I watched most of this over the last couple of days and it was absolutely awesome. The powers of concentration of the man are unbelievable although Darell Hair gave not out for a close caught behind when he was on 0. It was closer than Michael Vaughans anyway. I'm afraid we will lose this match by about an innings and 400 runs!  |

Be nice if we could force a draw though, we are on day 4 aren't we and still have 5 wickets and the next innings left? If they want to convince me that they have changed, they will play out a draw!!!  |

I can't see it Andy. There are feeling the pressure. The only consolation is that we have a keeper that can bat at the crease but once of of these are out the tail is a long one. Look for us following on mid afternoon and losing by tomorrow lunchtime!  |

Vaughan & Trescothick are putting up a good fight in the 2nd innings now, both have reached their half centuries. We can still salvage a draw out of this game.

They're 124-0 now. It's the first time the openers have clicked this series.
It's going to be a hard slog though. They have all day to bat tomorrow and if they carry on just after tea they might just reduce their deficit to 0.
