I can't wait roll on Friday, I think the toss will be key and the first morning session could well set down a marker for the series.

going to be a cracker of a series.
just hope England's openers can stand up to the Aussie attack. Losing Leach was a big blow,

With Stokes dodgy knee making him doubtful to bowl much in the Ashes, and before Ali was recalled - there was talk of Root being the spinner - allowing England to have a 4 man seam attack of Broad, Anderson, Robinson and Wood.

Listening to Steve Harmison just now he believes hStokes even though perhaps not fully fit can still be a substantial sasset in the series , not sure about that myself

His mindset and approach are an asset as much as his bowling and batting. We will just have to wait and see.

Stokes hasn't bowled a ball in a first class match since February.

Stokes looks born to lead'

Sir Alastair Cook

Former England captain on BBC 5 Live Breakfast

Ben Stokes looks born to lead. He was always a leader in the dressing room, people followed him just because of his personality. But the way he has captained, the way he has influenced games tactically as well has been brilliant.

England have struggled to take 20 wickets away from home and on flat wickets. Under his leadership, they have taken 20 wickets every time.

Something in this for both sides. I'm still hedging for a draw because of the weather.

Tough call, but its been a decent day for England, Pope had a bit of bad luck and Moeen was a bit silly in losing his wicket and I suppose Stokes as well.

Joe Root what a batsman.

Quite often what you don't see on the TV with Root is the way he manipulates the field to be where they don't want to be, then punishes you.

Khawaja 51, is gonna take some shifting, Head looks to be settling in as well, with 4 4'1/2 hrs left in the day, could be a difficult rest of the day for England in the field.
