Do we bother coming back out in the morning or just get bowling?

might as well declare before broads nose gets broke

Come out anyway. The team batting at the start of play gets to decide whether to use a heavy or light roller

 

[Adorable Asshole]

Clutch Anderson sixes is what England needs

Well clutch fours are good enough

I remember Tendulkar being given out helmet before wicket…..and it was actually hitting the stumps.

no that was shoulder, not helmet

Let Jimmy have a free license to come out swinging.

 

[Gob]

100 more than what can be chased

Is this sarcasm

 

[loterry1994]

Real question is will Australia try go for this win or try bat for a draw and hope for rain on day 5

 

[Gob]

Overheads a bigger deal than the pitch. There's a little turn but not a huge amount, and it's very placid for seamers. What you expect on Day 3 ofc

Yeah I'm sure it'll go back to dark af tomorrow. This is just the perfect day for batting

Guess Australia can't complain about the weather after Manchester

That’s interesting. Do Australia not get a roller between innings?

Definitely come out for a morning bat. Jimmys only 92 short of a maiden ton.

We’d have still got bowled out under 250
In these conditions

Ha- no

The over rate still a joke today jus goes to show the umpires and icc let captains and bowlers waste so much time

 

[RightArmMystery]

****. Leaving when bowling as well as he ever has, fair play to him. Been awesome this summer.

 

[91Jmay]

Wouldn't shock me if Stokes is having thoughts tbh

 

[kevinw]

Wonder if they will come out in the morning for one last hurrah
