    Yeah - slightly hometown decision from the real umpire on that one.

    Root nearly gives Starc a hattrick.

    Second-ranked batsman in the world can't easily play out a hattrick ball shows just how hard it it.

    At the same time, Cummins gave him something on 6th stump and he flashed at it next over. That wasn't even part of Joe Root's early career.

          Happy for Boland. Might be his first and last test.

                    Well after half a day of spirited cricket it looks like England remembered that they’re England. Talk about absolutely fucked. Still a glimmer of hope if one or both of these two stays around but it’s not looking promising.

                    if I was Stokes I’d be on the phone to Beefy Botham asking him about 81 and getting a few tips.

                    If I was Root I’d be unable to sleep from the stress of carrying this team.

                    Warner should get two days of golf in all things considered.

                        That would be a record win time, for the ashes, I think? Good odds, one would imagine

                          Brutal, brilliant stuff from Australia.

                          England are bunnies in the headlights of a juggernaut.

                            Quite impressive from the Aussies here, destroying a mentally fragile England team.

                            Worth pointing that the current test champions had their arse handed to them 3-0 the last time they toured there though.

                            Australia really can be a brutal place to tour if you aren't running at 100%.

                              Damn right and that’s why most predicted 5-0 to Oz which is still well on the cards.

                                  England will be hoping Extras will be there to support Root today, they’ve had a pretty decent year.

                                      Top non verbal sledging I reckon.

                                          Well, fuck. This is the only time I've felt pity for a ranga. Stokes gone to something utterly unplayable after some nice shots.
