    Right, we're ready to go.

    Pat Cummins has the ball in hand and it will be Haseeb Hameed facing up.

    Let's play.

    This will prove to be a fascinating 20 minutes. There are nine overs but I don't think we'll see all of them. Pat Cummins was already out on the field warming up before England's players had come off it. It feels a significant time in the game coming up. Should be a riveting.

    Imagine how nervous Haseeb Hameed and Zak Crawley are feeling in the England changing room?

    They will know that they are going to face an absolute barrage from Australia. It will be quick and hostile.

    Can they survive the 20 minutes of play that we'll have left? There are technically nine overs left, but we're unlikely to get through those in the time.

    That last hour almost felt like England were going through the motions waiting for Australia to declare. It has been Usman Khawaja's day.

    What a shot to finish the innings from Nathan Lyon. Very much one-day cricket. Deep in your crease and slog it into the on side.

  9. Postpublished at 07:02 Greenwich Mean Time 6 January 2022

    That's really nice from Craig Overton.

    He made sure he got the ball back from the crowd after that six and then pegged it over to Stuart Broad to make sure the England bowler had the ball to raise as he walked off.

    Broad has a smile on his face. Maybe for the first time in a month...

  10. Declarationpublished at 07:00 Greenwich Mean Time 6 January 2022

    Pat Cummins has called time but not until Nathan Lyon has whacked Stuart Broad for SIX!

    Australia finish on 416-8.

    England will have 20 minutes to survive tonight.

  11. Aus 408-4published at 133.4 overs

    A swing and miss from Nathan Lyon.

    Pat Cummins is tying his shoelaces and doing some stretches in the Aussie changing room.

    Four more.

    Nathan Lyon clinks Stuart Broad down the ground to move to eight from four balls.

    The counter-attack.

    I reckon this is all a bluff! Mind games. They will just bat the 12 overs.

    There's a declaration on its way I think...

    Stuart Broad's 19th five-wicket haul for England in his 151st Test match. He has only had two five-wicket hauls in his last 23 Tests and three in his last 35.

  16. Aus 403-8published at 133 overs

    Australia changing room update: Nobody is now sat on the balcony. Alex Carey has his baggy green cap on.

    If you're an England fan maybe disappear - save yourself the pain.

    Nathan Lyon whips Mark Wood for four to take Australia past the 400 mark. One more nail hammered in.

    The first five-for for an England player on this tour which gives you an indication of their fortunes in this Ashes series.

    A bit of wobble from Stuart Broad. It's hit the pitch and jagged back in. Usman Khawaja, 137 from 260 balls, welcome back to Test match cricket.

  20. wicket

    WICKETpublished at 131.5 overs

    Khawaja b Broad 137 (Aus 398-8)

    Stuart Broad has five!

    Absolutely brilliant from England's 35-year-old bowler. He finds a little bit of seam and wobble and it goes through the drive of Usman Khawaja and crashes into the stumps. That is England's first five-wicket haul of the series.

    An excellent innings from Khawaja though. What a return to the side after two years out. He soaks in the applause and raises his bat, doing a full 360 degree turn to the SCG ground, as he walks off.
