    What's the story with Moeen? I know he has a sore digit on his bowling hand, but enough to prevent him from bowling?
    If he doesn't bowl, then who else besides Root can spin?

    I’ve always found test cricket a bit dull but games like this are definitely changing my opinion.

    Aussies have got to be steady in the last session and treat tomorrow as a long, long one dayer.
    Go for glory or bust. They have the players who are adept at the one day game and even T20s.

    So, 281 to win.
    Hard to call, but I make the Aussies favourites.

    Done! 281 to win. One day scenario, but at half the rate.
    Go for it guys!

    Hey Stroller. Apologies mate. This is turning into a super game.
    I did find much of the opening two and a half days tedious, but this ending is well balanced and looks to have enough fluctuation and doubt to make it well worth watching. :emoticon-0148-yes:
    Let's hope this carries on into the rest of the Ashes Tests. :emoticon-0137-clapp

    About right?
    Not being a betting man I'm not offay with these betting terms.
    We'll know better by stumps today. 42 overs left in the day.

    Aussies very slight favourites. Personally I think England are good value

    Aussies slight favourites, but the weather tomorrow will be influential. Let's hope our bowlers get conditions like the Aussies had for that short period yesterday when it was swinging round corners.

    Ali has to go through the pain barrier and let it rip. We desperately need him to get some big turn
