    Umpire Dharmasena thought about that for a very long time. Has Sam Curran got it straight enough?

  2. There's no bat.

  3. Oh this could be tight. It's legside-ish.

  4. Australia review

    Sam Curran's got Matthew Wade trapped in front.

    Matthew Wade reviews almost immediately.

  5. Here's that comical moment when Steve Smith was completely done by Jonny Bairstow...

    Bairstow's not had much to smile about in this series but he certainly enjoyed this.

  6. It was just a change of ends for Sam Curran as he replaces Chris Woakes.

    Stuart Trolley: Re; Tom Stephens ... watch him be out ‘hit own wicket’.

    Gary Hershcovitch: I reckon Tom Stephens is more likely to be a grandparent than England get Smith out.

    Gary Lane: I'd go for the birth of Tom's next child happening before Smith's out.

  8. Aus 117-3

    Ooh that's close for England.

    Jack Leach gets a little bit of turn out and it flicks off Matthew Wade's gloves and just past a diving Jos Buttler at short leg.

    Good start from Leach.

  9. Glenn McGrath
    Ex-Australia bowler on BBC Test Match Special

    Australia's plan will be to ensure Jack Leach can't settle.

  10. Stephan's wish has come true.

    Jack Leach is going to replace Sam Curran.

    Happy days...

  12. Aus 115-3

    Chris Woakes drops short this time and Matthew Wade thumps a cut to the cover boundary.

    That may be the last we see of Chris Woakes for a while I think.

  13. What's going to come first?

    The birth of Tom's child or the wicket of Steve Smith?

    I'm probably going to side with the birth of Tom and partner's child...

    Tom Stephens: My wife's in labour... whoever gets Smith out goes down as the middle name...?

  15. Glenn McGrath
    Ex-Australia bowler on BBC Test Match Special

    This is an important partnership for Australia. The pitch is going to get up and down in bounce and turn a bit.

  16. Aus 109-3

    Matthew Wade picks up a couple before Sam Curran comes back with five dot balls to end the over.

  17. I'm with Stephan, it's time for a bit of spin.

    The pitch offered a little bit of assistance to Nathan Lyon yesterday and Jack Leach did cause Steve Smith some (very minor) issues at Old Trafford last week.

  18. Stephan Shemilt
    BBC Sport at The Oval

    Any chance of Jack Leach having a bowl?

    Mark: How are these third umpires not seeing the ball hit the bat and deviate on to the pads? Two in two Tests now. Not good enough. Especially when you have technology.

  20. Aus 107-3

    Oh beautiful again from Steve Smith.

    It's a bit full from Chris Woakes and Smith just punches him back through mid-on for his fifth boundary.

    I know some won't agree but he's a delight to watch.
