It only takes a couple of hundreds from a couple of players and we should make it. Here is hoping they can do it.

It's worth listening only for the legend that is Blowers.

We are in serious trouble though .May aswell write this test off now.

Send for the England A-Team..... they can't do any worse.

In fact if the Austrians carry on and get about 260 runs in their second innings, that will give them a lead of 700 runs just before lunch. Then they can put England into bat and it will all be over by the end of the day.

Then the real headache will start for England. How to pick themselves up in time for the second test.

[i]BTW - it was the largest margin in test history when the follow-on was not applied.[i]

We are being well and truly thrashed.Vaughan, Trescothick and Simon Jones are big misses.

Hoggard and Flintoff seem like the only bowlers who are really going to test the Aussie's attack.I would give Monty a go next text, he cannot do much worse.If Harmison and Anderson continue to underperform we may aswell replace them, what's the use in having out of form players?

Australia Declare

England need 648 runs to win the game, or to bat for 2 Days to save the game.

Current score England 3-0

looks like I was wrong I expected them to declare when they had a lead of about 700
