And just like that...he was gone.

Well I'm surprised actually. Both are good moves going into the future but I didn't expect CA to be so quick.

Bring on Tomorrow.

Steve Smith, you are a star. So glad he got to cap his most spectacular year with a ton at Lords. As I type he's on 103 and Rogers is on 98, hopefully about to get there himself.

Well done Sir, you are a champion.

2 big tons. Can't see any team getting twenty wickets in this pitch. Welp

A good day for Australian cricket but a bad day for Test cricket. This pitch is awful.

4 drawn tests would do it for England.

Yeah, that's what they'll be playing for now.

You guys have no faith. A classic era English collapse is on it's way.

And I shit you not, just as I hit submit on that post Starc has picked up Lyth and England are 1 for donut.

4 for 30 mother fuckers.

The dream is still alive.

lol 1 for donut

Now this is interesting. I crashed just after Smith got his 200.

Holy shit this is bad. Johnson on a tear. This could all be over today at this rate.

I'm just going to quote this for posterity.

I posted that with Lyth and Cook at the crease, ready to face the first ball of England's 1st innings.

I dare say this surpassed even the finest vintage of England collapses over the last 30 years.

Yeah, that was pretty spectacular. Still not actually quite sure what happened.

The Aussie bowlers were good, but it's not like the ball was moving about that much. Although I wouldn't have enjoyed facing Johnson today. The ball he got Ali with was killer.

3rd Test will be interesting. I hope England come to play.

What a collapse. I crashed at lunch, was woken by my daughter at tea and holy hell they were all out before I'd settled her.

I hope this series isn't decided by the coin toss. Edgbaston can't come soon enough. Love ashes cricket.

Balance and Lyth are in trouble. But all articles are saying there aren't too many other options for the top order.

4-1 Australia

I hope Rogers is okay.
