Could we see Burns being the first England player to bat on all five days of a Test, since Boycott in 1977?
Do you believe the Aussies will declare tonight or give catching practice to get at the old Whitgiftian's ?
They'll declare. To give England a sniff. If they bat on, it's a waste of overs and England will set out tomorrow just to bat time. But if they declare, at least England will set off with a target.

The only target England have from here is to survive and get a draw.
Burns and Root are capable of batting for a long period in this sort of situation. The rest are mainly stroke makers. Lose Burns and Root tonight and it's all over.
