Yes Jimmy!
Ball seems to be talking a bit- opportunity here to get back into the Test Match if we can get the Aussies 5 down tonight?

I'm not normally one to be negative but I think they've probably already got enough unless England seriously get their act together with the bat. Even if we somehow bowl Australia out for under 100 can you see us chasing over 300 to win?

Any ray of hope gone now- needed them 25-5 at this stage.

Smith not enforcing the follow on is a worse decision that root electing to bowl first....by a long way .

Need(ed) all these marginal things to go our way to get back into this, like the Smith LBW and Handscombs nick first ball. Top fight they've shown but unless they keep it up for 2 days it's too late.

They won't catch us this time! Not this time! They haven't spotted us! No, they're all snoring in their bunks! Or, you know what? They're drinking at the bar, celebrating our sinking! Not yet, my friends. Not yet!
