WTF are they doing starting on a Wednesday?!?!?!? - sigh, better late than never...Who dropped what?
Pope dropped Warner at slip.
Thanks. They dropped a few first test, too, but that's no reason for us to make it all uphill by doing more of the same...

And yeah Jimbo, excellent win for Lancy.

I think ‘it’s not happening for England at all on this series’ is a bit of an overstretch. While not perfect at Edgbaston we were close to winning the game. We’ve had an underwhelming 90mins here.

I think the dropped catches helped make the game more exciting last time, so we’re probably aiming for the same again here.

Just has that feel to me. We always feel just a little below where we need to be to control these matches. We came close at Edgbaston but feels like not winning there was critical. And always felt ever so slightly short there to me.

Putting them in we needed to be 50-3 not 50-0. Australia usually do well at Lords.

Pretty frustrating right now. England really need to dig much deeper and find a slightly fuller length consistently.

Australia will be delighted. The wicket before lunch opens the door though for England. But I mean we need 4/5 next session to realistically be in this match. Have to bowl the Aussies out today having put them in. If they carry the bat then they'll be right on top so essential we get rid of them today assuming a full day's play.

A score above 300 and Aussies will be hugely dominant.

Not happening for England in this ashes at all for whatever reason. It just isn’t.

Slight bit of extra pace is making this look a tricky wicket to bat on.

England need to dismiss these two sharpish.

Do you mean "any" or "will there be enough?"

Look we don't care what happens first innings, we'll just have to knock 600 on our first go....

The recent test results are regularly the work of a couple of players making big scores rather then team input.....unfortunately in our case....
