    Broad has been one of the bowlers of the series. That might have just kept a little low and went away. There is no better feeling as a bowler than when you rip out off stump.

    Comprehensively castled.

    WICKETpublished at 5 overs

    Harris b Broad 9 (Aus 18-1)

    And the very next ball, Stuart Broad has the ultimate revenge for getting hit for four.

    Angled in from round the wicket, on a length but the ball kept low and zipped through Marcus Harris to knock over off stump.

    Harris played down the wrong line as well and his miserable series ends in miserable fashion.

    England on the board - nine more to go.

    It is incredible that this is the last innings of the summer and this is now Australia's highest opening partnership of the series.

  7. Aus 18-0published at 11:50 British Summer Time 15 September 2019

    David Warner shapes to play but then leaves at the last minute before scurrying a leg bye to take Australia to their highest opening stand of the Ashes.

    Marcus Harris then clips deliciously through mid-wicket for four.

    Wonder how Warner will feel if he gets to the nervous 8s or 9s?

    Warner is staying quite leg side of the ball today. By doing that you take lbw out of the equation but you are more likely to get bowled.

  10. Aus 13-0published at 4 overs

    Harris 5, Warner 7

    Jofra Archer cuts one back into David Warner's pads but there is only a brief appeal as that was clearly going down leg.

    Warner chases a wider one again but connects sweetly this time, sending it through the covers for four.

    Warner taps and runs a risky single off the last but Marcus Harris makes his ground as Stuart Broad's throw misses.

    And that matches Harris and Warner's highest partnership of the series.

    When you are in form those usually go flying over the slips. Warner is lucky he did not nick that.

  12. Aus 8-0published at 3.2 overs

    David Warner flashes at one outside off and misses.

    Jofra Archer flashes him a grin.

    There should be something there for the bowlers but it is not an impossible pitch to bat on.

    If Australia do win this then it will be the fifth highest fourth-innings run-chase in Tests and Australia's second highest after the 404-3 at Headingley in 1948.

    The highest successful chase here is 263-9 in 1902 but there have been higher fourth-innings scores in draws and losses.

  15. Aus 8-0published at 3 overs

    Target 399

    Stuart Broad beats Marcus Harris' bat but the Aussie opener has a big response, driving smartly down the ground of four.

    A bit uppish but powerfully struck.

    Yooosh. Jofra Archer rips it millimetres past David Warner's outside edge.

    Australia need a lot of luck and some very good batting to win this. They have got Steve Smith and now they need to support him.
