Well... only really Lyth and Bell that are worrying me

Ballance looked much more assured and was done by a superb ball - Cook back, Root, Moeen, Stokes in forrm - Buttler needs to play his natural game, Broad less scared, pitch still playing ok.

We still managed to bat another 80 overs after losing four wickets. 140 overs or so in the second innings not beyond us and, although they won't admit it, Oz will be petrified of giving us any kind of glimmer, so declaration likely to be conservative imo.

- We won't have to. Maximum five sessions - if we can slow them down, maybe four and a half. (n/m) (Other Sports) - norway, Jul 19, 10:59:31
  - Agreed. Slow the run rate and set really defensive fields. (n/m) (Other Sports) - walksie, Jul 19, 11:02:25
