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.

its a crazy series, thats fo shizzle

I bet Gillchrist and maybe Clarke will open. Maybe Langer or Hayden actually. They're all big hitters. But I don't think they can do it. Mind you, I would have said yesterday with Australia at 128 - 1 in the morning or whatever it was, that England didn't stand a chance.

england are gonna get all out 320ish

and aussies are gonna be going for spectacular shots, it wouldnt surprise me if Gilly goes out earlier

still lose though

I love that Australia needed to bowl us all out for about 150, and we've gone on to make 300. Brilliant stuff, this.

That's what I was thinking.........

But why risk it?

Let's let them have a bat. Might have a chance of making it 3-1 as they will be trying for 6's.

so it seems. :s

In... The... Bag.

*shakes fist angrily in direction of Pieterson*

Absolutely! Imagine what would have happened though if Pietersen had been given out on that first ball... as it is, it looks like England will win the Ashes back, barring an instant bowling miracle followed by almost six runs an over.
