322-7

Very similar to the first Test: solid contributions (and sometimes more) from most of the aussie batters.

183

409-7 at dinner.

Century for Marsh. 8th wicket stand at 98 :lou_facepalm_2: :lou_facepalm_2:

184

This is not looking good a draw at best for us.

185

Luckily our Australian colleague has buggered of back to the penal colony so no digs from him.

186

So the aussies, even down the order, make batting look very very simple.

Stoneman goes lbw. :lou_angry:

187

Oh Shit we are fucked by the look of that scorecard.

Bairstow c&b Starc 21 (Eng 142-7)

Woakes and Overton with a lesson in how to play. Take fucking note the top order.

And now Woakes goes.

Looks like I picked a good day/night to have a dead phone
