    The run rate is picking up now. Get a psychological 100 lead and send them in for a rough hour tonight. Weather forecasts can change, but Saturday looks a write off and I can't see Friday or Sunday being a full day of play.

    I'd rather have real 100 run lead.

    So far Crawley and Root have centuries, Ducket a 98.

    Pope out for series.

    Need Brooke to step up now.

    Brilliant by Crawley. The best innings he's ever played. Superb to have a score like that at run a ball.

    I think it was Pakistan but it was a classic innings and has kept him in our side for a couple of years.
    Rightly so he’ll be a regular for a long time to come.
    Rob Key’s influence has kept him in the team and I’m happy to be proved wrong about him

    Sporting from Aussies there. All good things come to an end, but a shame Zak couldn't get to 200!

    Over throws, followed by a wicket. One extreme to another. Brilliant knock that puts us in a great position. The Aussies are knackered and we have much more batting to come.

    I’d say he stepped up at headingley to be fair.

    Excellent innings by Crawley. License to throw the bat at everything now and try to get 100 ahead as soon as possible. Given the weather, we’ll have to bowl them out quickly anyway, so may as well get in sooner rather than later. Don’t think they’ll be thinking of getting 200 ahead or anything
