Whatever target they set us i think we will just bat out the remaining overs and take the 3-0 win before the party begins.

No wont go that late probably finish about 6.00ish as a draw, this is the last day

Australia lead by 164 runs with 8 wickets remaining now

Thanks, mate. I appear to have lost a day somewhere. Usually, that's alcohol related! So it's set fair. Will we see 44 overs?

Real chance to win this. Impossible to lose 8 wickets in 24 overs, and Pietersen, Bell and Prior all capable of scoring over 6 an over.

If they wuss out of this ill be mightily pissed off.

There's more chance of them really going for it now that Cook's out. He's not the most attacking or innovative of captains.

Trott needs to stay in and let the other batsmen play their shots , kp and bell could easily guide us to glory.

If we dont win this we want shooting!!!

I do hope though that our 'Man of the series' Ian Bell is at the wicket to hit the winning runs in a history making 4-0 series win.
