Stokes has been poor as the 4th seamer. His place has definitely got to be under threat from chris woakes who is fit again now.

Australia should be looking at accelerating now, and declaring at Tea.

Gives 1 session to rattle a couple of wickets

No chance is Stokes place under threat, hes doing well as a batting all rounder imo

No problem with Stokes. Batting well and this is a flat pitch. If and when he bowls poorly on a bowler friendly pitch it may be time to reconsider.

Aus batting today has been poor and slow for some daft reason. They will be lucky to make 550 at this rate.

It seems like its only me and you on here lefty, no doubt when root is batting they will come out the woodwork.

Correct Boss...Wait for a few 4's and they'll crawl out from under their rocks...

Few wickets and... <tumbleweeds>

I have been watching... England need to bat 4/ 4 and half sessions and a draw is on..
I don't go on vaction like Lefty does when India lose.

Ah bless Englandwhoelse, think most posters know I dont hide...

But nice to see you, been a while.

What do you think of the bowling attack so far? Bowling has been poor, or would you point to the pitch on this occasion?

posted on 17/7/15

the pitch is flat.. It will take a gigantic effort from Australia to force a result on this wicket..

And there is rain forecast for sunday ..

If the pitch is that "good", I'd expect England to bat out a couple of days too.....

If it goes this way, the Lords grounds man, I think his name is Mike Hunt ( ) should be sacked.

Dunno what Australia are doing batting on. If they don't take any wickets tonight they are putting their eggs in one basket..

I get the feeling they are not planning to stick around for the rest of the day

posted on 17/7/15

Australia have just lost 2 overs from the day..

with 3 days left.....dont think 2 will make all the difference.

Ok now lets see how England get on on this super dead, flat tarmac of a pitch

Heavy Rain forecast for Sunday

If England had been on 337-1 overnight we would be hearing all this chat about how flat the pitch is?
