Khawaja can become like  Laxman, Kusal perera if he wins it for Australia.

hes got more match wining centuries that Gujara in the last 3 years

Khwaja has batted on all 5 days and is still batting.    Discount Duckula can't even last one session.

Khawaja wasted so many half trackers from Moeen. He should have deposited each one of them into stands.

Green is a ferocious hitter of the ball but also has a rock solid defensive technique. Very similar to Pant. Potential ATG in the making if he keeps his fitness intact.

[vvvslaxman]

ONce the target is under 100 things will get interesting.

[vvvslaxman]

108 in 42 overs 

[Kothili]

25 overs to new ball. Aussies better get going with the scoring rate.

[vvvslaxman]

Due to rain no reverse on offer.

Anderson not being Anderson has hurt Eng. Broad has been brilliant. Not having Wood and another spinner has hurt them badly.

Zero penetration from Anderson.

He is carrying a groin niggle. A reason why he was hardly used in the first innings. STokes rarely bowls. They basically have 2.5 bowlers. That's it.

[Kothili]

101 to get

[Frustrated]

Only 100 runs needed.   75% chance of Aus win from here on.  

[Stan AF]

Aussies should win it before the new ball.

Yea. pitch has nothing in it. They can bat all day. Only Broad can stand between their win unles Stokes himself can bowl.

I am sure if they get close enough, they'll make a quick dash for it. Smith/Labu failures have been disappointing. This would have been a wrap long ago if even one of them had clicked.

[Vivek92]

Good over from Root, very underrate bowler.

Respect for Anderson 40 year old still playing cricket but England have serious issues they still can’t find replacements got him and broad.
