Adam Gilchrist recorded the second fastest century in the history of Test cricket, in 57 balls, and put England in all sorts of trouble. He missed the record by only one ball - the fastest Test century was recorded by Sir Vivian Richards of West Indies in 85=86 season against England.
Aussies declared the second innings at 527/5 at just under 5 runs an over, setting England 557 runs for the victory in just a little over two days.
Aussies recorded 3 centuries (Hussey 103, Clarke 135*and Gilchrist 102*) and 2 half centuries (Hayden 92 (damn!!) and Ponting 75).
England already struggling at 12/1 with Strauss being adjudged LBW in the first over of their innings. Only a miracle can save England now. But let's hope they will give a good fight and drag the match onto a close win to any of the countries.
Eariler, Aussies scored 244 all out in their first innings and England were bowled out for 215, leaving Australia with a lead of only 29.
