    Surrey have provided Amar Virdi to England as one of the 12th men for this test. Whilst he has become incredibly experienced at carrying drinks I do hope we dont end up with him sub fielding. Could be costly. The fringes of Surrey's squad is full of exceptional fielders. Odd decision to put up someone who is famously terrible at it.
    Should've asked Foakes to wear a ginger wig and just snuck the gloves on him

    Even first hour.

    Australia not reviewing that would have made it England's.  Australia taking those two catches would have made it theirs.

    Cummins has bowled really well this morning. Unrecognisable from OT

    A fine example of the old adage of adding 2 wickets to the score...

    Third Aussie drop of the morning…

    The ball is doing a lot more after 15 overs than it was in the first half a dozen

    Lacquer off the ball I guess. Tbf the first hour was good but if they'd taken their chances it would've been different.

    So nearly a 50 before lunch, from our number 5!

    Australia slightly ahead after that second hour.

    Great counter attack from Brook. Pretty even at lunch I’d say

    Good response after the tricky 15 mins or so
