+x+xwell this is a nice situation to wake up to! No rain and 4 wickets! Superb bowling by our boys today grazor. Excellent rib tickling stuff from Cummins. Always like it when he revs it up. He too has 3.

Can’t the Poms just walk instead of review every dismissal?
Brute of a lifting ball from Cummins to send Bairstow back to the sheds.
100 wickets to Cummins!

Great ball from GOAT with a fabulous catch to Paine to send Bairstow back to the pavilion.
GOAT takes his 4th.
Is GOAT off your hate list now, Baggers?

+xweird review surely he felt the contact with the wristband? Went over to the umpire and showed him his wrist where ball hit. Little did he know that it also grazed the wristband.

+xweird review surely he felt the contact with the wristband? Before you watched, England successfully reviewed about 4- 5 dismissals from a dodgy umpire.

One of the great pleasures of life is watching Poms walking off the ground after being dismissed in the Ashes in Pommyland!
Love it!
Particularly after them giving us a hiding for the first three days in this test.

It’s unforgiveable letting that get out of hand after Aussies were 122-8 first dig Let’s see how you cope with Jofra at St John’s Wood...

Particularly after them giving us a hiding for the first three days in this test. The momentum turned England's way when we let them get that 90 lead. What was on the second day. We got it back the next day and have kept it since. The ebbs and flows of test cricket is what makes it so good.

Has only played 28 FC games. 133 wickets @23.4. Pretty impressive. Cummins is getting back to form. Reckon it is you that has to cope with him. Our quicks which may include Starc and Hazlewood will have their backs up.

I think the tour of india really changed lyon
his biggest weakness was taking advantage of favourable conditions. He's fixed that and is dominant on a 5th day pitch here!

great bowling today from cummins
I'd advocate rotating bowlers. Pattinson is our most talented but I wonder if nerves got to him. Starc's body is fragile. Have him and starc alternate each test to preserve their fragile bodies

Have him and starc alternate each test to preserve their fragile bodies Patto bowled well in the second innings when I watched him bowl, Grazor. I think in the interests of preserving him, I’d rotate him with Starc for the next Test at Lords. Although will Siddle be as effective on the Lords pitch as he was in this Test at Edgbaston?

+x+xThis is hardly confidence building news. Statistically, the fourth innings of a match is Lyons weakest @34.12. Why does that not surprise me. Having said that, there are some footmarks for him to bowl into.. that will help. I expect Smith to have a trundle and Head. Who hates Nine. If you are unable to stay up and watch all the days plays.. tuff as Nine will not even give us 30 min hilight package. Nine is shocking, Baggers. Gday Dc, Note I never complain about 9. I am one of the majority of Aussies that do not have fox, so without 9 showing some cricket I would be bereft of being able to watch any. I'll take a few adds to be able to watch it. As I am an early to bed, early to rise person, usually fall asleep in the first session & tape the rest to watch am, then read all the posts, hence my comments later. I do get a chuckle from many of the posts. I thought you weren't going to mention re Smith , Warner & co anymore? On the list of fast bowlers that slogged it out, my favourite from my era was M. Hughes, whom I still consider one of the all time greats & great to show that the stats show this.

+xPaine has mishandled a few balls. Having a bad day. Gday Dc again, jaszyjim - not a slag off at Paine, but is he not staying down like he used to? My memory is, he would start to move horizontal before moving vertically. He now seems to start to rise very early. This I noted first when he missed a difficult chance off Smith & yesterday when he went the wrong way to Siddle. Not saying they would have taken anyway, it just made me look at his movement.
