267-4 and Stokes is still in. You weren’t far out at all! I still think England need to get a good lead to counteract the disadvantage of probably not having a bowler of Anderson’s quality for the second innings and batting last, which is usually tough.Originally Posted by noel

Archer is not fit neither is Wood.
400+ should be a fair total.
I mid order and tail needs to dig in big time and bat long and frustrat the Aussie bowlers.
Cracking start to the series so far. Really enjoyed listening to TMS on my way home from the East Midlands this afternoon
I read a stat this morning that said only two test teams have lost at Edgbaston after a first innings lead.
Aussies and Pakistan.
England have a 50 lead.
Will Jimmy bat?
Jimmy did sort of.
Lead of 90👍
All to play for. Smith’s wicket, as ever, key
Looks as if all that, boring, incessant booing of Steve Smith by those half-witted England supporters did the trick then!
Visibility good except in Hill Fog
Rain 👍
From having Australia at 122 for 8 on the first day to hoping for rain on the fifth day. What a shambles.

Aye. That's English Cricket 😲
