    A fantastic start and now the rain s coming in to help as well. I’m not sure why we didn’t bat like this in the first innings instead of being so slow and negative. It’s great to see.

      The rain is a hinderance to us winning this match At 0/135 that score is now very gettable Just need our openers to go out and start again today and put on another 100 and we would be in the box seat I’d love to see us get a record 4th innings score to stick it right up those poms who have done nothing but whinge whine and moan about everything and anything all series

        Totally agree. I'm not sure what the weather forecast is for the last day, but the poms love nothing more than a good whinge. They also like to claim the high moral ground with their bazball and so-called spirit of cricket nonsense. Before this Ashes series they were claiming we need to go to 4 day tests - presumably because they are so good at keeping the score moving quickly THESE DAYS. Yet when the 4th test was washed out they were whinging that the game should be allowed to go till 10pm or have an extra day added. They are classics!

          We only need to draw this match to still win the series.

          Poms need to win for us to still retain but a win or a draw gets us the first series victory over there in 22 years.

            True. So we will go looking for the win but if we start running into trouble we can try and play out the draw.

                Disgraceful umpiring to change a battered ball after 38 overs with a rock hard cherry that looks about 15 overs old when any change is supposed to be one close in condition. Balls swinging all over the place I think we're in a bit of bother.

                  Good to see the poms get a much newer ball to utilise. Very questionable.

                    Lol, we posted at about the same time. Totally agree that it’s disgraceful.

                      I can't believe I just saw that dropped catch from stokes.

                      Crazy.

                        We dodged a bullet with Stokes taking the catch but losing it celebrating. Starting to get very dark I don't know whether we'll get the full days play in. I'll take a draw so we can win the series. Poms have bowled plenty of overs and a couple of them are carrying some battle scars but conditions are suiting bowling.

                          Lucky Ashley Klein isn't a cricket video review umpire- he would have given it out! Some of his calls in the bunker for Penrith/Sharks game were diabolical. I guess at least he is consistent- consistently wrong!
