Surprise surprise, after having to bat in crap conditions, the weather suddenly decides to go up into the mid-20's for the remainder of the test.

Rain/lost time isn't going to save Australia this time like it did at Lord's. They're going to have to produce a phenomenal batting performance in the 2nd innings to at least ensure a draw.

With Warner scoring runs, Khawaja and Wade are the batsmen under pressure in the 2nd innings to make runs with Steve Smith most likely back for the next test.

As far as I am concerned, the test is already done. f**k me if I'm watching another minute.

Bravo England. 1-1. Archer to take 200 wickets by 20 tests. Root double ton. Stokes ton. Bairstow 6 catches. Leech to bleed Australia. Bayliss still a Benedict Arnold.

f**k it all. f**k the world. f**k the cosmos to infinity and beyond...

Can't wait for the double up of a Rabbits arse rimming too. I can really up my meds.

Arghhhhh!!!

Mate as a Broncos fan, you won't be getting an arse rimming, Australia on the other hand.. yeah, we're f**ked

Pessimistic merkins. These soap dodging (racist :hushed:) merkins will shit the bed when big bad James Pattinson rips into them tonight. Root is the biggest coward in test cricket.

We could’ve put the Ashes to bed last night if we’d made stumps 2-3 for 130 odd.

Nothing but good weather forecast for days 2-5. If we’d had a set batsman make it to stumps to kick on in the sun today we’d have been hard to stop.

I’m still baffled as to how two of the statistically best first class batsmen in Australia in Burns and Patterson didn’t even make the effing squad.

Second highest team total in the series without Smith's runs. Job well done boys
