Well...

I predicted 5 or 6 down by stumps. Ducket very lucky there. Could be all out at this rate.

That's my gut feeling down unless they can steady the ship, which I don't think Duckett can do. Before the Ashes, he'd only let eight-ball go in six tests.

Eight! Like I said before, I've been an advocate of Baz Ball, but right now we need to balance it with some good, old-fashioned test cricket mixed in there.

Slow it down, steadily get some runs and then up the strike rate again. If they get a few more wickets in the next hour, it'll be over quite quickly.

How are you calling that idiocy it’s an unreal ball…

When you see that ball it just tells you our bowling line up isn't good enough

Very difficult to find any bowlers in the world capable of matching this Aussie pace attack

Errr, I don't think it's anywhere near as bad as some are saying in the past few week or two, however it's a bit one-dimensional in my eyes - where's the variety?

Broad and Anderson have been brilliant, some of the best ever, but they ain't young any more. For me, we're missing Leech.
