    Zak with the catch. Keep the ball away from the Yorkies

    And England rewarded for squeezing in an extra over

    Wouldn't be at all surprised to see him go to 200 at a run a ball the way Marsh is playing right now.
    (With the attempted reverse bok!)
    You're all welcome!

    If he'd dropped that one I think I might have cried

    skittle them for under 300 its still a decent day. Just not as good as it should have been.

    A side note to the game - I thought that I recognised the name of the England 12th man. Will Luxton opened the batting for Yorkshire against Kent when he and Seb were both 13. Seb made 4 that day but actually did better than Luxton who was out for a duck - caught behind by Seb

    Watched all morning and we were great. 2 hours driving after lunch and Aus build a partnership get in and turn the cricket on and see a wicket in my first over. 

    Anyone wanna try and tell the missus I'm not allowed out for the next 5 days.

    It is pretty desperate stuff though - 52.1 overs in two sessions (13 overs an hour) and we've had 7 overs of spin too!

    I really hope that you are right, possibly aided at some point by some reverse swing, because if Australia make it to the new ball I suspect that they will have at least 350 before doing so

    If Stokes and Robinson can't bowl tonight we won't have anyone left standing to bowl the new ball.

    Update from England - Robinson hasn't taken the field because he has yet to finish his tea.

    As much as I and the rest of England fans want to know the state of play with Robinson, I suspect that if it is a meaningful injury, we don't want the Aussies to know that.

    Make that 14 drops and a missed stumping

    Not surprised Robinson has got injured , was surprised he was even named in the side for this test with his injury record.

    Back spasm apparently for Robinson.

    Hindsight is a wonderful thing but maybe the rest would have done him good with Tongue playing.

    Root drops another one.

    Seems we have to get them out twice.

    I think Root was somewhat relieved there but not as much as Woakes must be!

    Woakes should have played at Lord's. His batting at No 8 would have been useful too

    Second ball of the day I’ve watched and he finally catches one. You’re welcome!

    Did he have full control of the ball when he threw it on the ground? 

    Sorry, I was just writing headlines for Australian papers

    The way Woakes is going slightly grey is making me have even more of a man crush on him!

    If we'd have taken all our catches, Labuschagne would have been their top scorer on 21.
