    I would 100% back Steve Waugh to bat Australia to victory today. Still.

    Looking around I don't think the conditions will change too much. It is not going to just be flat. Australia will be in the game if they get to 230 or 240.

    Steve Waugh has just arrived. There are unconfirmed rumours that Justin Langer has told him to pad up.

    A BBC Sport columnist is coming on to bowl.

    Nope, it's not Jamie Murray or Serena Guthrie. Mark Wood has the ball in hand.

  6. Aus 29-3published at 12 overs

    One off the over from Ben Stokes. A very solid start from the very solid man.

    Since the start of the 2016 summer no one has taken more wickets in the first 10 overs of ODIs than Chris Woakes' 46.

    Writing a sermon for Sunday morning is going to be impossible at this rate! I knew I shouldn't have agreed to preach this weekend! I entirely blame England's cricketers if the congregation leave halfway through...!

    Can you imagine if England hadn't picked Jofra Archer? There was plenty of debate. May still be, in some quarters.

    No looseners from Stokes. On the money first up.

    Ben Stokes is coming on to bowl. He does so with three wickets on the board already - here they are.

  11. Aus 28-3published at 11 overs

    There will be no chickens being counted in the England camp, for sure. Australia are like the Terminator, when you think you've done them in they're still crawling at you through a factory with no legs.

    These two have put on 14, just one from the latest Chris Woakes over.

    Don't rule Australia out just yet. England have to continue to attack.

    It's days like this where we really learn how workshy the nation is.

    I'm on a training course today via videoconference, that I was allowed to do from home. Cricket is on in the 'background' - really hoping there's no test at the end of this!

    Carey 9, Smith 4

    Well bowled Jofra, the end of the powerplay comes with another well-directed bouncer that Alex Carey sways away from. Well judged.

    Can I tentatively suggest that Australia are not making the most of the powerplay?

    These are such difficult conditions to bat in. The ball is just doing enough either way.

  20. Aus 26-3published at 9.3 overs

    Steve Smith, squared up again by Jofra Archer, slices a shot into the off side, A half-edge if you will.

    Carey looks in great touch, timing everything well at the moment.
