First topic message reminder :

SR that's not how mental fatigue works.
Also Stokes had a long break last year ...which he came back from err ...mentaly fatigued. Buttler and Bairstow haven't had that luxury.

But anyway it's not a case of "attitude" , ask Trott and Trescothick.

Denly did well today. Hard position to come into, pressure on him individually too, scores well, done by good bowling.

The questions are more on Roy, and it feels somewhat like there’s extra pressure on Denly because Roy is deemed to be potentially very good there and his failures then get blamed on Denly taking his potential spot.

Luckily for Roy and Denly, Burns is scoring runs again, which is good for their average

Burns has 33% of our runs in the Ashes so far. If he can make 167 in our 501 this knock to keep that average up, that would be great.

So after having two regulation chances dropped, Burns goes to an absolute screamer at short leg and suddenly England are back in a bit of bother.

Cummins' brilliant short-pitched bowling gets a reward. Such an exquisite catch at short leg - one of the best we'll see all series.

116/4 and two new batsmen at the crease. Eeek.

I was watching this time, so it’s not actually me getting these wickets. Great catch, some extra grip in Bancroft’s hand there.

The Burns/Denly/Roy triumvirate is out for 83. They’ll be disappointed.

Stokes and Buttler in and I fear for England now. 250 seems a long way away

He might not be able to buy a run but he's done the job for Australia in the close catching positions.

Bit of trouble now for England : 116/4. Need a partnership...

Cummins at Stokes immediately with the short stuff...

Stokes unlikely to take a backward step so could be a lively period coming up .

Lyon on. Wonder if Jos will try to take him on ? Has been a decent run rate so far and they won't want to get tied down ; but with four wickets gone already...

A tad, yes. But they made 69 more than Joe Root. When you consider the amount of scrutiny they are under, and Root is chucking scores in like that, it's worrying the selectors can't see where the weak link is.

No surprise. Don't think a rest would be the worst idea for Buttler, in truth. Well-deserved wicket for Siddle.

This session is extended by 30 minutes (tea at 16:10), so a half-decent chance of Australia bowling England out before the interval.

Wouldn't disagree with that hugely...he wasn't in great nick with the bat in the world cup, and looks even more out of nick in the red ball stuff so far.

Bairstow somehow isn't out first ball...teetering on disaster here

Batting not looking too easy at the moment. Movement for the fast bowler , spin for Lyon. Aussies feeling good about sending England in , I think .

We will see later if England can exert similar pressure on the Australian lineup.

They're going to have to ! Stokes gone to Lyon...ouch.

Lyon completely outclassing Stokes and gets what is merited. 4 wickets for 36 runs - a good old English collapse in full cry.

Now, where's the rain? England need bucketloads and bathtubs of the stuff.

So pre series the plan for England to win was really swing for Anderson up top, middle/lower order firing and Root re-finding his feet...along with Moeen continuing his form from last summer.

Fair to say, it has not gone to plan so far...

its fairly obvious that these lot can hit a ball around well when its not doing anything, but they really are terrible when the ball does anything. even in the world cup format they struggled with the bat in anything other than on flat roads

we need to stick around for the day in best batting conditions and bowl at the aussies tomorrow in overcast conditions. sadly cant see it. today will be the easiest batting will get this test match and were still awful

Only been watching since 2 o'clock. Enjoyed Cummins' battle with Roy - one good clever bowler full of pace up against one less skillful but mightily gutsy batsman.

I've also now read through all your posts today. Very pleased by your comments about the umpires - ie nothing said at all. I did express the hope in the last test that Chris Gaffaney would bring some order to the proceedings - still a long way to go but pleased the talk so far is about the play and the players.

Meanwhile, Siddle doing what Siddle does and England struggling at 142/6 ....

Credit due to Australia for excellent bowling and good attack plans.

But yes , very disappointing from England. There just doesn't seem to be the same belief there at the moment , that they show in White ball cricket.
Which is slightly odd as they are largely the same players. Have to think most of this is mental. Certainly this is not Cook Strauss Trott Pietersen Bell Collingwood Prior. But I think they are collectively playing well under their ability at present.

How much is down to WC hangover is anyone's guess ; but they need to snap out of it quickly.

In the last two tests England have played the team batting first has gone on to win despite having been:
85 all out (Eng vs Ire)
122-8 (Aus vs Eng)

Not over yet.

Buttler is not a test batsman either is he. England really do have a problem to to bottom.
It's a bit unfair to wtitebthem all off as flat track bullies though, there are players who have made good centuries in tough tests ( and tbf I'd even include Mo in that) and are clearly better than they have been producing lately. The two that stand out for that are Root and Bairstow.
England have long had a collective panic mode they've tended to hit and it does seem the intensity of all those must win WC matches has left a lot of them scrambled. Any coincidence that Burns is doing OK but dont play in that?
It's hard to see how they get back in this series from here, Smiths smug face is going to be unbearable

Hi guildford

Think you meant Cummins v Burns Smile Roy didn't fire a shot , I'm afraid.

I have really warmed to Burns. He had a fair slice of luck today. But he's - at the moment ! - top score again for England ; and he really puts a value on his wicket...

we wouldn't have a test side, theres is barely any 4 day cricket played and all the money for players is in the shorter format.

it isn't just us either, this aus batting line up is poor minus smith. the aussies will win this series because they have smith, better spin option and have bowled better

I'd take 250 from here, maybe even 225. Can't expect an awful lot from Archer/Broad/Leach (although Archer has a more than credible FC batting average).

The next 30 overs should be cash in time. Set batsman going after tired returning bowlers. Our rate has been good and if we had set batsman we could be adding 120 in this period before the second new ball. As it is we have 7 and 8 starting up and, while they're capable with the bat we don't have that much behind them.

Just need to eek out as many as we can and give ourselves something to bowl at. Smith did it with worse support in the first test, but we don't have Steve Smith at the crease.

If we can get to the 80 over mark with 260 or so on the board and give ourselves a few overs at Australia before a premature close in terms of overs (because of the over rate), then that would be a good recovery from here and, considering we were inserted, not the worst day.

Apart from the two drops ...and one set of overthrows ...the Australian fielding has been brilliant. A lot of very well timed shots have been cut off today - really helps to keep the batsmen under pressure when they get no reward for their good strokes.

And as mentioned before , their planning for each batsman has been first class. Something England really need to do much better. So far they seem to have about half a dozen plans for Smith - none of which work. (And they change them too often anyway). Plans for Head and Wade - if they have them ? - weren't too evident in the second innings at Edgbaston.

180 up . Seems a minor success Smile
