  1. Eng 92-5

    I might have to put the heating back on in a minute.

    This is the Jos Buttler that England want to see it. If he carries on like this it makes his selection worthwhile.

  3. Jonathan Agnew

    You can't bowl there to Jos Buttler! He was savage with that cut shot. It was beautifully put away.

  4. Eng 92-5

    This is how England's fifth wicket fell. Since then it's been the Jos Buttler Show, which continues with a slash through point for four.

  5. Jonathan Agnew

    That was perhaps a case of Josh Hazlewood having to change his line a bit - it was a little too straight. It is a different game when the batter is coming at you.

  6. Ian Chappell
    Former Australia captain on Test Match Special

    That hasn't been done to Josh Hazlewood before - Jos Buttler is taking him on.

    If you can make these sort of innings it can change the game.

  7. Eng 87-5

    Two more, this time turned through mid-wicket. Buttler is playing a different game to the rest. 22 off 22.

  8. Ian Chappell
    Former Australia captain on Test Match Special

    Jos Buttler has been really aggressive so far. He is trying to play in that Adam Gilchrist manner and take the game away from Australia. If he can do that then he is worth his place in this England side as the keeper, despite being far from their best keeper.

    If he doesn't make a lot of runs as a batter I really don't see why you're picking Buttler.

  9. Eng 84-5

    This feels very much like the way we've always wanted Jos Buttler to play in Test cricket. Another plonk over extra cover brings three more.

  10. How's stat?!

    Andy Zaltzman
    BBC Test Match Special statistician

    This is the ninth time that Ollie Pope has got past 20 this year, but he's only once got past 35.

    Starts haven't been a problem, it is whether he can convert it to something bigger.

  11. Ian Chappell
    Former Australia captain on Test Match Special

    I like Ollie Pope's approach - he is a very aggressive player.

    I just wish he would settle down a little bit when he doesn't score for three or four balls. He looks to get a bit anxious about scoring. He has to realise there will be tough periods and you've just got to look to get a single and get down the other end.

  12. Eng 81-5

    Apropos of nothing, why have Australia got the same sponsor's logo in two places on the front of their shirts?

  13. Ian Chappell
    Former Australia captain on Test Match Special

    What you've got to do with the extra bounce is either get well forward or well back.

    Buttler was well back on that occasion and it gave him the extra time.

  14. Eng 79-5

    The another win for Buttler, a punch through point for three.

  15. Jonathan Agnew
    BBC cricket correspondent on BBC Test Match Special

    That went straight through Jos Buttler. It was a beautiful length. It might have moved slightly and Buttler just prodded at it and there wasn't much foot movement. It was a beautiful delivery.

  16. Eng 76-5

    Australia have learnt quickly, dragging the length back to Buttler. One from Cummins nips away, turning Buttler into a 'S' shape. Great battle, this.

  17. Daniel Norcross
    BBC Test Match Special

    The bat slightly turned in Buttler's hands as he played that so he got a lot of elevation and then it just stayed exactly where it landed.

  18. Eng 76-5

    And again! This time over mid-on. It plugs just before the rope, but Buttler picks up three more. He has 14 in even time.

  19. Phil Tufnell
    Former England spinner on BBC Test Match Special

    That was a good shot. It was on the rise but he just bopped it over mid-off.

  20. Daniel Norcross
    BBC Test Match Special

    That is a counter-attacking shot! It was full but Jos Buttler went after that.
