He gave him out LB surely not bowled as the bail had not fallen. When he saw the ball actually hitting the stump without dislodging the bail he had to change his decision to not out. That is how I saw it.
A rotten piece of luck for the impressive Cameron Green.
Ball was a long way from the pad lol

it was all very comical

Lyon going to pieces as always when the batsmen are going after him. Let's see how we respond to this counter-attack

Gee as soon as a team puts up a fight or go on the attack our bowling goes to shit very quickly. We’ve been rubbish since the Green non wicket off the stumps.

England had to come good at some stage though - yes they have had a bit of luck from some shoddy Aussie Bowling( Wicket off a no ball) and Fielding (dropped catches) but another wicket or two exposes a pretty frail tail that can be mopped up quickly.

You always add 2 wickets to your total for how you are going.

99 run stand at 4/over. Our attack responding well to aggression as always! Stokes the coward had to come good eventually you'd think...

These two bat deep into tomorrow, get a first innings lead, we crumble while batting and all of a sudden England wins in one of the greatest comebacks ever. To equal Calcutta 2001 and Headingley 2019.

Dropped by Cummins, bowled but the bail failed to dislodge. Lady luck plus some shoddy middle innings bowling by Lyon and Starc is allowing him to come good.

I've had to mute the nauseating commentators on Channel 7...So what if England show a bit of fight and have a good partnership? They don't deserve any special acknowledgement for it. It should be the bare minimum expected on a decent batting pitch that a test quality team should occasionally make some runs. If Australia break the partnership soon, they could still easily collapse again.

Another wicket or two and England will be all out pretty quickly.

Bet Waugh and Warney said the same when when Dravid walked out to the middle to join Laxman that day in Calcutta while the Indians were 4/232 after following on. Nobody they'd they'd declare on 650+. Then look what happened. Or when Stokes walked out to the crease at Headingley 2019. We watch this game for the moments of greatness like that.
