I wish they’d stop showing and talking about the bloody ‘Barmy Army’, they are the cricket equivalent of the Sheffield Wednesday/England band only with added boorish, pissed up blokes.
I thought the day completely summed up the tour. Got ourselves into a good position before throwing the advantage away, Australia just kept it tight and hung in there and England couldn't see it through. That's why we're 3-0 down.
England's day up until last 10 minutes. Harsh on Root, as he got a good score, but his wicket has opened the door and now Bairstow is gone and we're into the tail. We'll be lucky to get 280 as opposed to the 400 we should get.
Some hot weather (high 30's) forecast for days 3 and 4 so i'm pretty certain it's going to turn to shit for England at the back end of the game.

A very sunny and hot morning here. Play starts early at 10 so going to set out in few minutes. I am hoping for a Moeen Renaissance and at least 300.
