The omens are not good for his side, though, with England holding the upper hand in matches between the old adversaries at The Oval.

England have won 15 of the 33 Tests between the teams, with Australia recording just six wins.


Damn, I wish I were there ....

No play in the final session due to bad light/rain. Australian openers made a good start but what a strange decision to go off for light when you're still 260 runs behind (in a match you need to win).

Could be the same story tomorrow with heavy rain forecast for 3pm-ish.
