Grey skies will help their seamers, but a soggy ball will not.

Morning session is likely ruined, so it gives two sessions to get a result.

We've lost cheap wickets from our top order, so I don't see us trying to go fast. I figure this one likely ends up as a draw or England win if we have a batting collapse.

Trust Pommy weather to ruin a brilliantly set up final day

If there's two full sessions there won't be a boring draw, unless we are hanging on for dear life.

Stokes will go all out attack to win so there'll be enough run scoring opportunities no matter how much play there is.

I think Aus takes out the win today

That would be glorious. We've been fractionally behind the contest for 85% of this Test match. Edging it at the death would be sweet as.

'It might not survive': Bazball is a cult and Poms should be embarrassed about claiming they're Test cricket's saviours

After two days of nauseating self congratulation over the lukewarm success of Bazball, it was hard to imagine England's cricket team and fans could…

You have to love 6 weeks solid of Ashes cricket in primetime at this particular stage of our footy cycle.

I will stay interested and watch as long as Australia gets games into the kids.

Given their spinning stocks consist of checks notes a pulled out of retirement Monty Panasar because there is nobody
else and maybe Jack Leach, I'm thinking probably not that flash

I was wondering more about how their batting tactics will go on a pitch turning at right angles on the first day!

Yeah I know but I don't think it matters how they bat, their bowling attack won't take 20 Indian wickets over there

Highlight of every Ashes is the Aussie journos giving the English a lesson in our culture

Reckon this is why they're watching all these BT clips

That's not "test" cricket.
