Meanwhile in the fourth Ashes Cricket test match, England is at the better position by the end of day 2 with the lead of 67 runs and 6 wickets in hand. Opener Crawley have scored 189 runs from 182 balls which is really impressive. Stokes and Brook on the crease can expect another 100-150 runs for sure.

Surprising fightback from England actually. After watching their performance during the first two matches, I was thinking that Australia may whitewash the series 5-0. But the addition of Mark Wood and Chris Woakes changed everything. Despite the fact that their premier pace bowler (James Anderson) is out of form, England has managed to restrict Australia to a small total (317). They are at 384/4 now, and with Ben Stokes and Harry Brook at the crease, they should be able to get a first innings lead of at least 200-250 runs.

After the first session, Windies kept things tight nicely, possibly their first 14 tight overs in this series. They picked up 3 quick wickets and now they have some chance to pick up a couple more too.
Kohli and Rahane would make perfect prize wickets in this situation. Personally, i am waiting for Chadwin. Madlad becomes a beast when he bats against the Windies, hope he gets a promotion although chances are slim because of Ishan.

India lost their fourth wicket for 182 runs. After losing the first wicket for 139 runs, India lost 4 valuable wickets to collect only 43 runs. It was not expected that India's top order and middle order would play so badly after the two openers got off to such a good start. Shubman Gill and Rahane scored 10 and 8 runs respectively. Kohli remains unbeaten on 18 off 44 balls. There are experienced batsmen like Kohli, Jadeja, Ishan Kishan and Aswin. So India still has scope to collect. Let's see how much India can collect in the first innings. But collecting less than 300 they will face a big problem.

India is at good position. I don't expect India to perform big against these teams. In the first match it was a very big win. In this match West Indies should've corrected themselves and well prepared. Everyone have scored good and expected a century from Jaiswal, and this time it didn't happened. Lets see how the match gets started in the third day.

India went into bat on the first day scoring 288 runs with the loss of 4 wickets. In the match, Yashasvi Jaiswal and Rohit Sharma failed to reach their target of century as both got out after scoring half-centuries. Rohit Sharma scored 80 off 143 balls and was later dismissed short of his century. But Ravindra Jadeja and Virat Kohli have scored good runs from the crease and they both form a good pair. Of course Virat Kohli will score a century in the match if he can perform well, at the moment he has collected 87 runs from 161 balls which is on the way to a century. However, if West Indies can improve their batting performance in today's match, they can definitely collect a good score.

England are looking confident to take the game against Australian, while it was Australia threw away the opportunity. Now the game took a surprising turn, leaving Australia feeling quite disappointed. It looks that that England will be leveled it 2-2. At the end of the day two, Zak Crawley's remarkable 189 runs innings helped England a 67 runs lead. England is expected to build on this advantage on Friday and get at least 250 runs lead.

The 4th Test is very important for England because if England is able to give a large lead in the 1st innings in this Test, it will become very uncertain for Australia. England has already managed to take a lead of 67 runs.
If England can play the first two sessions of the third day and manage to take a lead of 200+ runs, it will be difficult for Australia to bat in the 2nd innings for two consecutive days.

Well... I don't know what Australia could have done. In the end, England turned out to be the better team and the Australian bowlers looked helpless against the Bazball approach from England batsmen. I never thought that the absence of Nathan Lyon would be such a setback for the Australians. Younger spinners such as Todd Murphy and Matthew Kuhnemann are unable to fill the vacuum that was left by Lyon. England has the same issue, as they don't have a quality spinner. But then their pacers were able to fill the gap.

He was able to perform well in the last three matches. It is expected that he will be able to play well in the fourth match as well. However, if the lead is less than 200 runs, the match is also likely to be competitive. Because Australian players are also experienced enough.

Australia messed up big-time by not including a spinner like Todd Murphy in their lineup since Steve Waugh himself mentioned that this was a mistake because the ball does tend to turn in Manchester.

The only thing that can help the Australians now is the rain which seems very likely for the next couple of days.

England met the target set by Australia on their second day with a truly brilliant performance. Right now two great batsmen are trying to play the game to collect runs for the England team. Ben Stokes and Harry Brook if this pair can sustain them till the end then England can definitely give 200 runs lead. And if Australia can't give good bowling performance then England will collect more runs and may be under pressure for Australia next day. But if England can improve their batting performance today, they have enough wickets in hand to score a lot of runs.

The only thing that can help the Australians now is the rain which seems very likely for the next couple of days.

Rain can only help Australia for this Test, but that is only an unlikely future. However, if England's innings can deal well with the all-out, then if England can take a lead of 250 runs, Australia will definitely lose this match. There is no chance of a draw for Australia here. Australia were all out for 317 runs in the first innings. There is very little chance of a draw for them in the second innings.

80% humidity and 13°C in Manchester today with no chance of rain. Will Mitchell Starc and Pat Cummins fail to stop England's run?

England for the very first time in this ashes are favourite. On day 2 stumps England lead by 67 runs and they still have plenty of batting to come. Zak was unlucky to miss his double hundred otherwise it would be one of fastest double hundred of Test cricket. England must not relax as Aussies have record of coming back strongly. If England can get lead of 200 then surely they will be favourite but they still have a job to do n second innings.

This Test match is very important for England to win needed to level the series and England is on strong positive 384/4 runs. Z. Crawley Missed his well deserved double hundred byy just 11 runs short of impressive batting I like it very much. I also feel disappointed when I see Z. Crewely Bold by Cameron Green. But English is now looking for a big lead of 250 plus runs to create pressure for the Australia batter.
I think England will win this Test match if they succeed in giving a lead of 250 plus runs current lead is 67 runs 6 wickets in hands and H. Brook is playing at 14 not out and Ben Stokes are on 24 not out this batting pair is potential to score runs fast and give a big lead.

At the beginning of the third day, England's two batsmen Stokes and Brook are batting very responsibly. And if the partnership between these two batsmen is long, it is very risky for Australia. These two batsmen are very experienced. And they are capable of playing big innings. England's team managed to collect 410 runs. The team managed to take a lead of 93 runs. Ben Stokes scored 44 runs unbeaten. And Harry Brooke scored 20 runs unbeaten. If Australia wants to survive in this match, the Australian bowlers must take these two wickets very quickly

England need win in the 4th Test. 5 match series Australia won 2 matches and England won only one match. Currently 4th match is going on and England team is performing well in the field. If England wins this match then both team will have to wait till the last match for the result. The England team is already leading by 136 runs and they are also in a good position on the wicket. England team will be ahead in this match. Good performances from Zak Crawley, Joe Root and Harry Brook helped the team to big score. Harry Brooke is still on the field. Better things can be expected from his brilliant batting in this match.

[JSRAW]

100-150 more runs from here then it's safe to say England won't bat much in the 4th inning or maybe an inning win?

This is turning out to be real bullying now, virtually no respect for handsome Cummins & co. It was bound to happen in a long series, that's why 5 test match series become really important.

Yes today England performed very well and collected a great score. England has a chance to go into today's match, I think if they perform well, they will definitely win the match. At the moment England is leading by 155 runs and will collect more runs if they play at the end.Harry Brook is still batting great, if he can stay at the crease for more time then it is possible to increase England's runs. England though still lost 5 wickets and they still have enough wickets in hand. So in the end if they can play the game they will collect a good run and maybe give a good lead for Australia.

England is slowly moving towards a lead of 200 runs. England has now collected 506 runs after losing 7 wickets. And they managed to take a lead of 189 runs. Despite losing 7 wickets, experienced batsmen like Jonny Bairstow are now at the crease. He is unbeaten with 41 runs off 39 balls. England's batting looks like the team will give a lead of at least 230. Australia mustered only 317 runs in their first innings. Now, if England can take a lead of 230, Australia's batsmen will be under a lot of pressure in the second innings. England has more chances to win this match. The series is likely to be tied 2-2.

4th Test match of England vs Australia Test series. Australia batted first and were all out for 317 runs. England have batted brilliantly in this Test, so far scoring 506 runs for 8 wickets. So far England have given a lead of 189 runs. Zak Crawley batted brilliantly scoring 189 off 182 balls just missing out on a double century by 11 runs. England have 2 more wickets in hand and I don't think they can score more than 650 runs. If England can score more than 600 runs England will have more chances to win.

The match is being delayed due to rain. And I'd say it's very good for Australia. If there is no play on the third day due to rain, it may be possible for Australia to draw the match. England's team has already taken a huge lead of 191 runs. England collected 508 runs by losing 8 wickets. Jonny Bairstow remains unbeaten with 42 runs. So probably England team will be able to collect 30-40 more runs. If the match is delayed due to rain, the Australian batsmen will be able to draw the match only if they bat responsibly. But we are not sure if we will see a better performance from the Australian batsmen in the second innings.
