This could also be a huge moment for Lyth. If he can stick it out to see us over the line.

Not really into cricket.
Not too keen on a lot of the Aussies that I've met over the years either though to be honest.

Stuff it, I'd be chuffed if we beat them at Tiddlywinks.
Come on England!

the ideal scenario would be Lyth and Bell getting us over the line

Two players in need of a massive pick me up.

There will be jitters in that dressing room

Several blokes out of form and Johnson has the ability to bounce through that middle order.

Surely we can't muck this up?

Bell started positively, very positively . Looking to take it to them and the pressure will be off 90 to win. Bell 16 from 8

Ian Bell returning to form at the right time - form is temporary and all that..

Brilliant performance from England though. We needed to bounce back. Expect a couple of changes for the Aussies - Adam Voges will surely go and it wouldn't surprise me to see Cummins replace Starc.

Someone like Graham Onions to replace James Anderson. I don't think England can afford Broad, Finn and Wood in the same side.

That's a really great result for us following the Lords test.

Well done to all the lads with particular praise to Bell and Finn for there match winning performances.

I'm off to see two Australian Rules Football games today, one in the afternoon at the MCG, where Collingwood play Melbourne, then in the evening to the Etihad (Melbourne version) to see Carlton play North Melbourne, and I will be going out of my way to engage with the Ozzies on all things cricket, especially the Edgbaston test  :D

Six wickets down and only one Aussie has made it to ten runs.
