Just aiming to be there at the end. Moeen sounds like he is struggling, despite the wicket. Serving up a lot of filth which I'm sure his finger isn't helping with, but we don't seem to have a great deal of options out there. This is too tight to call but we need to nip this partnership in the bud quick. |  |

They've still got Carey and Cummins to come as well. Not liking the way this is heading. |  | |  |

Certainly Australia favourites at the moment but getting one of these out drags it back a long way. Two wickets for not many and England probably favourites but that's a way off. |  |

Yes, selection for this Test looks a bit strained with Stokes and Ali both less than fit plus both of Broad and Anderson. Not quite all or nothign but after a good start. I stand by my earlier post about wickets massively changing the match, they have done throughout but particularly so now. |  |

Looks like we'll probably get a crack at the new ball. Another couple of wickets before that would be fantastic. |  |

There's one of them then, Khawaja too. He was holding this together so they either score quickly now or wait for England to pick up wickets. |  |

I have a feeling they are all the same size If it looks bigger it may be cos the others are further away |  |

This is my thinking. They've kept us in this by moving so slowly. 70 odd needed and 8 overs away from the new cherry. |  |

Stokes' captaincy = genius in not taking thew new ball straight off. Maybe. |  |

Turned out to be. It was a good call. Carey would have probably appreciated the new ball coming off the pitch quicker. We still have it up our sleeve for the last two. |  |

We've got to surely back ourselves with the new ball here. Edit. Now taken. [Post edited 20 Jun 2023 18:39]
