The Ashes 2Nd Test - Adelaide Day 4

[seekeerz]

Potential for rain and even thunderstorms today might make for an interesting days play ... Will the Ozzies bat on (can't imagine why they would) or put England back in, bearing in mind the possibility on rain delays.

[seekeerz]

England will bat when play commences - good thinking as it's overcast and humidity will make for an unpleasant day, before the rain starts.

Will they have regrouped and be able to bat on or is Johnson still on a high and the other bowlers as well ?? Time will tell...

[seekeerz]

England are 2/65 at lunch - so far no rain, but it continues to threaten and the forecast for tomorrow is also for showers ..... Are you lot doing a rain dance over there hoping for a draw ?

[seekeerz]

Pieterson 26 and Root on 38, going along nicely, perhaps they've steadied the ship a it after yesterday's fun and games. Certainly the Ozzie bowlers seem to have lost some of their sting ......

[seekeerz]

Root on 60 and Pietersen just reached 50, still going steadily

[seekeerz]

Play resumes after tea - 4/170 but I can hear rain outside ...fingers crossed it goes away

[ChillDoubt]

2 overs left in the day but Stokes is gone and Johnson is serving up chin music to Broad. Will the Aussies ask for the extra half hour?

[ChillDoubt]

Broad and Prior survive to take the match into Day 5, a miracle in itself.
Rain forecast tomorrow, will Clarke come to rue not enforcing that follow on?
Hope springs eternal!

[BlueToffee]

Time for Mike Brearley to come out of retirement!

[ChillDoubt]

We need Chris Tavare and Sir Geoffrey of Boycott to come in next!
