Maybe the media will finally get off his back and realise he is the spinner to stay. Finally after like 1000 after Warne we have a keeper!

231 to win

We traditionally don't chase low scores well but this is era of big run chases

Haddin was in the same position this morning, how about push a single, bring up your 50 and have some faith in your number 10 to see off a spinner

Bill and Bumble is great commentary, unfortunately the moo Slater is there to ruin it.

What a capitulation from the visitors, from a position of great strength, in the space of 20 balls they have lost 5 wickets for 6 runs

Kentucky Fried Poms banner in the crowd gotta luv it, fingers crossed we go in 0 for at stumps

This is going to be a great finale to the test and I think Watson and Bailey have to stand up and contribute or the blow torch will really be on in Sydney....

I think Bucky and Smith would be feeling a little safer but also wouldn't want to bat like the English tail or Sydney will see Both of them also undera bit of pressure.

Gotta be none fa at stumps.

Good to see a bit of aggressive intent as well.

Amazing comeback from nearly out of the game to faves. Says a lot about where these two teams are at. England may well win this test but the 5/6 flop will probably be the difference again.

C'mon Ausses. Lets 4 nil this pack of blokes from the Isle of Kents ;)
