    No reason to play it. Feet planted.
    Still poor.
    Pressure of ashes cricket even affects the world no1 test batsman.

    Bairstow missing the easy stumping could prove costly.

    I don’t think I’ve seen a ball by Moeen spin as much as that last wicket !
    Didn’t seem to be much rough either

    Keep the posts coming :D Ali needed that wicket to help his figures, with his costly economy rate.

    Shane Warne would have been proud of that ball.

    Another Bairstow mess up behind the stumps that Woakes wouldn't have done and a dozen no balls. Standards need to rise.

    It's painful watching Bairstow keep to the spinners. 2 huge opportunities missed today.
    Foakes was so unlucky to be dropped and just scored a century in helping Surey chase over 500.

    My prediction is that your prediction will be wrong, because Brook and Duckett won't get anywhere near, but all of Australia's top 6 will get one.

    You’re having a bad day and you should know it wouldn’t get overlooked … you mean Foakes

    Mark Wood would have been ideal on this pitch with his extra pace. Robinson trundling in and bowling military medium.

    Got Warner, Labuschagne and Smith out cheaply but we’re still facing a first innings deficit.
    Always thought this was a 500 wicket and the declaration last night was a bit premature.
    Bazball is/has been great to date but this is Australia and the Ashes. Different ball game….
