Barring a miracle, the Aussies will have a very gettable target.
Too many England batsmen getting out when set.
 
He probably won’t but it makes me feel better nonetheless.
For me he has the status of John Terry and I just want to smash his face in every time I see him.
Wow. John Terry! That's a bit too much mate. No-one comes near that fcker.
But, good to hear that makes you feel better. We all know some git that we love to hate and letting off steam in a non-violent way is always a good thing.
There you go mate. Smith just dropped a catch. I'm sure that help you calm.

Dunno why I hate him so much…I just do.
Probably his face or his whining personality….or that he’s a proven cheat.
Pick one

I suppose he does have a face that looks like his facial bones have divorced his skull. And a sack full of lemons have been squeezed in his mouth. :emoticon-0120-doh:
He does look like a cross between Frank Burns from M*A*S*H and Alfred E Newman (MAD).
So hold your punches mate. Judging by his acting in commercials, cricket is all he has going for him. :emoticon-0102-bigsm

We should declare now.

Aussies haven’t successfully chased this much in an Ashes since 1948.
I reckon Stokes is pissed that he declared too early in the first innings. So he's being overcautious this time. He'll declare at the fall of the next wicket or at tea. Gives England a day and a session to take the match.
 
This is a far better batting wicket than previously seen at Edgbaston.
These are vital runs.

Then Robinson chips it tamely to long on.

Hopefully tomorrow's weather will be bowler friendly.
 
Well I was wrong. Doesn't happen too often. :cheesy:
No declaration yet. You might be right Staines. Stokes going for the psychological approach,
going for 300 and tiring the Aussies at the same time while Robinson gets a rest.
