Good of the England batsman to give them lots of nice easy slip practice. Unless Stokes does something ridiculous again we're looking at a sizeable first innings deficit.

Rarely does someone who can bowl 97mph also have the ability to bat, you can tell we've missed him in the first two tests it's a shame the rest of the team apart from stokes didn't fancy it

Just bat sensibly, no happy hooking or fishing outside off stump, they've got 2 days to get less than 200 now, bore the cheating barstewards to death. If they're not giving us the runs that is..what a crap ball that was for 4 wides by the Aussie captain!

Not sure what promoting All to number 3 was about, but it didn't work. At least we are batting sensibly but it's still pretty tense!

Think it was more about dropping Brook back down the order more than Ali being promoted.

Woody's in next if Brook or Woakes fall, we saw what he can do in the first innings.
