just blabbing on during that third umpire review. Gaffaney said 'yep, there's a puff of dust' and before he could finish his sentence Nicholas was going 'yeah look there's a puff of dust!'

I love the RPM meter on the Sky broadcast for Nathan Lyon's overs.

God help us. Sky are going to be prepping the "biggest run chases to win a test match" graphic soon aren't they.

Great from Nasser, praises Lyon then he goes for 2 boundaries in 3 balls.

Yeah, and even Root himself lived a really charmed life before he got to 10. Was beaten by Starc inswingers a couple of times and hit on the pads/midrift but Starc was bowling too short to trap him in front, then of course he was dropped. I don't want to go all FCA because he was awesome after that and deserves credit for it, but if Australia's bowlers/catchers were on top of their games I think he probably would've been gone early as well.
Both teams have played good cricket on Days 2 and 3 IMO, with England playing very good cricket today, but the difference in the game really lies in the fact that England were patchy on Day 1 while Australia were genuinely poor. Given we're rolling on in from a 5-0 whitewash, if Australia had actually played well on Day 1 here I think we'd be looking at a very different Test.
England are on top because they've played well for most of the game, but Australia definitely had it in their power to be well on top had they played to their usual standard on the first day IMO.

Actually think anyone who mentions it before lunch on day 4 should be infracted

Still holding a fair amount of intrigue if Australia can strike quickly here... being a neutral fan I'm still just hoping for an exciting full 5 days, heh.

Tough chance but would have been huge.

Pretty sure he said Josh Buttler btw. Holding does not recognise Jos as a real name.

It's not so much that Siddle's reputation has grown, it's more like Johnson's reputation has shrunk... like private parts in an April sea.
