England could certainly use all the help they can get in the middle order. Although the way things have gone for England lately, I'd be afraid that if they were to don an England shirt, their form would go out the window.
As to this Australian side, Chris Rogers is a pretty big loss. He and Warner formed an incredible opening partnership, although I am very high on Joe Burns. I think he is going to be a fantastic cricketer for Australia.
A huge after tea session from Australia has put them in firm control of this Test. On the plus side for New Zealand, Kane Williamson is still at the crease. On the negative side, they are still 200 runs from avoiding the follow on.

Nice batting by Australia on day 1 and nice bowling on day 2.
Lawd, windies have to face Starc and Johnson soon - may de force be with dem batters cause it could be real ugly.
Joe Burns is going to be a major thorn in many a bowlers side for years to come. It will be interesting to see whether Smith declares overnight or bats on.
