    TBH thought we weren't getting this as of an hour ago. Then Bairstow and Buttler fell to give me false hope.

    Well done England, avoided the whitewash ( thanks to the weather, let’s be honest ) and at least showed some real guts at times.

    Great finish.

    England deserved the draw.

    What a fun test.

    Fucking great finish. Should have swapped Smith for Marnus because the jammy lesbian used all his luck.

    Still. Great fucking game.

    Drop Harris for anyone, maybe rest Starc for someone, and roll on Hobart

    They were lucky it rained, I don’t reckon they woulda managed it if it didn’t

    They were also unlucky that they had multiple injuries during the game so it goes both ways

    Lot of maybes here. Could have declared with Khawaja on 70ish instead of waiting. Could have declared straight after he got 100, or when the lead hit 320.

    But ultimately they got within a bee's dick, dropped 3 catches, missed a fairly easy runout, and couldn't death bowl well enough.

    That's cricket

    @nta I would assume Khawaja will open and Head will take his spot back in the middle order?

    Nice fight shown by England to survive. Well outclassed on this tour but unlike 2013/14, they've shown that they do have a bit of ticker in their dressing room.

    You don’t mess with a guy who has scored a couple of tons…….

    BUT then again……series won, lots of time to and opportunity to fuck around and experiment etc.

    What do England do ? Surely they have to get Burns in for Hameed. A potential streaky 30 or 40 is worth more than a poking and prodding single figure score.

    Get that guy back to county cricket to see if he’s any chance of a recall.

    @mn5 Khawaja's opened before where as Head is only really a middle order bat, both deserve to play in the 5th test and Harris has hardly cemented his spot in the side so its a no brainer for me.
