Burns will go on to have a good series now that he's steadied himself

That was good, more "proper" test batting. Three more hours of this would be nice, better still get past tea let the Aussies have an hour to negotiate.
Don't agree about Roy, I think he has the skills he to work on adapting his technique to play long innings, the ball that got him was a good one, it happens to openers (I know as that's where I bat) Look how Burns has adjusted his technique, I think he can make the mental adjustment, given time. It's not as if we're overladen at 1&2.

Match evenly poised going in to the 4th day, England maybe just shading it. To state the obvious a lot depends on this first session. If Smith & Head continue in the same vein then the balance will shift, so early wickets needed for you blokes.

Bit premature with that!
If they can't nick out one or two by lunch the Aus should be favorites but time could be an issue. If the scoring rate drops off they might not leave enough time to bowl England out.
It just doesn't make sense that he can wander across his stumps and never get pinned LBW, perhaps a bit of extra pace might help, a 94mph yorker should prove difficult in the next match.Smith is a batting miracle. I've never seen someone so technically flawed score so many runs. He must have the eyesight of an eagle.I don't need a lift, I need ammunitionComment

They're doing it because the replacement balls are last year's batch and for whatever reason they swing. You eventually got the umpire to change the ball and it swing and you got a couple of wickets.Comment
