Poms fight back - then, CER-ASH.
Dawid Malan and Joe Root added 138 for the 3rd. wicket, in the second Ashes Test, at the Adelaide Oval. Then the Aussies roared back, with 7/71, to bring the follow-on possibility into view.
England 9/221. Malan 80, Root 62, Mitch Starc 3/36, Nathan Lyon 3/56.

The Poms walked out, looking like a beaten side.
Tests HAVE been won from seemingly impossible positions.
Perhaps, they need a cricket historian in their army of minders.

I'd like to see Harris get a score.

Me too.
From 1946 to '66, I was a Victorian. Still a Vic., at heart, after all this time.

Looked like Warners' call. Harris responded. Warner took off, late. Costly.
1/41. Harris 21*.
Neser in as nightwatchman.

Stumps. 1/45. Harris 21*. Neser 2*.
Warne: "Burnsy looks happy. Probably because he's not batting"
The lead is 282.

Notably, 4 of England's "top" 7 (and 6 of their 10 wickets) were dismissed without reaching double figures.
