By all means.
The market/traders have the Aussies in at 1.70 odd and England out to 3.3
Draw is blowing hard at 7s.
Tomorrow looks pretty clear on the forecast.
We've done enough today to have a chance at winning tomorrow

Enough time for 250 but also an option to play out a draw if needed depending on how things unfold

Think he is playing in the USA T20 tournament.
He’s playing in Major League Cricket I’m pretty sure.

That’s what was so annoying about the first innings.

Correct he’s captain
Normally one buys a rum at the bar. They brought the bottle on to the pitch?
Having 384, this is under the most extreme of pressure. Never mind the pitch.
Gotta say these guys have looked solid. Hardly a chance and not many streaky shots either. Scoring at a good rate.
Might be a lot of rain today but come back tomorrow and more of the same, they should be aiming to get the majority of the remaining runs.

Dampened 103 overs of new ball bowling, as is his job.Only faced an additional 103 overs to do it

Yeah but Crawley is still the best batsman, because Uzzie didn't Bazball properly.

I was thinking if we lose the last session to rain it wasn't the worst thing in the world for us, provided we got to tea 0 or 1 down.
My thinking there was that a hypothetical 1/190 is probably the time when we throw away a good position, based on what we've seen this series. It's counterintuitive to normal cricket thinking, because batsmen like momentum. But I kinda saw that as a good spot to aim for, go off and regroup and go again tomorrow. I don't like thinking that way and I don't think the batsmen would share that sentiment, but that was just my gut feel l.
But England will definitely be the happier team with the rain coming now. 240 runs is still a long way to go and we were in a great position to knock off another 50 or so before tea.

Love Broad's slip of tongue/what he really thought would happen "Tomorrow will be my last day of test cricket"
