    Jofra Archer mows across the line and just absolutely smashes Nathan Lyon for four! He got hold of that.

    And again! Four more!

    I got into a world of trouble in Bruges on those things Dan. Steady as you go.

    Here's one of the shots of the day from Ben Stokes...

    Drinking Trappist beers in the sun on the France/Belgium border. I'd eased off to the 8% blond, but that run-out has got me back on the 12%er...

    Ben Stokes is up to 60 now. Add 40 on to take him to his hundred and that halves the required runs...

    Came to the aquarium this afternoon with the boys, no signal in the depths of the place where the tanks are so now sat in the WiFi cafe surrounding an iPhone. The Spanish don't have a clue what's going on. The dolphins can wait until later #whaleofatime.

    Jofra Archer does need to score. But he just needs a couple of solid scoring shots, nothing silly.

    Not a good shot that from Jofra Archer, a fend outside off stump but he misses out altogether.

    We've all had a drink, and so we play on. Another interruption, often leads to a wicket in my experience.

    Matt Fitzpatrick: Listening in the departure lounge at Lyon airport. Lots of sunburned Englishmen staring at their phones. Our flight's delayed by 3 hours. Hope it's worth it.

    I'd rather he focused on landing a plane if it's all the same.

    Harry Wilson has just scored an absolute peach of a free-kick, but then again Ben Stokes has just danced down the track and clipped Nathan Lyon away for a dreamy four.

    He's had 173 balls to get his eye in...

    Woakes' was a poor dismissal. He sat back because he'd faced so many short balls so his weight was wrong when he hit the shot.
