Have fun trying to survive on this.

Initial Day 4 photo of the pitch. Dem cracks and where they are. Lyon should have a field day with some of them.

It'll take something special from here for England, but do not count them out, ever. They won't give this way. If they put away the 'get out' shots which Cook, KP, Stokes, Prior all played, and makes Australia get them out, they might just survive 5 sessions.

If Clarke doesn't declare before lunch he puts the Aussies in a tough position. England are gonna bowl really slowly today, to try and delay the declaration as much as possible. 5 minute overs lol.

There's a minimum amount of overs and if they purposely stall (which England do all the time) then Cook will probably get suspended for a match

Well at least Cook doesn't need to ask the ump for leg stump anymore. hahhahahahaha

yes, that is true, however that only applies to a day's play, you can bowl 20 overs in the first session, and if you bowl 40 in the final one then it's ok. Also if you bowl the team out then you are safe. Also if the team declares, which is what will happen.

You don't need to bowl 90 overs in a day, as when an innings end the overs remaining goes back to time.

You're not "safe" if you bowl the team out

You in trouble if you deliberately take too long/do take too long

That's only for 1 dayers PB. If you bowl the team out in time it doesn't matter because 50 overs/side

But it's very relevant in Test Cricket as if you bowl too slow you're giving the opposition less time to bowl you out #illegal

This is some of the best pure hitting of a cricket ball I've seen in a long time :o great to watch! Never been doubted that Watto has the talent, just has to get his mindset right...
