Re: Cricket
Aussies declare on 527 for 7. My thinking on that is the Aussies will be looking to get a couple of wickets tonight to put pressure on England. I think Cook needs to work on at least 2 plans for a Test, this has been a shambles so far this Test.

Re: Cricket
Put it this way, I think by Monday evening it will be 2-1 to England in the series. On the one hand, it is not good because it shows flaws in the England captaincy by only having one plan. On the other hand, I think it would be good because it makes the series a bit more interesting. As long as England win the fourth Test I'll be happy. Won't be happy if it goes down to the last Test though.

Re: Cricket
England close the third day of the third Ashes Test against Australia on 294-7 - needing 34 to avoid the follow-on.

Re: Cricket
I have an increasingly pessimistic view of this Test. Hope I am wrong.
