If, like Tim, you've just got up at stupid o'clock then stay tuned for more recaps and reaction.

There is also our man at Sydney, Stephan Shemilt's day three report building here.

Australia have added 286 runs for the loss of just two wickets on a brutal day three for England at a scorching SCG.

Usman Khawaja converted his 91 not out overnight into a majestic 171, before he was stumped off the bowling of Mason Crane - the 20-year-old's first Test wicket.

Steve Smith looked on course for a fourth century of the series, but fell for 83, miscuing a drive off Moeen Ali, who took a fine caught and bowled chance.

Yet that sparked nothing for England, with Shaun Marsh accumulating serenely to finish on 98 not out, with young brother Mitchell unbeaten on 63.

Australia closed on 479-4, a lead of 133 runs.

More from Jonny Bairstow: "I thought Mason bowled really nicely. There were obviously a few bits that he'll learn from this. Moving on in his international career, he will take a lot from this.

"The experience he'll have gained from bowling against the world's best will be an invaluable one for him moving forward with us guys as a team.

"It's good to see a bit of turn. It's a game of inches and ifs and buts, but that's what keeps you interested."

There's a very significant gulf between the two teams in these conditions.

Ashley Parker: This Ashes tour has been a shambles. The sooner it's over the better.

England wicketkeeper Jonny Bairstow, speaking to Test Match Special: "I'm going to have to put some aftersun on! It was a tough day. The boys have toiled realy hard.

"I think the way Mason and Moeen bowled - the control Moeen had, especially early on, was fantastic. It was good to see him bowl with that. There's been a load of questions asked but there have never been any doubts in our set-up about Moeen.

"It's quite laughable sometimes when people question players in our side. It was only a few weeks ago that people were saying Cookie should be dropped, and look how that played out. There's no question that the effort and desire is there. It's been a tough trip but the desire is still there."

It's been a tough day for England. Mason Crane bowled pretty well - he's probably been a little bit unlucky.

There's a lot of evidence there that Mason Crane has a very promising future. I think he looked composed in a very tough environment. He didn't get the yips in any way.

Crane did not let that disappointment - or the boos at the SCG whenever he didn't release the ball during his run-up - get to him though.

He finally removed Khawaja by sending it down wide, spinning it through the bat and pad of the onrushing batsman, with Bairstow completed the stumping.

I've been very impressed with Mason Crane. He's bowled a lot of overs and toiled away. He was robbed of his first wicket, in my opinion, by the no-ball decision. With a bit of luck going his way, he could have easily got three or four wickets.

For England, there are very few positives to take from a draining day at a scorching SCG.

One might be Mason Crane though. Figures of 39-3-135-1 might not look too clever but the 20-year-old bowled some decent spells and posed some problems for all the Aussie batsmen.

He thought he had his first Test wicket before lunch, rapping Khawaja on the pads as the number three chose not to play a shot. It was given not out, England reviewed, but the third umpire judged Crane had overstepped. No wicket and ball tracking showed it would have been given out without the no-ball.

It was tight. Some will say there was a bit of his boot behind the line, some will say there wasn't.

Rachel T: England are brilliant at some things. Like making their opponents look like the best team of all time.

I didn't think today would be like this - I thought England would take more than two wickets all day. Usman Khawaja made the wicket look absolutely beautiful all day.

Those just joining us might be surprised that Steve Smith isn't still out there. The Aussie skipper looked firmly on course for a fourth century in this series, until his miscued a drive to a Moeen Ali delivery that spun, with the England all-rounder taking a fine return catch.

So Smith out for 83, but then Shaun Marsh came in, steadied things and then accumulated serenely, just as he has done several times in this series.

He'll have to wait for his century - ending the day on 98 not out - but if he starts again like he batted today, those two runs will be a formality.

Older brother has been ably supported by younger brother - Mitchell Marsh overcoming a slow start to hit an entertaining unbeaten 63.

Australia close on 479-4, with a lead of 133.

I've been quite critical of Khawaja this series. There's a vagueness and disengagement about him when he's out of form. Sometimes he seems to drift through the game, but not so here. He used all the different options against the spin. Instead of just having one strength, he brought all those strengths to the party.

Australia batsman Usman Khawaja, who made 171, on ABC: "It was a tough day but ended up being a very good day.

"With the wicket wearing up, we wanted to get as many runs as we could. We knew first-innings runs were important.

"I grew up playing at the SCG - and a first Ashes hundred... It felt really far away before the start of the game. I wanted to get a big score. It's amazing how things can change."

Usman Khawaja duly converted his 91 not out overnight into a sixth Test century and then made it a daddy hundred.

The number three grew increasingly fluent, playing some gorgeous clips and whips through, while also moving his feet to the spinners brilliantly.

He was finally removed for 171 by Mason Crane, who got one through Khawaja as he danced down the pitch, with Jonny Bairstow completing the stumping to give Crane his first Test wicket.

Hello to those of you with a 7am alarm in the UK. Australia are firmly in control of the final Test, leading England by 133 runs with six wickets still remaining in their first innings.

For those that haven't already returned to bed after reading that - stay tuned for more recaps and reaction from day three.

I can see England drawing this Test, but I can't see them winning it. The problem will come with Nathan Lyon, who won't bowl as many bad balls as the England spinners. I'd be tempted to break up the batting order. Be ultra aggressive to him - he doesn't like it.
