aye - and root's gone now... somewhat dodgily possibly...

There was varying degrees of appeal from Australia. Bowler Marsh and second slip Adam Voges were convinced, keeper Nevill and second slip Michael Clarke didn't even go up. To reiterate, nothing on Hot Spot, Root given out on the evidence of Snicko. Further replays show how it took about five Australia fielders to convince Clarke to review. The upshot is this; Ben Stokes is the new man, England need this red-haired pair to dig them out of a big hole.

Christ, I'm beginning to think us posting was the only thing *stopping* them getting wickets.

Is this the most topsy turvy series ever?

On that basis, you clearly weren't posting often enough!

it's still only day three... in theory we could smack 500 and declare an hour before lunch on day 5 - then give them a real testy time with a deteriorating pitch and nerves-a-jangling...

alternatively - London party tonight it is! :-)
