Unfortunately England performed a near miracle this afternoon and then lost three wickets for fifty three runs. I think only England can do things this farcical. England can now bat as slowly as they like. They just have to make sure that Australia are not given over two days with the bat and less than three hundred runs to score. There will be a lot of laughter in Sydney if that happens! All the pressure the Aussies were under must have evaporated when the Australians took three cheap wickets.
