England would be ****ed without Root, Broad and Anderson. Absolutely ****ed.

Stokes needs to start contributing more with bat and ball.

Good lad Stokesy.

In the bag no question. It's only a matter of if this ball continues to swing after cucumber sandwiches and Earl Grey.

I reckon these two can bat through until Monday. Clarke's due a big score

Job done.. Clarke.. Gone!
However, still don't think we'll get the chance to invoke the extra 30mins at the end of scheduled play today..
Voges looks well set!

If the Aussies manage to get a one run lead before being bowled out, will England have to bat?

Didn't know if the Aussies would just forfeit

With 3 wickets to go it's highly doubtful they will get 90 runs.

But hey the people not getting their weekend of cricket (ffs the prem is starting why would you go to cricket) deserve a bit of a day of cricket so at least let them play til lunch eh?

They should just declare if they are 9 down and still behind.

 

[Tobes]

They should just declare if they are 9 down and still behind.

That simply wouldn't be cricket

 

[Super G Ted'inho]

I'm sure that would go down well down under lol

 

[moreinjuredthanowen]

They should just do a rain dance then go nuts and club broad to death with their bats.

Its almost as if England cricket team knew they had to wrap up the Ashes by 12.45 today.
