Like Seemer I am worried that Ponting has declared to early. Two days is enough for England to win this test and I still believe they have the talent in the side to do it.

I have no problem with a draw in this game - but this will be worse than Adelaide if England win - and I have a horrible feeling about this one.

Please Australia have mercy, I'm off to bed soon and I hope Hoggy is frustrating the life out of someone when I wake up. I might even come down and watch some, I'm such a sadist.

Oh grief.

I have to say i expected us to be at least 4 down when i got up so to see Cook and Bell still in there fighting is an encouraging sign.I don't know how they have played but hopefully they are giving the Aussies a glimpse of why we rate them both so highly.

As for A-Y having a horrible feeling surely he knows that England will bat well today,get within sight before choking on day 5.

Damn you Ponting

If we lose this one because of his silly declaration he should be stripped of the captainship once and for all.

Morning Greg,

They have played pretty well with not many scares; Mcgrath is judged a potential catch (Warnie not impressed!) and a few balls have misbehaved but all in all not too bad

Morning Under,

I wouldn't get too worried just yet if I were you.

Yes i can't see the Aussies having a problem winning.They know and we know our tail starts at 6.

One can live in hope that Gilchrist's drop comes back to bite him on the bum.

Why are they not bowling their best bowler Clark?
