Bloody hell this is nerve wracking and I'm not even watching it! I think the next hour is CRUCIAL! If we can bat it and get another 30 runs and use up another 10-15 overs, we are almost there I reckon!

australia will never make 240 or however huge our lead is... surely They have a chance with 40 overs, but it is diminsihing with every over that we bat! Be good as well, if we could bat on thru the overs, so we can celebrate with our players at the crease rather than in the field?

Cant wait to get home and start watching this! And am deffo watching the highlights prog, that will contain all the excitement of today and the twists and turns! I think there is more depth to this side now, when the chips are down, someone will stand up and bat well, strauss, freddie, pietersen, when we needs wickets, someone will bowl well, hoggard, freddy, jones, harmison, it all bodes very well for the future, especially if we can sort out bell and keeper jones and make them better players.

Pieterson's playing brilliantly at the moment and Giles is supporting him really well too. Australia would have to do something pretty special to win from this position.
