Leaving shortly to watch Smith get a duck 09:17 - Sep 13 with 1074 viewsCoastalblue

Now it doesn't matter too much (though a drawn series is not a bad result) he's going to get that failure he's due.

I won't be too sad to miss out on watching him either, lots of great batsman you can sit and enjoy, even if they're destroying England's bowling attack but Smith's not really one to enjoy. Appreciate yes, enjoy no.

No idea when I began here, was a very long time ago. Previously known as Spirit_of_81. Love cheese, hate the colour of it, this is why it requires some blue in it.

I find him fascinating to watch too. It's like reaching the highest level of some arcade game which is almost impossible to crack.

I'd really like to see Buttler crack on and get to his ton. Leach seems to be the perfect tailenders to hold an end up for him to do so. Maybe Broad's demotion will focus his mindset too.

Hope England can string it out as long as possible, or collapse completely and lose by tomorrow.

Got tickets for Sunday, so hope to see a full day's play or none at all.

England will be all out within the first 20 minutes and Australia will show how flat this pitch is by getting 450+

7.5 poor dismissals yesterday, Root got a good ball but if he was on the front foot rather than hanging back he would of had a better chance of hitting it.

The Curran shot summed up Englands batting, no feet and flashing away miles from their body.

Fantastic track, perfect weather, can bat for as long as he wants as the Aussies only need a draw....Lara's record anyone??

Might as well try although that might be out of reach.

He needs 300 to get Bradmans ashes record though and that could be on if we can't find a way past him.

Sooner or later he has to have a failure though.

He had a failure in the last test. A pathetic 82.

Awful I agree.

He did still manage to average 147 last test though.

All out 294.

Just isn't going to be enough again.

Oh for those days of England clocking up 400 in tests.

Buttler stupid shot.

Only 3 minutes out, Australia will bat until night with a 200 run lead.

Like to think that if Mitchell Marsh can bag a five-for, then Woakes could be in business. Again, it's all about Smith but we could see someone like Warner or Harris stand up as well.

England were evens to not reach 450 in any innings during the Ashes. Wish I'd put my mortgage on it.

Did I hear correctly on TMS, that our opening partnership of 27 yestersday was the highest for either side in the series?!

Yup.

And Warner's gone again to continue that record.

At least a fifty in every innings of the series thus far. 10 in a row against England.

Incredible and annoying.

The 400 would be on if all his team mates were allowed 3 knocks each. An absolute phenom.
