Huge appeal. DRS on for Warner caught behind.
Broad back in. Warner rocks back to crack one for four.
Swann bowls two widish deliveries which Warner latches on to only to find the fielder. Warner needs those to find the ropes for Australia. Remember a draw is no use to the Aussies and it is all England need to retain the Ashes.

Post lunch
Australia dismissed England for 368 on the fourth morning of the third test at Old Trafford on Sunday to take a first-innings lead of 159 in a match they must win to have any hope of regaining the Ashes.
At lunch, Australia were 24 for one in their second innings, an overall lead of 183, with five sessions remaining. England lead 2-0 in the five-match series.
After England had resumed on 294 for seven, Stuart Broad ensured the home side avoided the follow-on by taking three boundaries off a Ryan Harris over.
The last four, crashed through extra-over with a full swing of the bat, also brought up the 50 partnership with Matt Prior.
Broad fell shortly afterwards, caught behind for 32 off an outside edge to give off-spinner Nathan Lyon his only wicket of the innings.
Prior was dropped at mid-wicket by Steve Smith on 18 off Lyon and Graeme Swann (11) struck a straight six off the same bowler before he gave wicketkeeper Brad Haddin his fifth catch of the innings with an inside edge from the bowling of Peter Siddle.
Prior (30) was the last wicket to fall, caught by David Warner to present Siddle with his fourth wicket.
Australia, needing quick runs to give themselves time to bowl out England for a second time, promoted Warner from number six to opener to partner fellow left-hander Chris Rogers.
The pair put on 23 before Rogers was caught behind for 12 by Prior tumbling to his left off Broad five minutes before the break.
Lunch, Day 4, Test 3, Australia lead by 183

Aussies running hard.
Anderson goes for 4 in the meantime.
G-Nev quickly puts the boot into Hussain's team Arsenal. Nasser reminds us of the score, as Neville tells him the Gunners have no hope of getting Luis Suarez.

Warner off the mark with a punch of his hips for 2. Yeah, a punch. Warner punches. Ask Joe Root.

60 overs left today and 90 overs tomorrow if it does not rain. Yes, Test on a knife-edge.
Holding does the trick. Though its Siddle that gets the wicket. David Warner rushes off the field suggesting he might open as the Aussies have it all to do with the bat to get as much time as they can with the ball to bowl England out. Prior last wicket to go. Anderson last man standing.
Michael Holding on now. In the commentary that is.

Prior refuses to take a run to keep strike as the Old Traffird crowd groans aloud.
Nasser Hussain says we should expect Prior to explode now with the last-man in. Prior does nothing for five balls of Lyon and then a single.

Broad edges one through slip and gully for four. Runs coming thick and fast for England. Geoff Boycott prefers to call that a "controlled outside edge."
Ryan Harris to continue.
Prior - 15; Broad - 18.
Broad takes a huge stride forward to drive Lyon for 4 off the first ball. Lyon gets one to spin and bounce wickedly. Plenty of rough to exploit. Broad then pads one that draws a fierce stare from Lyon. More spin more extras - leg byes.

Michael Clarke & Co must prove they can go for the kill.
Australia's cricket writers on Sunday, meanwhile, hailed old nemesis Kevin Pietersen's fighting century in the third Test, saying the knock had tempered the tourist's hopes of a dramatic Ashes comeback.
Pietersen's first hundred of this Ashes series and his 23rd overall in Tests helped put England within sight of avoiding the follow-on at Manchester's Old Trafford on Saturday.
At the close of the third day, England were 294 for seven -- still 233 runs behind -- after Pietersen had made 113.
"Painful memories of 2005 resurfaced at Old Trafford today as Kevin Pietersen yet again interposed himself between Australia and a desperate Ashes revival," The Australian's Wayne Smith wrote.
Australia is down 2-0 in the series but the third Test began well for the tourists who declared at 527 and sent in England to bat.
"The wickets came, but in a slow drip feed. Never could the Australians get a run-on and the reason was Pietersen," wrote Smith.
Fairfax Media's Malcolm Knox said Pietersen chose his moments to excel for England well.
"It wasn't his best - his 186 last November in Mumbai stands as one of the greatest innings of modern times - but, as is his knack, his contribution was critical in determining the ultimate result of this contest. He does choose his moments well," Knox said.
The Australian's cricket columnist Gideon Haigh said of Pietersen: "Can anyone conceivably think other than that Pietersen is second only to James Anderson in Ashes irreplaceability? Not after today they can't.
"Yes, there is so much to irritate about him -- the prodigality, the histrionics, the warhorse prance, the fancy ink, but my word, no modern batsman can complicate opponents' lives so quickly, and no member of England's order causes Australians such confusion."
As we wait for play to begin, can Nathan Lyon come to the party and sweep up this tail?
