Day 4’s rain has left the Ashes on a knife’s edge, with Australia hoping for more to secure a great escape against England – and retain the urn. Join The Roar for live scores from 8pm (AEST).
With just 30 overs bowled on the fourth day, a fighting century from Marnus Labuschagne and a rearguard from Mitchell Marsh leaves the Aussies with five wickets remaining in their second innings.
More rain is expected on Day 5, but if some amount of play is available, the Aussies will first be hoping to survive as long as possible, while also looking to take a lead, however slender, to delay things further.

As a one off. Warner is a waste. We’re playing with 10. And pick 4 bowlers.

The weather has helped England all series. This is a big one back.

Did I hear correctly that they were going to build two Olympic pools in Geelong and dismantle them post games?

Antedeluvian for those playing at home

Hey Fun Bus, haven't seen you around as much this series. Nice to know you haven't forgotten us and let loose with a spray. Here's hoping the weather for the Oval match will be OK.
Choppy Zezers

Does Ali, who doesnt actually spin it, count as a spinner?
Choppy Zezers
Roar Rookie
They have named it De Feet and its a something they are truly great at
Panthers
Roar Rookie
Evidently Hazlewood was continually called an F’ing Pr*** at very regular intervals, by the fun crowd section. For bowling?
Opeo
Roar Rookie
I agree. I am referring to the many comments that say that England not declaring earlier could have cost them the Ashes.
Rusty Brooks
Roar Rookie
“A silly declaration and glacial over rates come home to roost.” — That pretty much sums things up for me. Australia have been justly criticised for some of their poor tactics, but England’s have cost them their chance to win the Ashes.
Panthers
Roar Rookie
Viv Richards never believed in declaring as West Indies captain. When the Windies were bowling every team out for about 90.
Pierro
Roar Rookie
Two great test wins by aus via 4 tosses lost . given Australia has a handicap with warner playing and Lyon going missing very happy to retain on foreign soil .. hopefully they can go against the grain win the final toss and win the series although one wonders of starc will be right for it .
Derek Murray
Roar Rookie
Murphy in for Hoff. If Starc is good to go.
Rowdy
