At least I will have a few more hours sleep tonight. I am resigned to England's fate.

I'm trying to temper my optimism with the reality that it is actually far more likely that we will lose a wicket before the new ball is taken, then be bowled out before tea and end up leaving Australia a token target of about 60 which they'll take the extra half hour to knock off at the end of day four.

I refuse to do an all nighter purely because two batsmen are showing some guts when it's been sorely missing for the rest of the match.

Tea!!!??

BT - no feed for quite a while now. I always stay up for the most depressing sessions.

TMS might be a better option. In bed.

Extremely optimistic.

Yup, over to TMS. Catching up on some work at the same time. Bliss.

It's not their fault - apparently the generator for the Fox Sports camera trucks at the ground has broken and they've no backup...

How can you not have back-up for a highly anticipated international sporting event where you’ve sold on TV rights to global networks. I mean, what does that cost?

This is a landmark sporting event. Historic. That we can't show it is more than embarrassing.

I blame the ECB, BT Sport, Sky, probably the BBC and all the sorry twats involved. An omnishambles.
