That's an attainable total. If two Aussies get in then they they can get the runs, and if they lose a few they have the ability to go defensive.  I hope Root doesn't get to regret the declaration.

Hats off to the Aussies if they chase this down without Smith. Root had to give us enough overs to bowl at. Still think it’ll be draw tbh

[RowlattsFox]

Can't stand the faces Broad pulls. Hopefully gets into one of his incredible spells though, this is sort of situation where it happens.

Warner gone, Smith out squeaky bum time now for the Aussies

[Izzy]

Archer is Fvckin rapid. Keep it going son

[Goober]

****ing come on then

[leicsmac]

Archer is one of the best things to happen to England Test cricket for some time.

[trabuch]

Call me a plastic if you like - but I'm going to struggle to keep an eye on our Chelsea match.

[Goober]

I'll definitely be watching this

Archer you violent beauty.

[RowlattsFox]

****ing hell

[everton carr]

Sorry to learn that Sky are getting rid of David Gower class guy

[martyn]

Archer sconning the concussion replacement within 2 balls. 

 

Brutal. 

[Goober]

**** me Jof. Vicious. Awesome stuff

[Izzy]

Jeez he nearly took his block off with that.

 

These West Indian bowlers are dangerous 

[HybridFox]

That delivery from Joffra. absolute fire!

There's no way Aus will be able to chase this, England can just put almost everyone on the boundary and bowl wide outside legstump if needs be.

 

If by some miracle they somehow do, then anyone who criticises Root for the declaration decision afterwards is being monumentally harsh.

I'm scarred by having watched England set the West Indies a total of 344 to win in 1984 and see them do it for the loss of one wicket in 66 overs.

Not a chance in hell the Aussies chase this down!

[EastAnglianFox]

One more before tea and its on

[Izzy]

Game on again

[trabuch]

I've given up on football. This now has my full attention.

[EastAnglianFox]

Dont know why but i always break it down into hour sessions, think if we can have 5 down by 6pm then hopefully in that last hour we can do it.

[trabuch]

Okay back to football.

[Izzy]

Roy not dropping that dolly could have made it interesting 

[katieakita]

Couple of quick wickets 5 down now

[marko]

What a grab!
