To win it or be bowled out. This is England we are talking about so the latter is more likely. |  | |  |

It won't make day 5. The run rate both teams have scored at and lost wickets at on this surface, it'll likely be done and dusted by tea. |  |

Sink or swim. A quick 30 and it's a great decision. Quick wicket and Aus right back on top |  |

Ah, about that….. Need a really boring morning really, just tick off some runs whilst keeping wickets for later. Crawley‘s batted well but still managed to flash at a wide ball. |  |

Sink. Never felt he was going to be around long. |  |

Didn't look at all comfortable out there. Root nearly wafted himself out first ball as well. Don't go giving it away. |  |
|  |
Cricket: Day 4 on 11:47 - Jul 9 with 2233 views | gainsboroughblue | Root is a world class player but the 'Bazball' stuff has really got into his head at times with these crazy shots at the start of an innings. |  |

Ludicrous shot first up. He scored an excellent century all of two Tests ago playing proper cricket, could really do with one of those again now. |  |

His average since Stokes took the captaincy has been very good, but every now and then he comes in and looks nervy, like he's not sure how to approach it. Stokes has been the same a lot of the time, his last two knocks aside. Need Root to just settle down a bit and play his natural game. This is a wicket where runs will come without having to massively force it. |  |

Cricket: Day 4 on 12:19 - Jul 9 with 2170 views | gainsboroughblue | Vintage Crawley there. |  |
|  |
Cricket: Day 4 on 12:19 - Jul 9 with 2171 views | Steve_M | Sigh. Here we go again, Crawley just needed to stay in and keep picking up runs. Third time he had gone for a ball he didn’t need to. 158 runs seems an awful lot at the moment. Brook needs to play well now, crap series from him so far. |  |

It's so frustrating from Crawley. Played some nice shots, scored at a good rate, but he just can't help nicking off from shots he doesn't need to be playing. At some point he has to start converting nice looking 30s and 40s into match winning knocks. |  |
