Made it to day three

 

Shambles of an innings & had high hopes of winning this series! Doesn’t look like it now, let Aussies score far to many runs in their innings

 

Day four actually...

 

Oh yeah.

 

Bat two sessions tomorrow, get a lead of 150 and skittle them out in the dark. 35/1 get on.

 

Probably be over the time I wake up but hopefully not

 

Set your alarm early so you're not disappointed

 

Two England batsmen playing with caution and they'ye managed to bat through a session without a wicket falling. This is where Stokes is at his best.

Now 211-6 and a lead of 34. Get through another session and it's on.

 

Jacks gone, but he's batted well in this Test.

Stokes batting with the tail and Australia have blown all their reviews.

 

Oh dear.

 

Love how our tail can hang around like theirs.

 

Catches win matches. Smith may deserve to be in Guantanamo Bay but the catch off Jacks changed the game and probably made the difference between them winning in 10 overs by nine wickets and winning in 25 overs by seven wickets.

 

Start with 4 wides. Tremendous Archer.

 

But that's not bazzball.

 

Two for Atkinson.

 

****ing brilliant, let Smith hit the winning runs again.

 

A valiant effort towards the 3-2 win. We go again.

 

Yes, that was not missed by myself.
I did like his determination though.
