Pete and Gid watch Australia steadily grind their way through England's second innings at Adelaide Oval, until they're within a whiff of retaining the Ashes, with Pat Cummins and Nathan Lyon making their presences felt, and Joe Root and Harry Brook eclipsed.  Not much longer now folks.

Pete and Gid watch Adelaide celebrate its favourite son, as Travis Head peels off a fourth consecutive century on his home ground, and Australia march to a lead of 358.  Also: don't look now but we might have a five-day Test on our hands.

Pete and Gid perspire in 40+ degrees as England melt down under a red hot Australian assault, Nathan Lyon becomes Australia's second highest wicket taker, and Ben Stokes becomes England's slowest batter of summer.  Also: why is cricket in such a technology cul de sac, and why is the Exeter serving beer in plastic cups?

Pete and Gideon bask in a bumper first day to the Third Test at Adelaide Oval, complete with an Usman Khawaja comeback and an Alex Carey hundred in the absence of Steve Smith.  Also: is it time to doubt Cameron Green?  And is time for a Saily live read?  We think so.

Pete and Gideon catch up with the omission of Usman Khawaja from Australia's Third Test team, and wonder if they have seen the last of Australia's veteran opener.  Also: is it the size of the dog in the fight, or the size of the fight in the dog?  We have questions for Ben Stokes.  Welcome back Gaz and Pat; still no sign of Shoaib Bashir.  Also have we mentioned we love Adelaide?

Pete and Gid watch a crazy, heady, reckless second day at the Gabba, where England tried to give the Test away but Australia wouldn't quite let them, when easy catches went down but hard ones were taken, when bowlers gave up hundreds but batters couldn't make them.
