Series drawn - AUS retain the Ashes
Aussies obviously in the driver's seat, but England still have a small chance to win this Test. If they can bat the rest of today and score quickly and maybe bat for a short time tomorrow get 150-200 runs ahead and hope that the pitch falls apart.
Normally, the sensible thing for the English to do would be to just bat out as much time as possible to ensure a draw. But they don't really have anything to lose here. And it is Bazball England so we'll see.
