…I think drops like that from Root take away the momentum, take the stuffing out the team, quieten the crowd & give the Aussies a lift.

Agreed. The bowlers work so hard to create the chances, their heads must really go down. Marsh had just hit woakes for six so that wicket would have made it worth it.
These two at the crease have both been let off with relatively easy chances. Let's hope they don't punish us.
Need a wicket soon or this partnership will hurt. Both these batters should have been out for very little
England keep coming up short in the big moments. This is a very big partnership in the context of the game.
He must be in some form Marsh, smashed his way to a 50...
Oh hang on he's not played for four years.

94 off 108 balls - bazball done right.
All of the good work in before lunch undone. England that.

Aus in control now, as I predicted.
Was hoping we'd get them out for 150.
It wasn't really though. Both these batsmen should have been out to regulation catches for under 20.
England's catching and basic errors are the problem. And now the bowling is not as threatening because drops always affect your morale in the field.
Every time England have had a chance in this series to seize the initiative, they have made basic mistakes. They haven't been good enough.

They'll be disappointed if they dont get to 350 here
