They will still need to bat into tomorrow, though. They aren't going to set England anything that's gettable.

I can't see England scoring 350 on that pitch against that attack on the 5th day, if Paine trusts his bowlers and the Aussies bat aggressively today they should be safe in this game and have a full day to knock us over. Our bowlers have looked average so far in this match so he should be telling their batsmen to score quickly once they've seen off the new ball...

Archer back to his best. He was well off the pace in the first innings.

Head was stupid to give him the verbals, you don't poke a tiger with a stick...

Like when South Africa hit Devon Malcolm on the head,

Smith finally goes for 82, doesn't look like a declaration this evening so likely to be a near 400 lead. Aussies firm favourites...

 

[jeffranger]

0-1 burns terrible shot

 

[jeffranger]

FFS root out first ball

 

[SW Ranger]

Very very firm favourites now!
