England's batsmen really are thick ba$tards at times.
Good day from Strauss, it's a shame Cook couldn't go on and get his century. Hopefully, England can knock off another 100 or so in the morning, then get some wickets, weather permitting.
As an aside, I've taken the gamble of purchasing a cheap Day 5 ticket at Headingley with the deal of no refund.

KP got a beauty of a ball but Prior played loosely and whilst Colly plays that shot a lot it's an awful way to get out and especially to a crap bowler. Freddie did his usual woft outside of off stump so we can hardly be surprised.
Our batsmen seem to want to come in and play at 100mph the whole time, whatever happened to playing defensive shots and waiting for the right time to play shots, Australia showed in the first Test how batsmen should pace and innings.
