Doug Insole once wrote that he believed very few players enjoyed Test cricket. It's fair to say all the Australian team enjoyed this morning.

Fair enough, the Aussies have bowled really well but the batting has been abject.

This is humiliating. Why can we not find a few batsmen who can stay in?

England win the toss and then proceed to toss the win.

Terrible. Conditions suited for batting, so no excuse for that abject display.

In Ben we trust.
Aussies looking wobbly with not a lot left to come. We should run through them here.

England require 359 to win, a piece of cake with that batting line up.

The Aussies are spoken to by the umpire for too much sledging. Are they getting a bit frustrated by us finally showing some grit?

Hopefully this will be good for their mindset going forward. All the time in the world, just chug along, be patient. If we reach 250 tomorrow with 4 or 5 wickets left, the Aussies will start doubting themselves.
