Starc strikes again; yorking Wood for a very useful 28.
Starc has five wickets and has bowled very well – he’s been the sole bright spark for Australia this match.
Buttler is the next man in, a man in desperate need of runs, and England are 306 – 6.

Starc is doing the damage this morning. Great ball to get rid of Buttler.

Starc strikes yet again!
He’s bowled magnificently, and buttler’s lack of form/ability shouldn’t detract from the quality of the delivery – it was a beauty.
Buttler’s gone for 12 and Moeen Ali is in next.
England 324 – 7.

It's good news for England in a way. The ball is still doing a hell of a lot so, even if we're out before tea, we'll be confident of skittling the Aussies again.

England are fairly collapsing now, with Stokes going to a poor, leg-side delivery from Hazlewood which the ‘keeper snaffles.
Stoke goes for a restrained 5 and Broad comes to the crease.
332 – 8.

Moeen Ali’s gone for a handy 38 off the bowling of Johnson which was brilliantly caught by Steve smith.
England are 390 - 9, and England lead by 330.

Australia make it to lunch on 14 for no wicket. It was probably Australia's morning; but they were so pathetic yesterday they have a mammoth task ahead of them to save this game.

Do I detect the first hints of doubt creeping in...

like Gary Glitter creeping into a Thai boarding school dorm... in the dead of night... cock in hand.... grin on his face like a gaping vagina...

Cook drops a catchable chance to dismiss Warner for 10 off the bowling of Broad. Everything stuck yesterday, but Oz have had a bit of luck today.
Rogers has 15, Warner 10 and Aus are 32 - 0.

Aus are piling on the runs now; 82 for no wicket.
