Jack Olsburgh: I do feel heretical saying this but Jimmy just does seem so placid and innocuous in Australian conditions - Robinson’s height is far more of a weapon.

We've had a whole global pandemic since his last but Steve Smith is closing on yet another Ashes hundred.

He'll still be getting them in 2050.

The players are taking a drink with an hour's play done in this session. A fair bit has happened today but after a little England fight back Australia are well in command.

Wow. Is that the start of Australia stepping on the gas?

Aus 352-5published at 130 overs

130 overs

Smith 79, Carey 30

Where has that come from? Steve Smith has been snoozing his way through this innings for the most part, batting like he is booked into an Adelaide hotel for two weeks.

Now he whacks Chris Woakes off a length way back over the leg side.

Mike: This batting performance from Australia does not end England's chances of winning the series because technically they never had any chance of winning it.

Joe Root barks some more encouragement while bending over his knees at slip. It's another accurate over from Robinson but with every block Steve Smith is looking more and more Smith-like.

There's not too much happening and I'm considering cheekily doing some Christmas shopping. I still need something for my brother. Suggestions?

If you're just joining us, it's not been all doom and gloom this morning but Australia are just starting to pull away from England again.

England started a bit of a fightback in the first session - Australia were 221-2 at the start of the day and are now 340-5.

But since the lunch break, Alex Carey has started to free his arms and yes, Steve Smith is still batting - he has 73.

Earlier, Marnus Labuschagne turned his overnight 95 into a maiden Ashes hundred. It was followed by some classic England calamity when he was caught behind by Ollie Robinson on 102 that turned out to be a no-ball.

He was eventually out lbw to Robinson for 103 and followed back by Travis Head for 18 and Cameron Green for two.

To put it simply, England need wickets.

They have got to do something about these no-balls.

Edged! In the gap. It's Steve Smith as well. Chris Woakes covers his eyes in with hands.

Oh it was a no-ball. That'll make it a little less painful.

With the development of human beings, should the stumps be increased in height?

Alex Carey tilts his helmet to allow sweat to stream from below to peak. It is that kind of day. Ollie Robinson bowls England's third consecutive maiden.

The ball isn't really coming on to the bat that nicely. It's not always been an easy pitch to bat on. If Australia lose a wicket now, England could rattle through them and have a chance to settle into their batting before the lights come on.

I said 40 minutes ago this was going to be an important hour in the match. Only one winner so far. England are searching for wickets but they look to be in the wrong postcode at the moment.

England have bowled much better today, they've bowled much fuller than yesterday and made the batsmen have to think a lot more about their shot selection.

I'll see what I can do, James. Smith's wicket does always seem to count as double. Remember at Edgbaston in the last Ashes when he dragged Australia from 120-8 to 284? Something similar today would mean game over for England.

Ollie Robinson is back. He bowled well earlier when he took the Labuschagne wicket.

England need another.

Because of their heavily reduced numbers, they are not as loud as previous tours but the sound of England fan chants provide the backing track to Anderson's latest over - another quiet, slightly short one.

"We are the army, the Barmy Army," the fans sing. A group of Aussie fans dressed as Richie Benaud are involved in some friendly banter back in their direction.

Alex Carey has come to the crease with the aim of adding some impetus. He's trying to force Jimmy Anderson off his length.
