Australia lose their last five wickets for 33 but they have a very good total after being put in. It was set up yesterday by Marnus Labuschagne and Steven Smith then taken on today by Travis Head and Tim Paine. "It's pretty cool," Head tells Fox Cricket. "Nice to go on with my start." New Zealand will have, I think, 21 overs to face tonight. That will be very tough. Alex will be with you for the start of the innings
