Went to the last Adelaide Test 3 years' ago and so them win the Series in Sydney, great atmosphere.

Watching in New Zealand where there is a 2 hour time difference and England are 126/7 with Mitchell Johnson taking 3 wickets in the last over. 3 years ago he was all over the place hence the song but this time WOW!

Not much/ any hope now and it is all about whether Australia enforce the follow on. Hope they don't.

Lost cause I am afraid

Aussies over 450 ahead with 2 second innings wickets down. With a lead of 398 I would have thought the follow on was a no-brainer against a team that hasn't made 200 in three opportunities. I suppose it gives our batsmen the chance to find some form & save this one, but there's probably more chance of me winning the lottery.

Now 500 ahead with 3 wickets down. Geoff Boycott was less than complimentary about Joe Root's dismissal, claiming that a chocolate mouse had more brains.
