I think the chances of a draw in this match are not low yet. The Australian team is experienced. So they declared their innings before the end of the fourth day. The good news for England is that they did not lose a wicket on the fourth day. They will have 10 wickets on the fifth day. England do not expect to win by batting for 388 runs. Their goal is to draw.
If you want to draw the match, Root, Stokes and Bairstow must play a role. If these three players can play well then England can expect to win. Because no other player of the team is in the form now. The match will be a draw even if the two openers play the first full session, but it is almost impossible for them.

Australia chances are bright as England need 358 more runs to win. Seeing the bowling performance of Australia in recent tests I am very much sure they will bowl out England tomorrow. As far as England is concerned they will try to draw the game. Let's see who succeed in achieving his aims.

Day back the match was predicted to draw, and today the winning chance of Australia have increased to 50% and the chance of draw has come down to 45% This series is full of missing chances for England. The team completely depends on few players and this is not enough to play against a team like Australia. If rain intervention happens there is possible chance for a draw as well.

Anything over 300 runs and they should declare because England will not be able to chance them and they are terrible at defense Cheesy.

Even 300 is not needed. First innings lead is 122 runs. I guess Australia can declare after their total lead gets to around 370-380 (i.e a second innings total of ~250). And from what I can see, both Steve Smith and Marnus Labuschagne are trying to step up the scoring rate. But the England captain on the other side is sticking with James Anderson, and this is making it really difficult for the Australian batsmen to score quick runs. If the rain gods decide against intervention, by tomorrow we can expect Australia to take a lead of 4-0.

^^  I am also not expecting any heroic effort from this England side as their batting struggled throughout this series and Jonny Bairstow was able to score a century but he is not that consistent with his performance. Ben Stokes got lucky as always, he would have dismissed earlier when a ball hit the stumps but the bails did not move an inch.

Bairstow just got out as I was typing this post. Boland is on fire. Australia still has a decent chance to win this one. This match just became a bit more interesting.
If not for the innings of Jonny Bairstow and Ben Stokes they would have conceded yet another huge defeat in this match, now it all depends upon how the England bowlers are going to bowl. I am not expecting any miracles, i hope Australia will score some quick runs as they already have 122 runs lead and if they play three sessions and then put England back to bat, i am sure they will not survive till the final session of the last day Cheesy.

Bairstow is the lone warrior for England currently. Few others like Stokes etc good starts, but couldn't convert them into big scores. I cannot imagine the pressure that Bairstow is under because he knows that their innings is over once he gets out.

He is basically trying to waste as many balls as possible in order to force a draw which is the most likely outcome at this point.

Edit: Bairstow just got out as I was typing this post. Boland is on fire. Australia still has a decent chance to win this one. This match just became a bit more interesting.

This is Team England. Those who scored 36 runs lost 4 wickets. Now their collection is 135. The funny thing is that Joe Root returned to the dressing room with zero runs. He could not add any run to the team's scoreboard. After a long time we saw such an innings from Root.
Ben Stokes and Jonny Bairstow are playing very well. Stokes are unbeaten on 52 and Bairstow on 25. Runs will continue to be added to England's scoreboard as long as their innings and partnership last. When they are both out. My prediction is that all other players will not be able to collect more than 70-80 runs.
Thanks to Jonny Bairstow and Ben Stokes innings England manage to cross 200 with still 4 wickets in hand. They avoid follow on because of these two innings. How many times Root has to score alone? He is a player and can get out on zero. I dont know why Zak Crawley and Haseeb are selected as opener for such a big contest.

England now collects 258, losing 7 wickets. Bairstow has scored 103 runs and is not out yet. Stokes was out for 67 runs. I think, England's innings will end tomorrow morning. England will lose all the wickets in the first session. I doubt if England will be able to stay in the crease for 10 overs after Bairstow is out. However, 3 days have passed. England are expected to draw this match.

Another match getting wasted by the English team. If they could have batted on the fourth day then the situation would have been different. They have already lost 8 wickets and the first session has not yet ended. Australia will win this match too without any doubt. There is no more scope to draw this match.

But Ben Stokes got out, Jonny Bairstow is still smashing runs with strike rate more than 74 and Mark Wood on the other end batting at strike rate of 102. Bairstow may hit a century today. England's trail is depleting now for less than 180 runs. The last hour is usually known for more runs hence I expect another 50 runs from 14 runs.


England recovered very well and credit for this recovery goes to Jonny Bairstow and Ben. Jonny Bairstow is still on the crease with 103 runs. England tail saved England from yet another humiliation. Mark Wood scored 39 runs on just 41 balls. If england manage to score 300 runs then we have a chance of draw though Aus will try to win the game.
Australia will give the best to win the match. There is more chance for a draw than win by any of the teams. As like the first innings England needs to perform good, or else this is going to be a losing match as the previous one. Because, in the previous match England ended the second innings very badly losing entire wickets for 68 runs. I expect some steady and consistent game, even now few players have been keeping the match alive than going one sided.

In recent times, Haseeb Hameed is consistently opening for England regardless of no big hitting but Zak Crawley is a replacement for Rory Burns but he is also struggling to provide a good start for the visitors.

The spat between Ganguly and Kohli seems to have played a part in the defeat. His replacement (Hanuma Vihari) had a decent outing,
I'm starting to doubt your sources bhai, everything you're saying sounds like page 3 juicy stories.  Grin You are saying same thingy in other thread also (Vihari inclusion over Shreyas etc)


New year and new low for English team.

Last 10 overs. 0 runs and 3 wickets.


In the first week of 2022 we saw two upsets, Ban beating NZ and SA beating India but still England wasn't able to change there losing pattern. Surely they are going to lose this game and the next test march also. Australia is good side but Enand should have done something.

India messed up primarily thanks to most of their bowling unit. Shardul was the only decent performer among them. All eyes are on the final test and I hope it doesn't get screwed thanks to rain or other external factors.

The 4th test between Australia and England looks like it might end as a draw making an already boring Ashes even more boring. Disappointing!

The spat between Ganguly and Kohli seems to have played a part in the defeat. His replacement (Hanuma Vihari) had a decent outing, but the bowlers (especially Ashwin, Shami, Siraj and Bumrah) were not picking wickets at crucial intervals.

Now coming to the 4th Ashes test, there is still a chance that Australia may win. Almost three days remain, and England has lost two wickets and are trailing by 380 runs. If England is forced to follow on, then there is a good chance that Australia may win the test by an innings. I am watching Scott Boland bowling right now.. he's just unplayable.

Australia    vs    England

After day-2, Australia has collected 416 and declared their innings. The highest collection for the team was that of Usman Khawaja. He has scored 137 runs. Smith made 67 runs.
The performance of the England batsmen in the last two matches, I think 417 runs is too big for England. England can make a maximum of 300. However, at the end of the second day, England managed to score 13 runs without losing a wicket. They are only 403 runs behind. Grin

Although Australians are able to make 416 runs in their first innings but they have utilized full 2 days. Now they need to quickly bowl England out or preferably enforce a follow on.
If England are able to make 300+ runs in the first innings, then it's most likely that this test match will end in a draw. England managed to survive the last 5 overs of 2nd day and therefore so far it's good for England.

In my opinion, this match is heading towards a draw. I know England batter has not been performing well but they can easily stay on the pitch for the next two days. They should not chase this target as they will not be able to do so it is better to stay on the pitch and spend time.
This will also help them to avoid a complete whitewash.

Bangladesh does not have star players like Shakib, Tamim and Mahmudullah in this series. The Bangladesh Board has arranged a lot of young dependent teams. No one expected the young team to win against an experienced team like New Zealand. Everyone thought maybe Bangladesh will play better. But the results will be in New Zealand's favor.
However, Bangladesh will play another test match on the 9th. I hope they can draw this match. I would be happy if Bangladesh's players can maintain the continuity. It's hard to consistently play well and win against a team like New Zealand.
A great and historical win by Bangla tigers bring back some good things for them and their fans because after losing at home against Pakistan very badly no one were expecting any good news from these youngsters, but they have done one of most memorable win for their country, and now they deserve great applause from all cricket world because India never done this in long time with most equipped team in current cricket world, but they achieve this great win.

Now in second test they can go with good confidence because they have nothing to lose so this time they will try to win and have draw is also very great achievement for them with New Zealand surely under pressure with WTC and losing at home against Bangladesh with now losing series pressure is also can do something bad impact on them hopefully they will be good enough to handle this all.
