			I think once Root is out England will declare, now he is close to getting a double century.

			Make that 6 down, 4 to go.  Hope the Aussies can at least make it into Day 5.  Otherwise it will be a day of highlights all day.

			Yes, although with that 7th wicket I would have been inclined to give Agar the benefit of the doubt.  No clear evidence that it nicked the bat, hot spot showed nothing.  England might have won both tests, however the umpiring needs to be sorted out urgently.
