You realise it's a five match series right ?

Yes but we've got our confidence sky high and Australia are batting like they have the past 3 series they lost here, they give their wickets away.

Just face it you're being outclassed and having arrived as massive favourites you're going home without the urn.

While I don't disagree you are robbing Broad of a fine over. He worked Smith over brilliantly. Sometimes the bowler is too good.

Gotta credit these Aussies, they're good guys they're making sure the game is basically over before their countrymen go to bed for the night.

Broads decided he's going to have his game where he completely arseholes us nice and early this series.

Terrible capitulation here. Very reminiscent of Durham 2013 and Port Elizabeth 2014.

Warner's wicket just before lunch has definitely been the turning point. How he got out LBW to a plodder like Ali (who doesn't have the spin or variation that Graeme Swann had) I will never know. Very soft, lazy dismissal which has turned the momentum of this innings. That's one of the frustrating aspects of Warner's batting: when he's on song he's a pleasure to watch, but has lacked consistency at test level and still is plagued by the T20 short-term concentration span.
