    This is looking ominous for England.

  2. Aus 189-5published at 18.1 overs

    That one's just bad luck.

    Good slower ball from Jofra Archer but the edge flies down to the third man boundary.

    That is so sloppy from England. Adil Rashid stands with his arms outstretched and Jos Buttler just takes his helmet off and looks at his fielders. It is as sloppy as can be.

  4. Aus 185-5published at 18 overs

    Oh, that is very poor. Adil Rashid is furious, both hands on hips.

    Matthew Wade reverse sweeps it between Jofra Archer at short third and Jonny Bairstow at point. One of them should stop it, but instead they both just look at one another.

    That is sloppy. Peak sloppiness, in fact.

  5. Aus 178-5published at 17.2 overs

    Threaded through the covers for four. Lovely shot from Matthew Wade.

    Just the 13 sixes so far.

    This has been a display of immense power, in every sense, from Australia so far.

  8. Aus 173-5published at 17 overs

    Wait, how on earth is Matthew Wade in at seven?! This isn't fair.

    Oh, and Chris Jordan bowls a wide. And then Jofra Archer dives over the ball at long-off, so the extra delivery goes for four.

    England have been pretty sloppy throughout.

    David c Livingstone b Jordan 11 (Aus 168-5)

    Chris Jordan with a great response.

    Tim David goes for another big shot over cover, but it gets caught in the breeze and Liam Livingstone takes a simple catch on the boundary.

    Aus 166-4

    I mean, Chris Jordan can set his own fields, can't he?

    And next ball he puts down a chance - admittedly a very tough one - in his follow-through. It was clubbed back at him, low to the ground.

    But we've seen him take more spectacular ones than that in the past.

    That is amazing power.

    Chris Jordan is putting his arms out to say "have we got this field right?".

    That is what Tim David is in the side to do. This is speciality. This is what he's trained to do.

  13. Aus 166-4published at 16.1 overs

    Six over cover! Astonishing power from Tim David.

    Chris Jordan under pressure.

  14. Postpublished at 19:21 British Summer Time 8 June

    Despite the six, Livingstone has bowled well so far, in fairness.

  15. 6 runs

    Aus 160-4published at 16 overs

    Marcus Stoinis spoils Liam Livingstone's second good over by absolutely nailing one down the ground for six more.

    That may be the biggest of the day so far.

    They're dealing in sixes and singles at the moment.

    Buttler needs to give up the captaincy, or give the gloves to Salt or Bairstow. This running up and down to talk to bowlers, taking ages to set fields, slow over rates. It's very sloppy.

    Chris

  17. 6 runs

    Aus 149-4published at 15 overs

    A one-handed slog sweep for six from Marcus Stoinis, as you do. That spoils a very good over.

    It's the 11th six of the innings so far.

    Unfortunately, that's not how cricket works, Henry.

    England needed that. If you take out the first five overs, they've actually done pretty well.

    Maxwell c Salt b Rashid 28 (Aus 141-4)

    Another vital breakthrough!

    Glenn Maxwell tries to take on the aggressive role after Marsh's departure but he holes out to deep mid-wicket, gifting Phil Salt a simple catch.

    England are slowly starting to turn the tide.
