His hands are too low, and he pushed out at that one instead of letting it come.

Carrying a big argument there spook, you sure it's safe to put the boot into Warnie like that ????
If Starkers is injured n can't bowl then were without our 1 2 3 strike bowlers n using Nessie, Green n Jhye who have about ten tests worth of experience between them as well as Gary. Obviously we'd want as many runs as possible in the bank in case a few Poms get on a roll with over 4 sessions of play available to them.
Should still be able to winkle them out for around 300 the way they've been batting, but there's no way we'd want to give them half a sniff at squaring the series.
The highest successful chase at the Adelaide Oval is 315. With the current target, England would need to score at nearly 4 an over. The chance of England winning is zero, but without the first choice bowlers and if Starc is iffie, I'd have thought Australia should have wanted as much time as possible rather than an extra 20-30 runs.
Will likely win regardless but seemed strange to keep batting away IMO. Increased the risk of a draw, what if some more storms had come through this evening and killed a couple of hours of play etc.
Wish Lyon would try a straight or 'arm' ball occasionally. Seems to be more threatening, with better line & length to left handers.
Root seems to have less time v Green compared to other bowlers. Green generating sustained pace. Good opportunity for him to showcase his talent in an inexperienced (test wise) bowling group.
Greens going to be a very good player, a similar type to Stokes IMO. Stokes started in a similar way, better with the ball initially, but Green's batting will come on well IMO. Has all the talent to be the best all rounder in the world.
Should make them sit down and listen to Marnus for a couple of hours. Would do more psychological damage than an Adelaide Crows training camp.
Yes, Green reminds of Glen McGrath a bit. Not saying he is anywhere as good, but with his height he gets that extra bit of bounce off a good length ball.
Lyon does not operate well on spinning pitches when everything is in his favour. He bowls too straight. He should be cleaning up ala the way ashwin does on a spinning wicket. He obviously doesn’t listen to advice. A bit frustrating to watch. Queue 3 quick Lyon wickets
Smith won't bowl himself but wouldn't hurt to have Marnus roll his arm over in the closing stages of the day
