    Eng will be happy if they can reduce that deficit below 100 from where they were

    @bayimports Will give them a tiny window to win - a somewhat better chance of a draw.

    Both still pretty slim chances in my book. With Lyon vs Jacks and bowling last, Oz appear to have the trump card.

    think they are a spin bowler short myself

    Thata boy Archer, absolutely carrying England this match. Crawley, Duckett, Pope, take note of how your best bowler has shown you how to bat in a test match.

    Starc steps up, Stokes's bowled just as I was idly wondering about the deficit really shrinking

    Archer goes for 51, that's a hell of a knock from him given the circumstances. Has given England an absolute sliver of hope, but, they're going to have to fucking roll the Aussies on a very good batting pitch, so still almost no chance unless Archer can really fire up.

    Arguably England's best couple of sessions of the series, simply by virtue of showing a bit of guts.

    I can't believe he didn't review that. As a left hander, if I had the benefit of DRS I would have reviewed every single LBW from a right arm over the wicket bowler unless it hit me on the full.

    Not as good as yesterday but call it a pass mark. Good call I think to take 20 overs at them.

    Maybe he's a good T20 buy. But Cameron Green must be one of the lowest averaging Test number 5s for Australia - 34.

    Wonder if Khawaja has done enough to save his Test career at the expense of Green, when Smith is back.

    Most overrated cricketer since Shane Watson.

    He must have a hell of an agent.

    270+ is already more than England are going to make batting 4th. Head and Carey have done well here.

    How long until the declaration?

    Green is turning out to be a bit of a myth really. They are desperate to make him a top order player without any real justification. That record might fly if he was batting at 7 and bowling a lot.

    He'll keep his spot because Inglis has done nothing to keep his, but Webster must be feeling a bit gipped.

    He'll also keep his spot because he's in his 20s

    Inglis will go. If they are smart they will drop Green to 7.
