Get fit soon Simon Jones!

Hopefully England will still be attacking and go for the win rather than defend to try and get a draw, I think they're more likely to succeed this way.

Hoggard takes Gilchrist! 4 wickets left now but the light is improving so if England do get all the Aussies out before the close of play today they may not be given the light and have to bat.

Howzaaat!!


Get in Hoggard.

Hopefully England can take the final 5 wickets before the close of play today. Then they'll be offered the light and will of course take it and therefore get rid of a few more overs to be bowled.

Can't see the Aussies winning now.

Get in Freddeh!

We basically have it in the bag now. Oh yes!

Barmy Army!

England will then play defensivly to really put the pressure on.

Australia will go 'til about dinner / tea tomorrow hoping for a 500 total then try bowl England out quickly and either only have to bat for a little total or just try to win.

I'm supporting the rain this time.

Australia are gonna need to let England in soon...

I think England will win the Ashes now.

Think it will be a tie with 3 days already gone and Australie still behind on runs.

Looks like a 2-2 draw for the series...

Unless England can make their innings last and force a draw.
