England are hanging on by the proverbial finger nail due to Jacob Bethell who has played a magnificent innings, ending the day on 142 not out.

Stumps on day four in Sydney. England are 302-8 in their second innings, 119 ahead overall. There have been times when Australia have flunked small final innings chases - Headingley and Edgbaston in 1981 being two such cases, the SCG in 1894 another, and there was one in 1998-9 when Dean Headley did the damage, as well as one against South Africa in the same era when Fanie de Villiers was the destroyer. Australia definitely favourites though.

England still in a massive hole, but Australia will not be taking the extra half hour in a bid to finish it today. England, led by Bethell's maiden first class ton, have done enough to ensure that much at least.

@ianRobinson And ridiculously the other day Josh Tongue with four wickets to his name and bowling superbly was taken off so someone else could use the new ball.
