No way Duckett hit that. There was a gap between bat and ball

I missed that wichett, so did he not ask for a review?

He was given out after the Aussies reviewed

He was but even with the "evidence" of snicko, he didn't hit that for me. Seemed to be a clear gap between bat and ball

I’m not so sure, what caused the snicko noise that was illustrated by the spike?

[PaulWinch again]

Cummins gets Crawley. It’s a good knock, but we need to be a bit careful here.

[PaulWinch again]

Phew close one for Root there.

No idea, but for me the ball was away from the bat

What’s the weather going to do tomorrow and Monday?

[Monty]

Not the greatest shot in the world. 42 is a pretty decent contribution all-told, but still not the cleverest way to get out. Still, hopefully Brook can carry on this good run.

[Monty]

Ah.

[taylorsworkrate]

Are we really going to throw this away?

[Richard E]

We only need another 30 to set them the biggest run chase at the Oval ever, if that helps.

[Villan For Life]

The ball is moving a fair bit and also reversing yet they keep asking to change the ball. Madness.

[KevinGage]

Still in the balance for me.

I wouldn't bet against this Australian side chasing down 320/330 if they need to.

Pitch seems to have flattened out a bit.

[PaulWinch again]

Pitch has flattened but this’ll be the best day to bat. If we bat to the close we’ll be in a very strong position.

I would. Have you looked at their scores in this series? We need to kill the "this australian side" myth, they are shit and they should be told they are!

[olaftab]

But please tell Stokes there is no need to declare today regardless of score.

[taylorsworkrate]

I think its more the overhead conditions being better for batting than the pitch flattening. Should be plenty of cloud cover over the last couple of days
