Bancroft gone.. soft dismissal. 

That is me off to bed.

long way back from here

when your facing a team a bowler down its criminal to give away a soft dismissal with the match on the line!

ah thats a real shame

Australia really needed to dig deep and survive 10 overs here and couldn't do it

Warner out trying to leave, fair enough. That was a bad wicket though from bancroft...

Why 5 more overs ?

If we survive 10 overs when England are a bowler down its stokes on and things might get a touch easier

Also they are likely to bring on one of their 2 specialists bowlers earlier and tire them out easier. Not taking damage in the first spell when the ball is new and they are fresh is key

soft hands from warner and the ball goes to ground for 4 through gully

Not soft hands. Wudda been snaffled by gully.. except there was nt one.
 Yep Warner in two minds whether to play or leave. Take a look where his front foot was. Off stump exposed. Poor technique. is it time to jettison him?
