Great effort to bowl out the Poms. They didn't like the old chin music too much, and some of their shot selection was horrendous. Just let it go!

Not sure what Warner was trying to achieve. All his timing and movements looked off. Meanwhile, Khwaja is our rock. The rain helped the Poms more than us.

With the ability of teams to score quickly nowadays, it makes it tricky to work out when & what you need to declare at. The main variable - the pitch - seems ok seeing as it looks like Lyon is out anyways. Though Head looked handy...

I'll be jumpy as hell if we don't have at least a 450 lead on the last day. The only way the Poms should win this is if we give them a chance with our declaration.
