    19.3 has he run himself out?! Yes, he has A break for Australia and Roy is well short. Wasteful from him, but it's Short at deep square again who's pulled off the run out. He's been superb the last few overs. Roy was the one who called for the second. Short's arm is excellent. A risk England didn't need to take 159/1
    34.1 smashed flat out to deep midwicket ... and Richardson scampers round to intercept! The end of a sensational agenda-setting innings from England's most in-form opener of all time... 310/2
    47.2 taken at deep midwicket...Hales had just started to lose his shape in the last few minutes. He heaves a length delivery a long way into the air and it's comfortably taken 459/4
    37.3 taken at long-on! There won't be any fireworks from Buttler today. He gets underneath a full delivery, gets more height than distance, and Finch settles underneath. Another slower ball from Richardson, out of the back of the day, excellent bowling 335/3
    47.3 two wickets in two balls...Morgan tries to take this from outside off over the leg side, goes very high in the air and Paine settles under the catch 459/5
    49.5 and Moeen is run out by Paine's under arm throw from behind the stumps...Root had a swing and a miss, another slower ball, and Paine shows his ten-pin bowling skills 480/6

    3.1 chipped in the air, and that is as tame as a fluffy pet rabbit! Through the shot too early, Moeen stoops at mid-on, and Short is gone! 27/1

    12.3 another soft and fluffy dismissal! What a way to give it away. Very full from Moeen, which lures a limp pokey nothing shot, straight back into the bowler's grasp! 95/2
    14.1 hoisted high and mightily down the ground ... but Plunkett is perched on the rope, and swallows the opportunity! Just didn't quite get enough bat through the ball, and for all Australia's intent, they are in peril now 100/3
    23.6 he's been run out here! An excellent throw from Bairstow coming in from deep square. Stoinis hopped inside the line, worked the ball to deeps square, Maxwell called him back for the second and he's sold Stoinis well short. Bullet arm from Bairstow. Looks of thunder from Stoinis and Langer 173/5

    20.4 done him this time! He tosses it up much slower, Finch goes for another big shot down the ground and is completely done in the air. Lovely stuff from the leggie, even if he does have the cushion of a mountain of runs 152/4
    27.3 top catch at long-on! A back-of-a-length delivery, into the pitch, Maxwell heaves pretty straight but Plunkett makes good ground to his left and times his leap perfectly to hold in 194/7
    26.6 he's basically pulled a long hop to deep square! Good catch by Hales. A drag down from Rashid, Paine only had one man to beat on the leg side but couldn't keep the ball down and Hales moved to his right to snaffle the take 190/6
    34.5 well held! Rashid's good night continues, as he springs to his right to hold a sharp, low catch. Agar slices across the delivery slightly, came out the front of the hand, miscues it back down the pitch, Rashid takes it very neatly 230/8
    35.6 well, he didn't shape up too nicely there! Oops. A charge down the pitch, head in the air, this is bowled with nice flight, grips and spins between bat and pad. Simple stumping 236/9

    36.6 and that's all over! Another googly from Rashid, Stanlake lunges out of his crease, spins past the outside edge and Buttler has time to do the rest. 239/10
