.

We need to get their last wicket quickly tomorrow and try to press home our advantage.

I know pace isn’t everything but this must be the fastest bowling attack we’ve ever taken over to Australia. It’s impossible not to be impressed so far.
