Australia's day overall. I liked the byplay between Warner and the crowd, when he turned his pockets inside-out to show he didn't have any sandpaper.

England's toothless attack is being exposed today. The likes of Broad and Woakes are OK if there is some life in the wicket and plenty to assist the bowlers, when there isn't they are very very mediocre as has been shown time and time again.

WTF is Archer doing fielding as 12th man when he wasn't fit enough to play only a few days ago, absolute joke. Joe Root and the selectors cannot have it both ways, if he is fit he plays, if he isn't you rest him, you don't have him out there fielding, what an absolute shambles.

We've paid a heavy cost for selecting an unfit Anderson (selectors should be fired) and an out of form spinner.

Awful day. Feckin’ dire.

As Indo says, an unfit pace bowler and Ali hopelessly out of form. Run out missed by Root and some dubious captaincy from him today.

As TPC says why the hell is Archer fielding as a sub.

A long day tomorrow if we are to save this game. We may need some help with the weather,

Roy tosses his wicket away. Denley wastes a referral when he was clearly out. We're playing stupid.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Lyon's get 5 wickets.
