Fourth Test, day three, Old Trafford
Australia will retain Ashes with win
Burns 60, Root 47
Pat Cummins is finding a little more life in the pitch than Hazlewood. He's still up close to 90mph with his pace. Burns lifts his gloves to get them out of the way of a short ball.
England are still a long, long way behind Australia but this has been a very good partnership.
We're getting clever now. Cricket-related inflatable puns. Excellent.

Crack! This shows you there isn't a lot of pace in the pitch. Joe Root climbs into a bouncer from Josh Hazlewood and clobbers it away for four to square leg. "Rooooooot" cries the crowd. A group of knights stand and wave the ball to the rope.

Did you know that every year the world's best inflatable footballer is given a blow-up entrance to recognise their achievements? Balloon door.

Old man next to us in Holland had inflatable shoes. We were very sad to hear he had popped his clogs.
Paul Jones, London
Joe Root looks busy. He misses one off his hip but is repeating the shot afterwards, telling himself what he should have done better. The pitch seems to be dying a little. The ball from Josh Hazlewood isn't getting up as high.

Tie helium-filled inflatables to the glass of everybody who buys a gin or whisky at the game. Sure to lift everybody's spirits.

Just one from Pat Cummins' over. There are 17 minutes to go until tea. These two have done a fine job so far. Can they see it through?
Is the mild amusement of seeing Joe Root getting hit where it hurts worth half of that £15 WiFi fee?

Gareth Price: Poor guy’s paid £15 Wi-fi for all these inflatable jokes. Journey must be flying by. Blown up in his face a bit.

Joe Root keeps the strike at the end of the over as the sun comes out. This partnership is now worth 92.

The Beatles’ outfits from the Sgt Pepper’s album cover have been a popular fancy dress choice at this Test. Paul, George and Ringo are currently queuing for the portaloos but John is alright for now.
Not too much happening on the pitch by the way. Joe Root lets four Josh Hazlewood deliveries go by.
We have a winner!

My mom, dad and brother were inflatable. I was fooling around with darts one day and accidentally punctured them all – dad said I’d let the whole family down.

Michael Newsome: These inflatables puns are taking my breath away... I'll see myself out.
Andrew Parker: My flat mate went out with an inflatable doll for a bit. Things went south when he popped the question.
I'm laughing at these puns way too much.

I once bought an inflatable in the shape of a stick of dynamite. Very convincing. It even blew itself up.

I bought an inflatable snake the other day. It went hiss. What a let down.

Half an appeal from Mitchell Starc for lbw against Burns but Tim Paine reckons it was sliding down. The umpire agrees. Australia decide against a review.
