I suspect the weather may have more of a say, very heavy rain tipped overnight and tomorrow.

302/4 Collingwood gone for 16.

FFS England, don't hand the iniative back at the end of a good day. We should have been 350-2 or maybe 3. At this rate it will be 5 or 6.

Giving the Aussies the initiative here big style, what a ridiculous shot from Collingwood especially - batted so sensibly on Sunday and then goes and does that a few days later, idiot.

321/5

Prior gone

England lost all 5 wickets for 121.

It's all going a bit Pete Tong again.

Fecking hell Freddie. Strauss is holding the fort, we need to tail to wag a bit and hopefully push towards 420+. If we lose another wicket tonight we could really struggle.

Shine a light.

Flintorf's gun (in a Tony Greig stylie lol)

364-6 at end of play with Strauss on 161.

Very good run rate but 2 or 3 wickets too many imo.

We need the tail to wag as it did in the first innings at Cardiff and it'd be great if Strauss could get to 200 for Strauss himself, his captaincy and the England squad.

All in all I think I'd say a drawn day. Hopefully we'll be able to take some wickets tomorrow now that we have the four seamers back in the team.

There's a lot of rain forecast for London for the coming days.
