Warner has made his usual early departure, but Jofra currently serving up low 80's pies which is worrying from an England perspective.

Now Jofra gets his chance against Smith. This should be interesting.

All a bit disappointing today. Smith at his annoying best again.

I guess it’s difficult to field in the cold and wind and tough to get warm and fired up for bowling. From what I saw the bowling was fairly poor, batsman never looked too troubled.

Can’t see how we can win from this position. Forecast is looking wet the next two days. I’d take a draw from here.

I did like Bumble's comment that it was 30 degrees

15 in the morning and 15 in the afternoon makes 30

No surprise that Archer's natural ability is being coached out of him. I'm angry with Roy - imagine how Broad must feel. The dropped catch was a dolly.

Still plenty of time for two England batting collapses.

There certainly is. They showed at Headingley they can bat with discipline when needed. I feel more confident with Denly opening ahead of Roy.

Expect Australia to up the tempo now. They'll declare on about 450-480 and give England 10 overs to bat tonight.

If England can bat for 90 overs in the first innings, that should be enough to get a draw. We fought back well at Lords and Headingley and will need to do it again. There is no way we can win from here.

Very disappointed with Roy this series, no runs and couldn't catch a cold. That chance from Paine was a big moment.

Been a bit of a disaster.
Australia were 28-2.
Stokes gone for an average of 6 an over.
If England get to bat tonight, I wouldn't be surprised if they lost an early wicket.

As someone has already said on this thread, we will bowled out in 2 innings after their 497dec

I didn't actually say that we would be bowled out twice, but that there was still plenty of time for us to be. We are indeed off to a good start in that regard, as you have noted!

Early wicket - so darned predictable !
When will the selectors accept that Denly simply isn't up to the job ? Another James Vince.Hogwash.

I should think that'll be at the point we lose the Ashes.

Fail to regain the Ashes you mean, Stirling. We lost them a few years ago.
