Everything going very wrong for England here.
Mate - If they post 450 we've still got a full innings to pick off, what? 120?

Chin up, man. :)

Wood bowling poorly for me. Too much leg side stuff.

England have the Aussie curse, spraying balls all over the shop. Not in control and hence conceding too many quick runs.

Yes of course the game position is in our favour. If they carry on scoring like this though very quickly they could turn it around.

It's ok Aussies throwing it away again. Shocking that from Warner. Simply no excuse.

One brings two....I couldn't care less if the next 8 were all out "Hit Wicket". Don't mind how we get them.

Clearly my playing the game for 30-odd years taught me nowt. One seems to bring four. I put this down to inflation.

So, 241-7 at stumps. That's about 90 needed to draw level for their tail enders. I think we might be keeping the Ashes. :D

great to see stokes in the wickets..

when anderson and broad are not getting them - finn steps up

when anderson gets crocked - broad steps up

when broad's not getting them - up steps stokes...
