This is going nowhere for England. Cummins at nine hasn't been inconvenienced in the slightest.
50 minutes into the session and not one over bowled by their best two bowlers - even though England are insisting Anderson is fit...

I think Root has put more revs on the ball than Moeen in this game.
Very ordinary.

Well by some miracle made it to 250, Aus barely hanging in there and England just can't land the killer blow.

On cricinfo:
I dunno who'd be more insulted, Allan Border or the scratch that Allan Border captained.
Divyam: "Steve Smith is great example and inspiration....... Hopefully he'll be able to do what Allan border did, made an invincible team from scratch.

Cummins gone for 42, new high Test score and good support to Smith in getting Aus close to England.
287/8 at Tea on Day 2.
Advantage Aus in that session.

Aus Trail by 4 , 1 Wicket left. That drop by Paine could be costly in the wash up.
Edit:Aus take the lead ...

There’s an embarrassing drop off in quality from Anderson and Broad to the rest of England’s attack.

England should pick Tymal Mills purely to bowl fast Yorkers at Australa’s tail.

Same could be said for Australia's Batting outside of Smith.

Top effort from Seasick Steve. Second provided great support and showed up the specialist bats and the keeper bat. Nasty session ahead for the Pomgolians.

What’s Cook’s average in Australia in his last 6 tests here? I. Guessing it’s something like 18. Never mind his reputation, if he’s not good enough anymore, then questions have to be asked as to his position in the side.

Who else could we pick? We've gone through about 20 openers in the last 20 series. Shite or not, Cook will stay at the top until he retires.

Chef playing like he is still on the "these are the special menus that you shall serve us from" tour.
Agree with Dello. He will not be dropped. The Poms no doubt remember Chinhead's retirement when he refused to carry the drinks for Monty.
