Christ I was sure he'd nicked that

 

[Calm_profit]

Woakes stills looks threatening

 

[Spark]

****ing hell this is extravagant bounce for a last day deck

 

[loterry1994]

God woakes has been the bowler of the series has anyone been able to handle him and take him for runs

[Burgey]

Poor Stokesy. Don’t blame him having his head in hands in frustration there. England have been so risk-free in their batting this series, they’ve not played a false shot.

 

[Jfry]

Time to bring Jimmy on

 

[Shri]

never change bairstow

 

[ripper868]

can we get an (actual) old ball please.

 

[Molehill]

It's even more painful that we have to go through the start of a Travis Head innings again. I really can't wait for this **** to **** off home.

Good, frankly.

Fair to say Aus aren’t playing for a draw here. Seems like they want to have well less than a hundred to get before the new ball

 

[loterry1994]

Man it’s past heads edge like 15 times already

 

[Spark]

It's from the rough, Atherton, he isn't getting that from around the wicket

 

[Shri]

 

[Spark]

Would be incredibly funny if they had gotten the calculation for the number of overs wrong.

EDIT: so inept.

 

[Molehill]

At what point will they bin the win predictor? It's so far from the actual truth it's astonishing. The bookies currently have Aus at 1-3, that should be 67%, not 44%.

 

[Coronis]

How the **** does their win predictor have England at 37%

 

[loterry1994]

Lol 47 overs is still a crazy amount

 

[Spark]

52 overs in (nominally) 2 hours 40 was always... odd...
