Australia and England are playing the 5th and final Test at the Oval and after the first two days of play, the game is quite beautifully poised.
England managed 283 runs in their first innings, and in reply, Australia were bowled out for 295 yesterday (July 28). The England side had the Aussies under the screw at 185 for 7, but a late flurry of runs from Pat Cummins (36) and Todd Murphy (34) gave them a lot of impetus as the visitors were able to grind out a 12-run lead.
