If this test goes more than three and a half days, I’ll be surprised.

Bump…

Southee was getting nothing out of the wicket, making it fairly easy going for the home side.

One almighty collapse needed from England for us to get out of this one

Definitely possible. It is England.

I’m really hoping the shitty conditions lead to a bit of swing in our favour

booboo

By the way ...

... just to make it clear...

...I'm off to bed.

We do what we can.

Bring Jamieson on !!!!!!!!!!

Worth pointing out that Patel has bowled two shitty overs all test. What a typical “let’s play a spinner for the sake of a spinner” waste of a selection.

Maybe he would have been more useful on the final day... I still would have taken Wags

I think you get banned from the fern for saying anything otherwise

So @Booboo has been sent to bed. Now time for some desperate attempts at reverse jinxes?

We are done for. Even if we get Stokes and Root out the guys to come can easily smash the winning runs

We’re halfway there

We need several of the English players to have a CdG-like day today...

Root is on 87*, that would jinx him if he was an Australian...

13 away from test hundred number 25 and 13 away from 10,000 test runs.

Jinx the fucker !!!!!!!

If there are any more straws left to clutch please let me know

Donsteppa

I suppose it's a big ask to win a test match when your top four perform woefully with the bat.

On the plus side, Kane is definitely due in the next Test:

No point in playing a spinner if he's only going to get two overs in the whole test. (One last desperate reverse jinx to get Ajaz a five-for)

MN5

Well done Root. 10,000 test runs and 25 tons is awesome.

This is the kind of image the fuck you bloody crowd will flog over while talking up Kohli and how amazing he is.

Donsteppa

Timmy getting hammered in this spell.

Southee 0/83 and Boult 1/73 at this stage.
