Khawaja gone for 23, 52-3. So, basically it's 164-3.

I'd say try to keep it under 300, but if we can't even break 100, is there any point? I'd just say shake and give it to them now :lol:

Are you suggesting that we throw in the towel? Good grief, no! :whistle:
Just need to find someone that can set off the fire alarm at the Aussie team hotel several times tonight, we also need to find someone that could add a really long-lasting & very strong laxative into their drinks. :lol:

And somehow, Mike, we'd still collapse - even if England were batting against themselves! :lol: :lol:

Brilliant comment, this:
Ben Woodcock: Some bloke called Extras has scored more than 10 of the England batsmen.

That's not true though, Jimmy Extras only scored 3 runs and 9 batsmen scored more than him- he was pathetic! :lol:

Don't forget that all of these Australians are descendants of criminals that we sent there in ships many years ago, they deserve things thrown at them. Look at Ben Stokes, a model citizen who has never been in any trouble whatsoever.
He's probably a Liverpool fan too. :'(

Wade caught on 33, 164-5.
How come none of the Aussie's are called Bruce, I thought every bloke in Australia was called Bruce?

Paine out now too, 164-6. :thumb:
