It's The Ashes (again)

[SuperBob2002]

I'd like to as close to 300 as possible.

Bat till tea now. No longer.

No need haha....

Now come on, looking forward to seeing some daft field set ups and bowling tactics!

[SuperBob2002]

281 to win. Again, nicely poised. I make Australia favourites from here on in - weather dependent.

Another wicket needlessly thrown away. Just as we were getting a foothold back in the game.

It's so frustrating. It really is.

You really don't get Bazball do you?

England to win for me. 75 years since Aussies have made this many to win an ashes test 4th innings.

[Malcolm Tucker]

Yet again England look to be getting the upper hand, and we let the Aussies back in.

If the shoe was on the other foot the Aussies would be ruthless and wouldn't allow us back in the game. That'll be the difference this summer.

This is bollocks. Both teams have had significant spells on top during the game - that’s the beauty of test cricket.

Omens, the Aussies needed 282 to win in 2005 at Edgbaston.

Omens, the Aussies needed 282 to win in 2005 at Edgbaston.

After 407 scored on Day 1 (like this Test).

Bookies have got Aus at 4/5 to England's 7/5.  But surely this game is a coin toss at this stage

Absolutely. You want us to win but this is the shot in the arm Test cricket needs.

280 is bang in the middle for either side to be clear favourites.

Should get at least 2 sessions in so enough time to get the runs, so a draw unlikely.

What odds a tie?
