Just imagine the world with all those upsides, when the ultimate disaster doesn't happen! :-)

I've also got horrible visions of Lyon hitting the winning runs off Stokes...

The problem is Moeen is too hurt to really bowl. Stokes is grimacing every ball. Fully fit and I think we’d win this easily. But we are just too limited. Shame they don’t have subs in cricket. 5 overs from Wood might do.

Feels like they're trying to up it. Tough pitch to go mega hard on. Come on!

Did say Root would be a danger on here. Going to be tight.

Anyone can get a wicket, but if you're looking for that bit different without Wood/Archer, Stokes is it.

C'mon you Whites, make it count now.

Sorry we are throwing this away. Bowl at the stumps at these tailenders with the new ball. Blown it.

Well played Australia. Really have thrown this away by keeping the old ball and letting them hit root for 14.

Shame.

Australia played well but Stokes has to take the blame there. The idea of trying to bounce out tailenders may have worked first innings but was never the right play today. A brilliant test and let’s be honest we are a fit bowling attack away from winning it comfortably. But thems the breaks.

Lords next. And we always lose there. So that’s the Ashes done.
