    0.1 he's gone first ball! Glorious start for Australia! Drives one on the up, it was perhaps a little too short to be a half-volley, but Roy didn't shy away from flashing, and it goes straight to backward point. Phenomenal start for Australia 0/1

    40.1 Makes the breakthrough. Rolled his fingers over it and it spins in sharply to pierce the gap between bat and pad and knock off stump back! He has to go for a magnificent century, and Australia have a bit of wind in their sails now 220/6
    0.2 big appeal, and he's gone too! Starc is on a hat-trick! Swinging in to the batsman and Root misses the drive. It looked like it was smashing into leg stump, and no, he won't be reviewing it! 0/2
    10.2 and he gets the breakthrough! Morgan looks pretty unimpressed with himself, and so he should. He struck it well, but attempting that short with Starc stationed at mid-off was much too risky 67/3
    18.1 lots of air, and Buttler's holed out cheaply again! Massive wicket, Buttler tries once more to go inside out through extra cover, and Finch is right in situ to scoop him up in the covers! Reward for probing bowling, and good thinking, inviting the skimmed drive, and getting the reward! 96/4
    37.3 reverse sweep and Billings gives it away!. He didn't get that anywhere near the middle; it caught the top of the bat and flew up straight to the man at 45. He goes for an attractive half-century 210/5

    46.2 gets his revenge. Sends down one of those unplayable yorkers he's the best in the world at. Got revrse swing to moves it away from the bat and clatter into the base of off stump 266/7

    10.5 bowled him! Wow, Warner has been opened up like a can of peaches! Big spin as Warner retreated to leg to make room, but was utterly undone from a middle-and-leg line. Gripping, ripping, clipping the top of off. Wow! Who needs Archer as your nemesis, when Joe Root is on the scene! 51/3
    2.5 massive appeal, bang in front! Gone! Finch doesn't blink as he turns on his heel, shaping in, thumping a pad that was positively Watto-esque in girth. That was smashing the lot, and England have their breakthrough! 21/1
    4.6 slower ball from Woakes, Stoinis didn't pick it and tries to flick to the leg side, gets an edge to Morgan at short mid-wicket 31/2
    16.5 dropped into the offside and another quick single, and this time it's a run-out! The keeper collects cleanly and removes the bails, and moments after getting a warning, Labuschagne has to go! 73/5
    12.4 flicked across the line, is there an inside-edge on that? You bet there is! A fat deflection, onto the knee-roll, a simple lob to Buttler as he jogs round from behind the stumps. And suddenly Australia's challenge is in free-fall! 55/4
    48.6 stunning catch at third man! Mark Wood! Tumbling forward, like a mirror image of Simon Jones at Edgbaston ... swooping low, as Archer banged in the short wide one! The umpires are taking a look to make sure, but that reaction was unequivocal! Dipping out of the lights, amazing athleticism, stretching to the pitch, and suddenly, the key man is gone, and perhaps as importantly, it's another dot! 293/7
    47.3 another mow, another top-edge, and that's the wicket! Oh my! Rashid went for the slow wide one, tossed right up to tempt the glory wipe... and Curran at short third man just about clung on with a juggle as he leapt forward! 285/6
