Huge appeal from Australia as Josh Hazlewood hits Cook on the pads. Hazlewood was off celebrating. He thought that was out and so did Steve Smith at slip. The captain is stood arms outstretched, begging for the finger to go up.

Australia think about a review but decide against it. Wow! Big! Replays show that was knocking leg stump out of the ground. If they had reviewed that would have been out.

Swing for Mitchell Starc! Mark Stoneman faces his first deliveries of the innings and the third delivery is full and moves away from the England opener's outside edge. England will not want to see this pink ball hooping around for much longer. This theoretically should be the easiest time to bat today.

Three plays and misses in the over from Stoneman but he survives. Starc has a wry smile on his face but the geordie batter keeps his head down.

Once again it is Josh Hazlewood to share the new ball with Mitchel Starc for Australia. Hazlewood's pace was up to 90mph in the first innings and his first over is around 87mph. Like the first innings Cook looks relatively solid to the Aussie quicks and blocks out a maiden.

Is this a good sign for England? CricViz says their chances of winning have increased by 2% compared to the start of play.

A pretty easy first over, with everyone just feeling each other out. The thing in England's favour is the middle session is usually the easiest for batting.

Jerusalem rings around the Adelaide Oval from the England supporters as Starc charges in. The ground is nowhere near as full as the earlier days. Not an intimidating atmosphere by any means.

It's a quiet start from Starc outside the off stump and Alastair Cook gets off the mark off the final ball with a solid push into the off side. Just 353 runs to go.

Right. Here we go. Alastair Cook takes guard in the middle. Mitchell Starc will bowl the first over.

I'm going to offer the superstitious people reading this one crumb of comfort however.

Regular readers may remember (probably won't remember) that I was in the live-texters' chair for the final blows of West Indies remarkable fourth innings run chase against England at Headingley earlier this summer.

The Windies made 332-5 that day.

If any of you are feeling confident that England can chase these 354 runs for victory, sorry, I'm going to burst your bubble. This is what they are facing...

• England require their highest successful fourth-innings chase in Test history. Their previous best is 332-7 against Australia at Melbourne in 1928.
• They also have to produce the highest successful chase at the Adelaide Oval, beating the current record of 315-6 by Australia against England in 1902.
• If England are successful it will be the 10th highest successful fourth-innings chase in Test history.

Thanks Amy.

That was realistically about as good as England could have hoped for, wasn't it?

That much improved bowling performance means England need 354 runs for a victory that will level the series. Australia need 10 wickets for a 2-0 lead.

The players are currently taking tea, which means the Australia bowlers have 20 minutes to freshen up, and Alastair Cook and Mark Stoneman have some time to recover after being in the field. There's 66 overs left in the day.

I'm off for some brekkie. Matt Henry will take you through England's reply.

England's James Anderson, whose 5-43 was his first five-wicket haul in Australia, on BT Sport: "I'm really happy with it. All the bowlers bowled brilliantly - we created pressure from both ends.

"It shows that we're still fighting. We've got to do something special, but we've got plenty of time. If two or three batsmen put their hand up and score big hundreds, we've got a great chance.

"The bonus we've got is we won't be facing a new ball under lights; it will be 30 overs old. It's up to us to try and bat as long as we possibly can."

England met by the staff as they leave the field, with a handshake from Paul Collingwood for James Anderson.

That was a better bowling performance than the first innings from England. The length was right and the line was right. They asked questions.

Australia played a little freer with the big lead but it shows their batting line-up can wobble a bit. Now it is up to the batsmen to put some pressure on.

Usman Khawaja and Mitch Starc were the joint top scorers for Australia with 20, but that feels largely irrelevant now. England have to make use of the good batting conditions they'll have now to bed themselves in. They need to show patience, and determination, and just more care than they showcased in the first innings. By the time the lights come on, the ball will be old, and it does get knocked out of shape.

Bowling figures for you:

• Anderson 22-7-43-5
• Broad: 13-6-26-0
• Overton: 2-0-11-1
• Woakes: 16-3-36-4
• Moeen: 5-0-20-0

Oh, to have done that on the first day...

Only 10 teams have chased over 350 in Test match cricket.

Stating the obvious time: that is an almighty total for England to chase down, and I don't think they'll get near it. Still. What a performance with the ball, last night and today, to dismiss Australia for 138.

Chris Woakes chance at a five wicket haul will have to wait - here's Craig Overton.
