    I lvoe it how the Aussie don't ruin good traditions with PC bullshit.

    Just showed Bob Hawke doing his annual sculling of a pint at the SCG.

    Looks good for 80

    That careless shot by Root last night could well cost England quite dearly.

    Nothing in the pitch, a tiring Australian attack and the tailenders looking pretty comfortable - it's hard to think that if Malan and Root had still been together this morning that England wouldn't have been looking at more like 450.

    Sydney pitch should have something for the spinners by the 4th innings, so they need to be setting Oz some runs.

    Yeah Crane and Ali are both looking decent, so I'd think we'd need at least 450 to give ourselves a chance in the game.

    Looming as an interesting Day 5 finish on Monday.

    Christ on a bike, standards for being a good spinner have taken a massive nose dive since Murali and Warnie called it a day.

    Khawaja gets a cheeky hundy, Smith heads towards another and gets the test average to a ridiculous 64. Business as usual.

    Good day to be at the beach if you're English in Sydney. Speaking of which, I'm off to the pool. It's starting to get warm here.

    Normal service has resumed and England are back to being a pile of rubbish. The Ashes rarely live up to the hype...

    Hate to say it but the grumpy @Baron-Silas-Greenback was right, this series has been a dud overall.

    Fucked up that there can be no hotspot, almost nothing on snicko and clearly missed the bat just by looking at it. How can that be enough to overturn?

    If Steve Smith gets injured I’m sure Jimmy Anderson will be quick to lament the poor depth of Australian batting...

    @no-quarter for the fans who pay for an entertaining contest sure

    But the CA accountants might beg to differ. Lots of advertising, merch and hotdog sales while us peasants were watching open wicket batting practice for hours on end in Perth Melbourne and now Sydney

    But fuck it, the Aus team did all that was asked of them so good on them

    Ps Kerry OKeefe was once again the best commentator in world cricket
