  1. Aus 34-1

    Warner 15, Labuschagne 10

    The Australia batters are looking a bit more comfortable now. Credit to this pair for grinding it out - England's batters could learn a few lessons here.

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

    When I started bowling no-balls I put my marker back two metres and was still overstepping.

  3. Aus 34-1

    It's almost like Stokes is giving too much - he bowls a wide and a no-ball and then continues to bowl too short. It's too easy for Labuschagne to get behind it and defend.

  4. Aus 30-1

    Warner 14, Labuschagne 10

    Big over for Australia as they take five runs from it.

    Despite the scoring rate, Australia have battled hard and they're getting themselves set for the day. It still looks good for batting - a wicket here would be a huge boost for England.

  5. Aus 27-1

    Warner clips one easily away for four as Broad drifts onto his pads.

    Just the second boundary of the day.

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

    It is a funny old game. England have been a bit short. Australia, especially David Warner, has let the ball come and is not looking to hit the ball.

    Only Australia captains bring their blazer with them so Steve Smith hasn't got his with him here.

    He had to wear Pat Cummins' blazer for the toss. It must've looked enormous on him!

  8. Aus 25-1

    Stokes backs up the other four seamers by conceding just a single from his first over. Proper contest, this.

    Warner has nine from 50 balls.

  9. Here comes Ben Stokes.

  10. Steven Finn
    Former England bowler on BBC Test Match Special

    Broad's angle from wide of the crease is forcing Labuschagne to play. Unlike the other bowlers, Broad has made the conscious effort to get the ball fuller. That has produced those erroneous shots.

  11. Aus 24-1

    Warner 8, Labuschagne 10

    Three consecutive beauties from Broad beat Labuschagne's outside edge, drawing the batter into the shot with that full length.

    Broad brings out the double teapot and a sarcastic smile, not for the first time today.

  12. Aus 23-1

    Broad overpitches and Warner thumps it down the ground for three. They debate an all-run four but Ben Stokes is just too fast and his throw is just too good.

    Oh, and it's a no-ball.

  13. Stuart Broad returns to the attack. Interesting.

    Steve Tredup: England should have a permanent banner hanging off their balcony that says "Pitch it up more."

  15. Aus 20-1

    Make that 11 maidens in 17 overs. David Warner has five from 44 balls.

    I think I need a snack. Or is it too early?

  16. How's stat?!

    Andy Zaltzman
    BBC Test Match Special statistician

    There have been 10 maidens in 16 overs.

  17. Aus 20-1

    Another maiden. Another wicket to go with it would be nice for England.

  18. Aus 20-1

    This is a good scrap. England aren't giving much away but Warner and Labuschagne aren't backing down either.

    Labuschagne concludes the over with his lightsaber-swipe-leave thing. Or should I say, Steve Smith's lightsaber-swipe-leave thing?

  20. Aus 20-1

    Woakes releases some frustration from being whacked for four by ... bowling a wide.

    I mean, it was a bouncer that just bounced too much. The first real loss of discipline from England so far.
