ENG vs AUS Day 4: Australia would be now feeling the buzz of Bazball as England are in a commanding position after the end of day 3.

England displayed that 'the Bazball' is not just HYPE, it is an effect that can annihilate the opposition within a blink of an eye. Following up on their overnight total, they managed to rack up 200 more runs in a session and a half, giving them a mammoth 275-run first innings lead due to the "Bazball" effect. Bairstow was on fire and equally unfortunate, missing his century by just 1 run. Another day with a low and slow over rate can be one of the reasons we don't receive a result on this test.
In response, the Australian batters have done their best to avoid throwing the game. England did a fantastic job with the new ball and was able to get four of the top batters. There is still quite a bit of batting in Australia's lineup, and with a lot of rain forecast, anything might happen. Today is undoubtedly a start-stop day, so the Australian batsmen will be put to the test.

ENG vs AUS Day 4 Pitch Report
With a pitch that makes it quite easy for the ball to go onto the bat, Old Trafford has always offered favorable batting conditions. The team batting first has won the majority of games at this venue because teams who win the toss typically choose to bat first. But there is always room for exception as England is on the doorstep of victory while batting second.
As of now, the surface is quite dead. Almost no grass was left on the surface and it looks like England is losing their essence of being England in terms of pitches. The new ball did swing but once the ball gets old, there is nothing for a bowler in the surface. England need 6 more wickets to even the series 2-all but heavy rain is forecasted for day 4 and day 5.
