If we get another 20 or so tomorrow without knackering Archer might be a fun match

Another 70 would be very interesting but unlikely
 
Aussies looking far too comfortable, if they carry on like this they'll be out of sight by end of play. We have to hope the night time play helps our bowlers as they're ineffective so far...
 
Not looking good unless you're an Aussie.... 270/3 and batting looking fairly easy.....
 
Short of 150 overs in 2 days. Why don't they just keep going until the full quota has been bowled? It's not as if It's going to get any darker.

Saw quite a good suggestion that slow bowling should be penalised by adding the missed overs at the run rate the batting team scored at. They very openly took the piss yesterday.
 
Looks like the Aussies weren't impressed by Archer turning up with a pillow this morning and have decided to make him stay in the field all day.
 
Aussies rubbing it in now, they'll bat till it's dark and then Starc will have a new ball to torment us with. We'll be lucky to get one draw in this series...
