Clearly trying to bat ‘traditional’ isn’t the way to go for England.

They will walk off the pitch saying they didn’t throw away as many wickets as Australia in their innings but it’s got them absolutely no where.

Based on first three tests clearly trying to bat doesn’t work for England

Or bowl. Australia should have scored 600 in that first innings.

Thats why I picked Australia 4-0. Im going to miss out by one Aussie win

Fair play to Archer, one of the few who’s shown some spirit.

Hats off to Stokes - massive ticker when his mates were falling like flies. Archer batted nicely, too.

This game is not over whilst Stokes is at the crease. If he smacks some runs tomorrow and England go in 80 runs down, historically, they chase well in the 4th dig.

IF the right decisions were made it would be Carey 4 Smith 2 ;)
Both good players
Jamie Smith looks good , Im sure he will turn into a long term very good player for England
