      Woakes for cheap (80) just like I said ;D

      England have been really good today, because batting has been even easier on this pitch today than yesterday.

      Kept it straight and picked up the LBWs.

      That's just poor game awareness from Leach. Wake the F**k up.

      Plus he cant be bowling at this stage of the game. Wheres Broad?

      Yes Jofra!

      Other than being captain Root has no business being in the slips. Awful catcher in there.

      That's how you do it from Rory Burns!! Magnificent catch.

      Haha his brother is supposed to be the better bowler but I dont see it. Having a left arm swing bowler in the side gives us a bit more variety and gives Root more options.

      When it swings properly he can be really effective, yesterday there was just a little bit for him.

      England will have to bat the day today and hopefully a little into tomorrow. Another 100 overs on this pitch and it will start to misbehave. If we get ourselves out quickly and cheaply, this is still a road to bat on.

      I think we will need a 350 lead to be comfortable. 270 may well be enough but you would want a cushion.

      Such a good batting wicket this, and although it will turn, I've yet to see Leach win us a match with his bowling.

      Englands job here is to be no more than 2 down at lunch. Need to see off this new ball for Root who is our best chance of 100.

      Big fan of Burns, hes not without his faults but against easier attacks I think he can score 100s for us. Hes shaped up well against the Aussie quicks this series.

      Job done so far. Cummins and Hazelwood seen off. Lyon, Siddle and Marsh for a while now.

      Urghhh short and wide from Lyon and its nicked by Burns. Ugly way to get out, but no issue with the shot, it was there to smash.

      Root has a platform though, this is a big innings for him to take the game away from  Australia.

      2 of the more useless Aussie cricketers in Payne and Wade just been told to shut up by Erasmus.

      You have to admire in a strange way Paynes misplaced confidence in himself to   pipe up considering his decision at the toss and his average in the series, and indeed any other series.

      Labushange has been out of order today with the umpires. He thinks everything off his bowling is out which is annoying but harmless, but dont take that out on the umpires kid.

      Australia in general are slipping back in to some old habits. A little bit of success has gone to their heads.

      This isnt football, respect the umpire.

      Ball starting to misbehave a little now, England may want to try and get quick runs here. Good innings from Stokes and Denly with 94.

      Australia may regret having Buttler and Bairstow in, in these circumstances.

      Back to back 4s for Buttler, lead up to 300, 15 off Siddles over.

      Disappointed by the late wickets but hopefully can push the lead to about 400 and then bowl and catch well

      Should have enough in all honesty. Get to 400 and that's a big chase.
