Ceratonia Jul 2015 12:39pm, 17 Jul 2015 2,376 posts	0 Ceratonia England slightly ahead on this session - only 60 runs added so far, 2 wickets lost. Pushes the Aussie declaration back until 5 o'clock, perhaps?

Wriggling Snake Jul 2015 1:52pm, 17 Jul 2015 9,848 posts	0 Wriggling Snake TMS are saying the pitch is getting quicker, the cloud cover tues/wed slowed up the preparation, so it will be at it's fastest after tea today, just in time for Johnson.....
Ceratonia Jul 2015 2:46pm, 17 Jul 2015 2,377 posts	0 Ceratonia Aussies upped the runrate significantly since lunch, nearly 5 an over. Probably some way short of 600 by tea. Clarke might not be too about nice round numbers though.
fraggle Jul 2015 2:51pm, 17 Jul 2015 530 posts	0 fraggle declaration later today just as the pitch is turning, and we'll be all out for 200ish by lunch tomorrow ?
flanker Jul 2015 2:52pm, 17 Jul 2015 15,990 posts	0 flanker or... bat on for 600+ now as the pitch is worsening, then put England in twice on a moving, turning wicket when the weather is mean to be more overcast?
Ceratonia Jul 2015 3:39pm, 17 Jul 2015 2,378 posts	0 Ceratonia Or, declare at tea at 560, England's aggressive batting on a flat wicket lets them declare at the end of day 3 only 50 behind. Another Aussie batting collapse on Sunday and England seal an easy win on Monday afternoon
