DRS works well.
You can't knowingly misuse it and then claim that its not working and you want another go ffs. If Australia get it into their thick skulls not to waste it then they might be surprised. Until then they deserve every little bit of bad luck it throws their way

Excellent imitation of an English batting collapse.
69-4. Aussies falling apart. Serious opportunity for England to enforce a follow on ... Aussies still need 92 just to avoid.
What an awful shot, need patience in this situation like Bell and Trott yesterday, having already got away with a shot being dropped early on you'd think he'd be careful.
This could be an embarrassing loss for the aussies.
That would be an attacking move, Cook's not going to do that!
In seriousness, I think not enforcing it is sensible (if it comes to that) this pitch will get better to bat on for another day I reckon and England don't want to be left with a tricky chase in the 4th innings.
I'm amazed he hasn't been told by the coach that he is not to review any LBW's as he's almost inevitably going to be plumb with his technique.
I don't think we'd want to bat 4th on this in this weather, the pitch is just going to get drier and start to crumble in the footholes.
Agreed, in any rate talk of it is far too early. Clarke, Smith and Haddin are the 3 Aussie players I would back to do well in this situation.
One down
And there's the 5th.
One down
World class mockers
Oh well, Clarke looks in world class nick, no way he'll throw his wicket away here.
90-5. still need 71 to avoid follow on
I think my 500 run prediction is looking off here....
Clarke only hope now for Aus.

Clarke gone
Clarke out. 91-6. Follow on coming I tell you

Australia A are 151-8 currently as well.
As hilarious as that is from an English point of view it's worrying for cricket in general.

Australia are like England of the 90s. It's hilarious to watch.
I thought that it didn't bode well for the Aussies that despite England playing crap for a large part of the 1st test they still managed to win. England were only going to get better.

Can they reach 100?
Come on, do Haddin too......World class mockers

How the feck did that work?
So it turns out I was right after all eh?
Australian batting is shite
Australian batting is shite
I'm still expecting Australia to put on a good score, though, the batsmen to come are in excellent nick.
Good man
That kinda proves how poor the rest of them are
Not been able to watch the game today. Is the Aussie collapse due to great bowling or shit batting? Pitch was very flat yesterday, how the feck are they 94/6??
What is this nonsense?
Forward Agar to try to make a match of this...

He's crocked, really not moving well.
96-7
Stop ruining cricket you Aussie losers!
whats a good score in your books. this isn't 20twenty
I'd be surprised if England enforced the follow on if it comes to that. Too hot to flog your bowlers for another 3 or 4 sessions. Go in to bat, get a lead of 500+, then 2 days to bowl them out.
