I imagine they'll see if Root can get his 200 then declare, or declare when he gets out. Whichever is soonest.
Or declare at lunch if neither of the above has happened.

Mate you have a ticket for tomorrow right? A chance to witness a little bit of history I think. I'm envious big time!
Rumour has it that you're right mate.
Yep, that's was all about root getting a 200,had he not been so close I think they'd have already declared.
Let's see what England's bowlers can do to this Aussie batting now then.

That was probably the worst thing that could have happened to the aussies catching root.
The longer we stayed out the better cos realistically a draw would have been the best they could hope for.

Well England still have two full days to bowl them out. Given the state of their batting order and the quality of the England bowl attack and wicket breaking up - I'd be stunned if they got even close to a draw.
Watson going for some balls here he should be leaving well alone.
If he keeps doing it we should get him.

Watson LBW?
Whoduthunkit?!

Bit of a shame he didn't review it.
LOL - And after getting in. Why he opens the batting for them is beyond me.
Rogers gone!
His head was battered then.
They all seem shot mentally.
I'd not be surprised if they all went on the lash after this & were told to take the attitude, fuck it, nothing to lose, just go & play. Cos currently they're all over the shop psychologically.

Whoopsie! Didn't want to leave that!
BOM BOM BOM
ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST

And another gone, another gone, another one bites the dust.
Boom! Aussies Root-ed!
And again!
That looks a nice healthy position now.
Could get this finished up today.

Man of the match will be an arduous decision...
Weird one that on agar.
No hotspot but definite noise.

Snicko isn't, but audio is, and there was clearly a noise.
The video doesn't prove the ball was past the bat. That was rubbish analysis by Sky there. At that speed the ball could move more than a yard for every frame of video captured. How can you possibly attempt to show the video and audio simultaneously in those conditions? That was just stupid.

Aye at full speed it was out all the way. No hotspot though. Strange - Ammunition for Aussies to complain.
It's better when they complain. Every leg before we get after they've spunked their reviews, I'm praying hard for an inside edge. Just makes it funnier.
It was a ridiculous comparison trying to align the audio & video.
You'd need a team working on the mathematics for a while including mic distance & frame count before even trying to sync it.
It's a bit stupid really. The technology is all there they just need to spend the money on it. The ICC spending money on DRS would seem a good place to start. Sky using a camera with more FPS seems to be a no-brainer. I've seen those kind of decisions a lot and that would surely help it.
Come on! Gotta finish this tonight!
Watch them drag this out to tomorrow and go first ball in the morning.
