The first bowling change this morning was Josh Hazlewood replacing Pat Cummins at Pavilion End. Cummins established a more orthodox field for Jonny Bairstow with a couple of slips and deep-footed men for the occasional player. Bairstow drove the square of the racquet and collected one to bring back 300 for England.

They will need to run a few more times before they can think of winning this game.

Loose! Hazlewood pulled back his length with Stuart Broad, who was looking to hook him up. An upper edge flies down to the third man and yields a single hit after landing far away from the operator.

Four runs! A much-needed release for England came from Bairstow, who dribbled past two catchers in a sliding barrier and made it to the third-man’s boundary for four.

Stuart Broad’s main problem is around his hips. He likes to move sideways and get in the touchline of the short ball, when he is steady even though he can go over the bounce and direct the ball down. There’s a silly midway stop to catch though, though that makes things more complicated.

A very sharp guard quickly rushed over to Broad, who was awkwardly ducking underneath it. The referee signals for a wide touchline when the ball bounces over the top of the 6ft 4′ wide touchline.

Starc’s desire to cause trouble for hitters saw him swerve across a twisty road without the ball, bringing England closer to 300. The two extra innings were runs. the only place from the top down.

This is not the time when Stuart Broad wants to hit the ball. A smash is not his thing at all. Not every ball is hit but there is enough speed and bounce to make it difficult for the hitter when it does.

Bairstow and Broad collected a few runs from Cummins’ over.

Stuart Broad was the new hitter for England and scored the winning goal with a midfield push. Mitchell Starc hit another shot at Jonny Bairstow, who leaned back and let the ball fly to Alex Carey.

Have him! Mitchell Starc’s short balls are working. He directed a hit to Harry Brook’s body as the batter tried to open the offside again.

Brook slaps a ball into the cover but fails to catch the ball well and passes it straight to Pat Cummins, who is holding the ball.

Now, the field suggests that Australia will also target Jonny Bairstow with some short content. There are men out in the deep and a short leg in place. Bairstow bounces and sends the ball to the opponent’s foot.

Harry Brook tries to score from offside. He stepped out on his feet and tried to lift a ball over his cover but missed the shot and sent it into the field.

50 for Harry Brook! Pat Cummins closes in on a man to test Brook with another short serve but he turns very well and gets the ball down to his forefoot so a half-century bringer makes a lot of money!

Jonny Bairstow also picked up a single. The England team is gradually moving away from the running tracks they need. They go after 124.

Good run from Harry Brook! Jonny Bairstow handled the short ball well and tried to keep the ball when he was close to offside. Brook noticed that the miners were a bit deep and called Bairstow over to get one.

Cummins then pings one into the deck. It was a heavy ball that gripped Brook’s gloves before hitting the side of his helmet.

There will be a break here while Brook undergoes a concussion test.

Australia certainly think there is a weakness in Harry Brook’s short-ball play. Mitchell Starc nudged him with three bounces before Brook hit him in the hip.

Then, Starc passed the ball to Jonny Bairstow, who performed a half-volley and pushed the ball to the puncher in the middle of the match. The final ball is hit inward and Bairstow imagines it.

He pulls and puts the ball into the space at the square foot. There were two men at the boundary but neither was enough and Bairstow started running.

Take care of Jonny. Pat Cummins continued when he found a modicum of bounce to get the ball flying low down the court. Bairstow executes a ball on the inside edge, causing the ball to clack into his pad and excite the Australian for half a second.

Bairstow defended the rest of the over. This was a good start to his rounds as Pat Cummins and Mitchell Starc found their rhythm from the start.
