Just got up and a cracking session for England. Back in the game, if not on top. Could well have them out for -300 here, top stuff. Who was the top bowler, Finn or Swann?

Australia SHOULD have other options. The problem is we have no options because our side was mismanaged throughout the last year and no new promising players were given afew games to see how they stand as replacements/backups. Look at most of the other sides throughout the world and they have new players who've played a handful of tests and are pushing for a permanent spot. What has Australia got other then a back up keeper, an opener with poor technique who can't play in the middle order and a leg spinner or batsmen who noone can decide what he should be doing and isn't really up to scratch playing in the proper middle order. Anyway that's my feeling on the side.

I have to say this is a fantastic Test pitch. The quality of cricket it's produced has been above and beyond all predictions.

Oh yeah I agree massively. It's been good for batting but it's done just enough to keep the bowlers interested the whole way through. Most importantly, it's been pretty quick and has good carry.

Australia definitely needs a lead on first innings, unless there is a super bowling effort in the 2nd innings from the Aussies.

Yeah this pitch is not going to be fun to bat on Day 4/5.

Outstanding from Muss, needs another 50 minimum.
