Forest Hillbilly Flag in a hidey-hole 08 Jul 23 6.06pm Send a Private Message to Forest Hillbilly Add Forest Hillbilly as a friend

Encouraging near the end of the third day.
Aus 169-7
Australia lead England by 195 runs with 3 wickets remaining

Don't worry, England have nearly 2 whole days in which to capitulate.

what a finish to the day. At close

England
First innings237 all out
Second innings27 - for0 wickets(5.0overs)

Australia
First innings263 all out
Second innings224 all out

Close - England require 224 runs to win with 10 wickets remaining

There could be cautious optimism. England could knuckle-down and win it tomorrow. Then again,....

We survive - 224 to win all wickets intact (I feel faint).

Plenty of time to do it in.

Had to laugh at Cummins reviewing after he had clearly sliced the ball, how Australian can you get.

Surprised you sound so upbeat that England are doing well Still plenty of time for it to change

Let's hope for good batting weather tomorrow.

This is so useful. Have you ever thought of setting up a sports results service?

teetering on the brink. Will they pull it out of the bag ? or just gradually fizzle 'all out' before the end of the day ? I know which way the form book would say, . .

Lunch - 98 to win 6 wickets left.

Time no problem, Cummins and Starc are.

Looks even to me, fingers crossed.

50 more to get , with 4 wickets, left. Is there time to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory ?
