    You can noticeably see that Archer is charging in faster. It is good in Test cricket to have that extra gear.

    Jimbob: I already can't wait to see Jofra Archer bowl at Perth.

  6. Aus 198-6published at 74.2 overs

    60 behind

    An assured stroke from Australia fast bowler Cummins and it races through the covers for the 21st boundary of the innings, warmly applauded by a collection of travelling supporters in yellow beanie hats.

  7. Aus 194-6published at 74 overs

    Smith still looks in trouble after striking a straight drive at Leach. Archer will continue and it will be Cummins on strike this time.

  8. 'Believe the hype'published at 14:27 British Summer Time 17 August 2019

    BBC Sport at Lord's

    Finally, finally England have found a way to unsettle Steve Smith. After travelling around Australia with peashooters, some rocket-propelled grenades from Jofra Archer have him rattled. The crowd know it too, roaring Archer in. Believe the hype.

    Marcus Pitt: This is like Donald vs Atherton all those years ago. Utterly compelling.

  10. Aus 194-6published at 73.4 overs

    64 behind

    There is no space in the Long Room as the members watch on intently and Cummins races through for a single to leave Smith on strike to spinner Leach.

    This is a great spell of bowling. England have sensed something. Can they capitalise on it?

  13. Aus 193-6published at 73 overs

    65 behind

    The end of Archer's 25th over and yet he sends one down at 96mph. The crowd are loving this. A fine short ball and Smith fends it awkwardly off his chest but it is just in front of the short leg fielder.

    That is possibly the worst review in history. It was nowhere near the bat.

  15. Not outpublished at 14:22 British Summer Time 17 August 2019

    Cummins on 7

    It has sailed over everything by some distance, not surprisingly given it was close to 94mph.

    It feels speculative but we will see.

  17. England reviewpublished at 14:21 British Summer Time 17 August 2019

    With one second remaining, England ask for a review for caught behind at Cummins from another hostile Archer delivery.

  18. 'This is serious heat'published at 14:20 British Summer Time 17 August 2019

    Archer has really lifted this Lord's crowd. He is bowling rapid. This is serious heat.

  19. Aus 191-6published at 72.2 overs

    Smith 75, Cummins 7

    Another short one, another miscued hook but it falls short of the fine leg fielder and they get a single.

    This is an interesting period now with Smith wrapping his arm up. Archer has used the slope well to angle the ball in.
