Light fades on Oval party

It was a celebration of England. A celebration for Test cricket. It was loud. It was fun. It was nonsensical.

Australia's era of decline

Fundamental issues remain with how the game is run in Australia, although the country's sporting problems are not restricted to cricket

Australia celebrate Shane Watson Day

Shane Watson has appeared in several guises as an Australia player - they need him to stick with this one

Australia's roadrunner out of reach

Australia have got close to England a few times in the series only to be unable to quite catch them and when they have let chances slip they have done so in style

English ascendency not going to plan

Their top three are having the kind of series that usually sees England lose - and yet they are winning

Rogers waits no more

The 19 balls that Chris Rogers spent on 96 felt almost as long as the 35 years and 344 days he had to wait to become a Test centurion

Please, Australia, stop searching for the saviour

Nathan Lyon is not the saviour of Australia cricket but he is a very solid offspinner who should not have been dropped. It is time to stop searching for something that doesn't exist and trust what does

Still reasons for Clarke to smile

Australia were always going to lose this Ashes. A victory in this Test wouldn't change that. But just by winning this Test they could have proved something to themselves

Australia still don't make much sense

If the rain holds off Australia could still win this Test and keep the Ashes alive, but a lot of their decisions continue to suggest confused thinking

Nathan, meet Kevin

Nathan Lyon stayed relatively cool in the face of a typical Kevin Pietersen assault but it led to his removal from the attack

An imperfect perfect innings from Clarke

Australia have never needed Clarke's runs more than they did today. He made them by any means necessary. Not on a pedestal, but down in the mud.

'Australia are playing the hand they wish they were dealt'

Do Darren Lehmann and his team think there's genius among them? George Dobell and Jarrod Kimber get cosy at Old Trafford discussing the Ashes

While England plan, Australia dream

England can be pragmatic robots but they have found a way to win; Australia are left holding out for miracles and heroes

Aussies struggle to provide value for money

For great sums, Australian cricket fans can follow the Ashes, meet the coach and offer suggestions. The best idea at the moment could be a refund request

The worst dismissal in history?

Plays of the day from the second day of the second Ashes Test at Lord's

Watson's a myth as he never learns

Shane Watson's innings was so predictable as to be sad; flattering to deceive then an lbw that was nothing but out yet he still reviewed it

Bell and the art of making perfection pay

Ian Bell has always had a textbook technique but now he is turning aesthetic perfection into Ashes hundreds

'Broad and Finn should carry Anderson around in a sedan chair'

The latest controversy involving Mickey Arthur to hit Australia, England's bowling, Australia's line-up, walking, and more: Mark Butcher and Jarrod Kimber get talking

It was Jimmy who done it

Forget edges, infrared technology, and umpiring errors, James Anderson won this Test

An English plan made in Australia

Something that David Saker had seen in Chris Rogers' batting led to a wicket and an on-pitch tribute from England's leading bowler
