  1. 'A massive test for Buttler's captaincy'

    Henry Moeran
    BBC Test Match Special commentator on BBC Sounds

    This is a massive test for Jos Buttler's captaincy. He's got to get every decision right from here on in.

  2. Aus 70-1

    Here's Jofra Archer with the last over of the powerplay.

    Just watching a replay of that wicket from Moeen, and it did keep pretty low.

    Adil Rashid, you might want to get warmed up.

  3. England fans, watch at your own peril.

  4. Steven Finn
    Former England fast bowler on BBC Sounds

    David Warner has done two different roles in this World Cup so far. He was patient last game and now, he's put the hammer down and exploded and put England under the pump.

    WICKET

    Warner b Moeen 39 (Aus 70-1)

    And breathe!

    Moeen Ali fights back, bowling fuller and flatter. Warner goes back, tries to cut but it's too full and he's bowled - but he's done his job.

    Australia have a flying start and he goes for 39 from just 16 balls, including four sixes.

  6. Matthew Henry
    BBC Sport in Barbados

    England fans massively outnumber Australian in the crowd today but there's not a lot of noise from them right now.

  7. Aus 70-0

    Too short.

    Four.

    What's going on?!

  8. Geoff Lemon
    Test Match Special commentator on BBC Sounds

    England are in the heat and they are wilting so far.

  9. 6 runs

    Aus 65-0

    It's unravelling.

    Six more down the ground.

    And yes, you're reading the score right. Travis Head and David Warner are having an absolute day out and we're not even five overs in.

  10. Steven Finn
    Former England fast bowler on BBC Sounds

    This is savage, isn't it? It's an unpleasant watch if you're an England fan at the moment.

  11. Aus 59-0

    Jos Buttler turns back to Moeen Ali for some control, because his first over went for just three.

    But Travis Head whacks the first ball over his head for four.

  12. Aus 55-0

    The over ends with a dot.

    Ermmm.

    I don't think this was part of Buttler's plan when he chose to bowl first.

  13. Matthew Henry
    BBC Sport in Barbados

    The field, and therefore England's plan, is changing after every ball here.

  14. Aus 55-0

    Warner keeps it along the floor this time but it's still four.

    Mark Wood is banging it in short but Warner's not afraid to take it on.

    6,6,0,4 from the over so far.

  15. 6 runs

    Aus 51-0

    Low full toss, six more.

    I don't really know what to say here. Just copy and paste 'six' in each post?

  16. Aus 45-0

    A dot ball! Phew.

  17. Australia are running amok! David Warner has 25 from nine balls!

  18. Aus 45-0

    Pulled over square leg for six more.

    This is brutal. David Warner is in the mood here.

  19. Steven Finn
    Former England fast bowler on BBC Sounds

    They're about sixty quid a ball! And I think it may have taken out another solar panel.

    Mark Wood was trying to go full and in at the stumps but it's on Warner's pads and the pace has carried it for six.

  20. Aus 39-0

    The double spin experiment doesn't last long. Jos Buttler goes for the opposite with double pace.

    But it makes no difference. David Warner flicks the first ball out of the ground for the most effortless of sixes.
