Whenever Ian Bell scores a Test 100 (he has now done it 18 times) England have never lost the Test: won 11, drawn 6
 
England 215 & 375
Australia 280 & 71/0 (21.0 ov)
Australia require another 240 runs with 10 wickets remaining
 
Still think we should have bowled first on that overcast Wednesday morning! Aussies proving me right at the moment!
 
England 215 & 375
Australia 280 & 76/0 (22.1 ov)
Australia require another 235 runs with 10 wickets remaining
 
All England needs is one wicket. Even in India, ozzies had a massive opening stand followed by a collapse.
 
England 215 & 375
Australia 280 & 82/0 (23.5 ov)
Australia require another 229 runs with 10 wickets remaining
 
Aus are favourites for the day. Just 225 more to get. Should target for 125 more runs by the end of the day without more than 4 wickets lost
 
Score is going to around 200 at days end . If Australia lose just 4 today they will win this . Watto out .
 
So close. Is it just me or do most of Dar's 50-50 decisions go in favour of England?
 
How on earth was it dodgy? Ball was hitting the stumps, therefore it is out

Correct decision from Aleem Dar

That was too close to call with the ball just marginally touching the stumps. Aleem Dar of 2011 would have given it not out.
 
I honestly believe a pinch hitter would be good in this situation. A quick 30 runs to put the bowlers under pressure and put the field back would be good.
 
226 more to score.....

Aussies should to get there if Poms don't alter the condition of the ball.

need a Pup ton........
