I'd say this is huge longshot for eng. They need almost as much as aus scored in their second innings with 4 down and less depth in their batting line up.
The doubt the odds show is that stokes or bairstow could produce something very special. However 7s might be right against a different team, the aus attack will be very hard to take apart though.
I'd put Eng more at 12+.
But what do I know. Stokes/bairstow are probably 2 of a small group of batters you'd want in this situation
Shame 4 went down yesterday. If it was only 2 it'd be a really interesting morning!
Edit: the papers calling for a stoke miracle say enough lol

I can see the argument for not out. Have seen many times the ball pops back out when the elbows hit the ground on the way down and this has always been not out. By pushing the ball down in to the ground Starc's getting rid of that risk. A lot of players and former players saying should be a catch though, so maybe the rule needs looking at.
-
@Martin You're quite right. Law says: "The act of making a catch shall start from the time when the ball first comes into contact with a fielder’s person and shall end when a fielder obtains complete control over both the ball and his/her own movement."
Starc did not have complete control of his own movement when the ball touched the ground, so there's no question at all NOT OUT!
Very very tough for England still, but I do think they have a genuine chance if they can get a couple of productive partnerships. Two quick wickets though and it's all over. Broad coming in with just 6 wickets down makes for a very long and fragile tail. I would say the Betfair odds have it pretty much right as it stands.
-
@Nathan-Bennett were you out or not out camp? I think that's not out personally, went to ground without hand under it before making any other movement

Darcie Brown gets a good piece of Danni Wyatts off stump but thankfully the bails have been glued on
God knows how she survived that.
Stokes and Duckett bring the price back down nicely so you never know, might be another lay opportunity tomorrow.

Peanut on the draw @70

tmr maybe small scalping if cbfsome green played some angles well really needed half decent start for fat green
its all good
