Marmus giving the England players a bit of lip just before going and Broad just waved at him and said "see ya". How lucky Smith is? He could have been out easily.
If we could somehow, somehow, get Smith out cheaply we've got a slight chance here. I mean, we won't and we'd only have a tiny chance anyway, but we can dream!
I know it is his mannerisms but I hate it. Luckily I am not bowling as I would be aiming at his face and wipe those smirks and facial remarks (even though I am 4ft 11), He is like the kid at school who has got everything is smug that you wanna hit. It's because of this I hate his batting. I would love to whilst his waving his bat in the air he nicks one by mistake and gets caught waving his bat in the air. Shame you can't do a Taylor. WAlk up, wait for him to move and aim the ball near his bat whilst it is in the air.
The party stand might be rowdy, but that doesn't mean its without class. One lad is passing olives around to everyone. You don't get that at the football.
Bloody Monday though it is going to bloody rain. Just our luck !! Mind you we are gonna lose not just for bad luck but not being good enough. It will me amazing if it s draw tomorrow but jut can't see it. Not when they have Lyon playing on a turning pitch Day 5. Probably got enough runs already to be honest but Aussies can't risk it.

24-3
theyve got enough runs already
We should still manage to get a draw.
15% chance of getting 300
5% chance of getting 350
But I think they will want a lead of 400 before they declare.
A draw is a good result for them, they can't afford to give us any chance.
44-4
259 lead.
Pitch is deteriorating. Cant see us surviving much more than a couple of sessions. And finish is at 7pm tomorrow because of the rain delays...??

Keep going like this and they might declare tonight.
Must be a dozen who should have been picked in front of him
