Clarke & North steady the Aussie ship...291-4

Will Australia be pondering a declaration? 200 run lead, give the bowlers 20 overs to get 10 wickets?

Aus 375-5 dec....Clarke 103 no

Draw

Bit of a damp squib after lunch. England going into today were the only team that could have forced a win, but were quite toothless once the weather conditions removed the degree of swing seen in first innings. Hope Lee is back for next test, an Auzzie win, setting it up lovely for the final test.

Flintoff out of Eng side for 4th test

You have to fancy the Aussies this weekend, if the weather stays good I think they will win this test and level the series.

Apparently Matt Prior injured himself playing football in the warm up. England frantically searching for another keeper but if Aus choose to bat Collingwood will be behind the stumps!

England's day began badly when they were evacuated from their Leeds hotel at 0450 BST because of a fire alarm.

The players and staff were forced to wait outside for 20 minutes as heavy early morning rain lashed down in Yorkshire.

Not the best start for them

England start Strauss gone already

Bopara a goner too...22-2

Bit of a collapse by Eng 43-4. England picked Prior and presumably thought he'd be recovered by the time he had to bat. He's in already.

England 73-6 SHAMBLES

Some session for Australia. They've made sh1te of the English batting order.

Bopara isn't the second cousin of an international batsman. His defense is absolutely shocking.

Why didn't the Aussies pick Stuart Clark before?? 7 overs, 3 wickets for 7 runs
