Missed it by a mile

Gaffaney is so far out of his depth.

Not even close.

Not sure what the noise was but it sounded good from England's point of view.

Fair call to give that out on noise

Tongue has done a shoulder and is off.

2 Subs out there now

I like we’ve played good Test Cricket and have from 2 runs an over in the first hour to almost four runs an over in hour four.

I know woakes is on just didn’t think it was for “the wife’s 2nd best friend’s” shoulder

Man do we miss Wood. 3 blokes bowling 80 mile an hour doesn't cut it. This test is another good Aussie hour away from being done.

Use the **** bat ffs

Well left Marn

Shocking decision by the umpire in the first place. You can’t give that out

Smashed it

hit outside off

Poms are whinging that means we are on top

Just 50 overs in 2 sessions.

Bairstow has let through 13 byes and the bowlers have overstepped 8 times. A very handy 21 extra runs.

Smith looks in very good form. Marnus good as well.

Australia 2/190.

Poms win the toss and invite us to bat at Lords.

3/308 with 20 overs to go on day 1.

The Poms are ******!

This would have to be one of Heads greatest innings, singlehandly taking the Ashes away from England in an hour or so. He's had a few recently but this is up there, hopefully he tons up and gets a double.

They used the wrong tactics again, pitched up with slips etc and got smashed through the off side, went to the short pitched stuff when he was about 30-40 and has even looked good playing that, taking them on and hitting boundaries despite the fielders back, even a nice pull shot through mid on for 4.

A chance to break Victor Trumpers record for fastest ton of 95 balls. im assuming its fastest ton at Lords

**** me no sooner had i submitted that post and Root gets Head, stumped, terrible shot, even Bairstow couldnt f it up although he tried
