    Lets push on and get them all out for less than 300.

    Although recently we've been really poor at bowling at the tail-end (no pun intended).

    A lead of 100 plus on this pitch is a massive advantage. That variable bounce is only going to get worse, by the fifth day it could be a right minefield to bat on

    Seems that the wicket isn't as poor as the experts suggested during the first day. There is something in it, and weather permitting, there should be a result. Hopefully, an England win!<cheers>

    Bit of variable bounce & the ball was swinging round corners - I wouldn't fancy batting 4th on it.

    No Starc, if his ankle nack is bad enough to keep him off the field then that could be very bad news for Australia

    Edit - he's out there now, wonder if he is fit to bowl though?

    Let's hope for a great start from the openers so we can take the game away from them today..

    England looking good at Tea.

    Bell answered his critics with a lovely 50. Root solid as per usual.

    Letting it slip a little - 8 down for 246.

    Will we get a lead of 400+?

    I think we should consider having Wood open and Cooky moved down to No.9 <laugh>
