[David Guiza]

Wonder how many innings it would take us, without Stokes, to reach 400+?

At least 3 I think.

[Manwell Pablo]

Yeah This is gone in terms of getting the victory Think, not even enough time to get a lead over them if we could bat, thankfully they are some way of declaring comfortably I think.

 

Hope the weather is garbage and try and hold out for the draw and go again next test is the only option.

 

We cannot drop Smith and hope to win, it's criminal.

[purpleronnie]

It's difficult when your on the receiving end, but smith really is something very special.

[Bobby Hundreds]

Lets be fair, we haven't deserved to win this series, a 2-2 draw would probably still be a bit of blag.

 

Roy isn't an opener nor a slipper, if he fails at 4 he has to be dropped as we'll have nothing to lose if 2-1 down.  

[purpleronnie]

Imagine this team in Australia in 2 years...ouch.

[Guest MattP]

Going to be a seriously tough job saving this match on a day 5 turning pitch. 

[yorkie1999]

we need to bowl fast down smiths leg side and have a couple of leg slips in.

[StanSP]

Smith is just unreal.

It could be on a high school playground with a tennis ball and one stump and most of our batting still wouldn't be able to bat through the day to save a match.

[Stinkenzo]

Just waiting for a "Smith has scored more runs in 4 innings than England players x.y and z in 6 innings combined" stat to go viral

[Finnegan]

Will Aus just get Smith to 200, declare and then smash a few at England tonight while they're tired? 

 

Or will they just stick it out and let the last few build up as many runs as possible?

[Mike Oxlong]

Smith’s got a fvckin annoying face

[Innovindil]

Just about 200 runs too late. 

[EastAnglianFox]

Starc on 25 after about 2 minutes, wonder how many of our batsmen will even score that

[Mike Oxlong]

No panic. 

 

We just need to knock up a quick 800 to put ourselves in the driving seat.

wouldn’t be surprised if they get to 500 despite being into the proper tail end at 438. and still get a bowl at us tonight.

This is brutal

 438 turns to 463 in the time I've made a cuppa

[ScouseFox]

root going for 16 off an over to mitchell starc and he’ll probably bowl him out for less than 16 in about half an hour

[Stinkenzo]

Have faith, Burns and Denly will be here batting this time tomorrow

 

After Australia enforce the follow on

[fuchsntf]

Now it's time for our top 5 batsman to stand up.,!!!

Prove now they have a long innings in them...We aren't going to win this game,but a couple of batsman sitting in and breaking their own records...

Let the weather do the rest....!!

And I am being serious...

We have to find a test team,and I ain't giving up on the present batsman..

They have all proved they can bat...now it's time to hone in the mental-discipline.

2half runs an over by tomorrow night will

Do...
