Badger Jan 2016 2:30pm, 4 Jan 2016 6,522 posts	Quote Pin Badger TRO is clearly imagining a nightmare scenario where they score 659, have us 27 for 8, finally bowl us out for 125 and win with two sessions to spare.
Ceratonia Jan 2016 2:55pm, 4 Jan 2016 2,899 posts	Quote Pin Ceratonia Even Adelaide 2006 wasn't that bad (we declared on 550 odd and started the final day ~100 ahead with only one wicket down, if I recall correctly.) Believe I'm correct in saying that no-one has ever lost a game of cricket having scored over 600 in the opening innings. Those dropped catches might turn the game into a draw, but I'd say an England win was still the most likely outcome.
