    Not been watching - has Moeen been fielding ?
    Will he be allowed to bat at 3 ?
    No he's not fielded at all.
    What's the rules on where/when he can bat?
  • Aussies trying to get some quick runs now… lead below 20…

    2-1 or 3-1 Aussies or 2-2 with England winning the entertainment crown.

    I hope the inquest(who died) is honest after this test but I'm not sure Baz ball does regret from declaring early on day one of first test to not picking the best wicket keeper. Did they always pick the right bowling line up ?

    Baz ball with a bit of nous is the way forward and of course that makes for Jeopardy and great entertainment. Getting on top of a bowler is part of the game. Slogging across the line is more problematic and is a bad look.

    This game can go either way or the rain gods will spoil again.

  • This doesn't paint quite such a great picture... 
  • Murphy auditioning to change nationality so he can play Bazball!
  • Brain dead bowling 
  • This is crap now England! Come on wrap it up 
  • I might be wrong with my prediction of the Aussies having a 100+run lead but they will have a lead no doubt. 

    Seems we struggle once we get them 7 or 8 down. 
  • 32 runs from the last three overs… lead down to 10
  • Why are we peppering a no. 11 who can clearly play the short ball and offering next to nothing that will get him driving?

    Agreed. Wickets have been taken by pitching the ball up - edges, lbw's and bowled have been the main mode of dismissal. Not being caught in the deep. 
  • Total waste of the new ball.
    We have made tailenders look like fucking Bradman 
  • Although I do Murphy a disservice of course - he is the no. 10

    This could be Constable.

    This could be a Jackson Pollock.
  • Australia's best 2 wicket partnerships in this innings:

    8th & 9th - 92*
    1st & 2nd - 91
  • Incredibly frustrating end to the day. Can’t let them get another 30/40 here 
  • Don’t worry, they have got three number 11’s

    Whatever happened to the bloke that said that? 
  • Partnership here is giving me Edgbaston flashbacks

  • Scores now level

    Embarrassing bowling and tactics for the past hour. They shouldn't have been able to get ahead of us. Very poor.
  • Propa cricket 1 Bazball 0 at the halfway stage
  • Aussies now have a lead of 1 run, as Golfie bravely predicted 11 runs ago.
  • Australia to lead by 15 then get us 3 down very quickly 
  • Woakes isn't a bad shout. Someone on here suggested that him going in at 3 to help take the shine off the new ball could be a good tactic if we're going to play in this style 
  • Todd Murphy’s Test scores before today:

  • Murphy given lbw, he reviews because they’ve got 2 left
  • looks straight enough
