It's just unbelievable how the situation changed in a span of few weeks. After the first two test matches, everyone had written off England. But now they are about to get their second consecutive win. Australia is almost done for the 4th test, as they are trailing by 162 runs with just 6 wickets in hand. Unless there is a miracle from the Oz tailend batsmen, it is going to be an innings win for England. And more importantly, going to the 5th test at the Oval, the Poms would be having a clear momentum with them. I have only one thing to say here - Pat Cummins has failed as a captain, and he need to be kicked out.
End of Day 03, Australia are 162 runs behind and they have only left with 6 wickets. Since there are two days left in the match (if there is no rain), no one can snatch the victory from the England team at Manchester. Some people especially Australian fans may argue that anything can happen in cricket and do not lose hope until the last wicket for the Australian had gone down, but i would say that match is in such an awkward situation for the Aussies that even the miracle won't even save them. I don't think anything can happen tor Australia from here. I do understand that Labuschagne is still there who can ofcourse change the course of the game but Australia still trail by 162 runs. England played excellent Bazball yesterday and today. Playing at a run rate of almost 6 they have made sure that they give Australia ample of time to bat. I think there's one sure advantage of Bazball is getting less draws.

It is a fairy story comeback by England after loosing the first two matches and with Australia still behind by 162 runs and 6 wickets in hand it is an impossible task to save this match as Steven Smith is already back in the pavilion and it is a matter time that England win the match and level the series which was not expected after seeing the first two matches.

Coward skipper and coach sent chadwin at number 8 only because they wanted to rob the poor lad. It was a sure shot ton for him if he batted up at the order. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) I don't know how they can send him at no.6 or no.7. That would mean sending Ashwin ahead of Ishan Kishan and Ravindra Jadeja. IMO, both of them are better batsmen compared to Ravichandran Ashwin. Anyway, Ashwin still managed to get a half century and his contribution with the bat during the last few months seems to be higher than top and middle order batsmen such as Ajinkya Rahane and Shubman Gill. BTW, I don't understand the idea of including Jaydev Unadkat in the playing XI for this test as well. Why not T Natarajan or Akash Madhwal? Arey, it was a joke, there would be no chance of him batting up at the order. I was just taking a piss. Rahane is on notice period IMO, might get dropped for home season. I am not sure if the likes of Nattu are in the test scheme of things. His debut in Australia was just an accident, that's it. Ash Anna not giving any runs but he's bowling badly if we go with his reputation.

Even the first two test matches were supposed to be winning match for England, small mistakes done while declaring the match costed England to lose the first match. In the second match the tiresome effort of Ben Stokes scoring 155 runs brought the match close to winning situation and finally lost the match by 43 runs. With the ongoing test match winning, the series gets levelled. This makes the Ashes Series 5 th test match more interesting.

West Indies vs India, 2nd Test Day 2: Stumps West Indies trail by 438 runs. India batted in the 1st innings and collected a huge score losing all their wickets. Currently West Indies are trying to meet the target given by India and they have already lost 1 wicket. Although West Indies are under a bit of pressure due to the rapid fall of wickets, the runs are likely to increase if the 2 batsmen currently at the crease can hold on to the game. If Kirk McKenzie and Kraigg Brathwaite can continue to monitor the game well, West Indies can reach the target set by India. West Indies have collected 86 runs for the loss of 1 wicket so far and they still need to reach the huge margin of 352 runs.

In this match West Indies team have made better plans and getting it done. Good start from the West Indies and if they continue the same performance they'll be able to reach the score of India. Braithwaite is playing responsible, and now McKenzie have come to the crease. For India once again the spinner Ashwin have taken the wicket and the dominance of spinners can be expected in this match too.

A lot of people are knocking on the door for the no.4 position, but Kohli and the selectors want no one other than Rahane for that position. Hopefully the selectors would drop him for good after this series. He need to concentrate on domestic cricket for some time, if he wants to make a comeback.

England's Bazball approach is actually working though it isn't the most effective approach out there. They played some tests in recent times notching up some impressive average run-rates against teams like Pakistan, Ireland and Australia. Also, Steve Smith might lose his position at the top of the most active centuries leaderboard pretty soon. https://twitter.com/ESPNcricinfo/status/1682628648711651330

England's victory in the fourth Test seems certain. This will bring back a 2-2 tie in the series. The 5th Test is expected to be thrilling if England wins the 4th Test. Enjoyed some great batting from England in the 4th Test but it was a shame Bairstow didn't get a century for 1 run he was unbeaten on 99 runs. Australia have already lost 4 wickets for 113 runs while England lead by 275 runs. With 162 more runs for Australia to set England a target which looks tough for Australia. Smith,Warner,Khawaja failed again. Mitchell Marsh and Labuschagne at the crease. Just as England is showing skill in batting,it is also showing in bowling. This match is heading towards England's victory. Now it's a matter of how long the Australian batsmen can face the England bowlers.

The question that is coming in everyone mind is that whether Australians can avoid an innings defeat or not. With 6 wickets in hand and trailing by 162 runs it looks evident that Australians will suffer from in innings defeat this time and if that happens then England will be favourite for the last game also. Cummins stats as captain are not bad. As Captain he has played 12 test, 7 wins and only 2 loses. Give him some more time to prove whether he is worthy for this job or not.

It seems the Aussies won't be able to avoid the innings defeat. They have six wickets in hand, but it's not enough at this point. Chris Woakes took five wickets in the first innings and Australian batters were helpless against England bowlers. It looks the same as the first innings now. Mark Wood already take three wickets. The pitch is pace-friendly and England using their fast bowlers to attract Aussie batters. The only spinner they used is Moeen Ali, and his economy is over 4.5 at this moment while pacers economy is below three on average. Waiting for day four to start.

This match is heading towards England's victory. Now it's a matter of how long the Australian batsmen can face the England bowlers.
Australia lost four wickets in their second innings for 113 runs. So far, Australia is 162 runs behind England. The way Australia batted in their second innings and the way the England bowlers bowled, Australia might not be able to bat for 40 overs on the fourth day before they are all out. A lot of pressure for Australia, who are behind by 162 runs, I don't know how they will handle such a big pressure where they have already lost four wickets to collect 113 runs. If 100 runs is the target for England, Australia still need to collect 262 runs. England still have a chance to beat Australia by an innings margin as if they bowl Australia out before 162 runs, they can beat Australia by an innings in the fourth Test.

Ashwin is probably one of the best batter at 7-8 number but batting in the top 5 is not an easy task IMO, doesn't matter even if lower order batters look good in comparison to the top 5. Number 6 also suits him but Pant was there for some time. Rahane did play the last Ranji season and made some runs but he got selected because Iyer was injured so my guess is Iyer (if he's fit) or Sarfraz will replace Rahane soon, maybe in the home series.

Looks like the fourth day is going to be a wash out in the Ashes. It’s raining heavily, doesn’t look like we will get much, if any play today. England need 6 wickets with two days to get them. Hopefully the weather clears up and they can level the series tomorrow.

West Indies vs India, 2nd Test Day 2: Stumps West Indies trail by 438 runs. India batted in the 1st innings and collected a huge score losing all their wickets. Currently West Indies are trying to meet the target given by India and they have already lost 1 wicket. Although West Indies are under a bit of pressure due to the rapid fall of wickets, the runs are likely to increase if the 2 batsmen currently at the crease can hold on to the game. If Kirk McKenzie and Kraigg Brathwaite can continue to monitor the game well, West Indies can reach the target set by India. West Indies have collected 86 runs for the loss of 1 wicket so far and they still need to reach the huge margin of 352 runs.
West Indies got a good start as they lost only one wicket on day 2. West Indies are still 352 runs behind and it wont be easy to score 350 runs against Ashwin and Jadeja. The struggling Kohli has scored a test hundred which means his spot in Test squad is confirmed once again. West Indies lost first test miserably and there is not much hope for second test also.

West Indies started very well. But I don't think he will be able to collect 438 runs. West Indies squad has talented players. But they are not experienced enough in ODI and Test format. The team could not even qualify for the upcoming ODI World Cup. In the last test match too we saw poor performance from West Indies players. However, West Indies collected 86 runs for the loss of 1 wicket. The team is still behind by 352 runs. I think this is a big difference. I also don't think West Indies batsmen can maintain consistency.

Looks like the fourth day is going to be a wash out in the Ashes. It’s raining heavily, doesn’t look like we will get much, if any play today. England need 6 wickets with two days to get them. Hopefully the weather clears up and they can level the series tomorrow.
The rain delay can be a blessing in disguise for Australia. The way things are going right now Australia is in big trouble. They have already lost four wickets. Australia is still trailing by 162. With six wickets in hand, it does not seem like Australia will be able to do a whole lot to give England a good target. It is going to be great for Australia if the fourth day absolutely washes out. Because if that happens, Australia can start playing on the fifth day and just play out the whole day. The equation is simple. If Australia has to play in the fourth day, they will be in trouble. On the hand England would hope that the rain stops and they can resume playing. They currently have the upper hand in this test match. Winning it would give them a genuine chance of winning the Ashes series. However if this match ends in a draw Englands best outcome would be to draw the series.

West Indies only one wicket lost and behind India by 352 runs after the second day of play wi situation is difficult to win this test natch. Tagenarine Chanderpaul was defeated by Jadeja After scoring 33 runs. Despite the pressure Kraigg Brathwaite maintains his composure and is still in the game at 33 not out. Kirk McKenzie is also holding his ground at 15 not out. West Indies may yet have a chance to reach India big total if these two batsmen can maintain their vigilance in this closely balanced match. After 41 overs there are 84 runs on the board wi struggle for the win could be interesting. Lets what happens at day 3.

Looks like the fourth day is going to be a wash out in the Ashes. It’s raining heavily, doesn’t look like we will get much, if any play today. England need 6 wickets with two days to get them. Hopefully the weather clears up and they can level the series tomorrow.
The rain delay can be a blessing in disguise for Australia. The way things are going right now Australia is in big trouble. They have already lost four wickets. Australia is still trailing by 162. With six wickets in hand, it does not seem like Australia will be able to do a whole lot to give England a good target. It is going to be great for Australia if the fourth day absolutely washes out. Because if that happens, Australia can start playing on the fifth day and just play out the whole day. The equation is simple. If Australia has to play in the fourth day, they will be in trouble. On the hand England would hope that the rain stops and they can resume playing. They currently have the upper hand in this test match. Winning it would give them a genuine chance of winning the Ashes series. However if this match ends in a draw Englands best outcome would be to draw the series. It looks like an unlucky day for England team. Already its time for the second session of the day. If this continues, the day will end up without play. Today the entire match result could've come as Australia have already lost 4 wickets scoring 113 runs. If the match have started on-time, by now Australia could've lost few more wickets. England have good score and the weather change might be favourable to take quick wickets. Anyhow none were able to make changes against the nature, so the choice for England is only to accept and do the best if nature permits.

Would be disappointing if the 4th test ends as a draw as it means AUS would retain the Ashes regardless of what happens in the 5th test. I don’t think even AUS would like to be victorious thanks to the weather. As it stands ENG need 6 wickets. Hopefully they get at least the full day tomorrow to do that. Would be good to get a few overs today if weather permits but it’s not looking good at the moment.
