    Tell me a more wholehearted cricketer. I'll wait.

  2. Aus 33-1published at 12 overs

    Mark Wood ends up tumbling onto his knee again as Marnus Labuschagne pulls a couple through backward square.

    Labuschagne has changed his set up to Wood, I think, to try and avoid nicking him behind.

    Either someone has turned the effects mic up or Ollie Pope talks a lot more than Jos Buttler and Alex Carey.

  4. Aus 27-1published at 11 overs

    Marnus Labuschagne cracks a single through cover from Jack Leach's first ball, before Marcus Harris hustles a shot through a diving fielder at mid-wicket.

    Jack Leach is going to have a (quite early, you'd have to say) bowl.

    It has been a mixed morning for England.

    Australia are not getting away here. They started with a positive frame of mind but they are not getting away quickly.

    There is still a lot of time left though. England will be batting under pressure at some stage. A lot of pressure.

  8. Postpublished at 00:46 Greenwich Mean Time 8 January 2022

    Australia lead by 147, which is a lot, but not insurmountable.

    I am quite interested in Ian Chappell's theory that Sam Billings should have set off earlier.

    It would have meant setting off at midnight, getting here for 8-9am and having some breakfast before going out to keep and being told by Ian Chappell that you're not a very good keeper!

    Time for a drink.

    Here's how Mark Wood dismissed David Warner, incidentally.

  11. Aus 25-1published at 10 overs

    Mark Wood strays a little too full to Marcus Harris, and the Australia opener turns it nicely away through square leg for four.

    Jolly Nose is a superb name!

    Why does it exist if there is nothing there? How extraordinary.

    Jolly Nose, which Sam Billings is close to approaching, has a population of zero apparently!

  15. Aus 20-1published at 9 overs

    Marnus Labuschagne seems to much prefer facing Stuart Broad, as he steps forward and works him nicely through mid-wicket for a smattering of runs.

    I bet Sam Billings wishes he'd got here in time to keep in this innings. Ollie Pope is showing Jos Buttler up at the moment.

    What a journey for Sam Billings to make. It's not often you get the opportunity to do that.

  19. Aus 15-1published at 8 overs

    I'm not sure Marnus Labuschagne likes facing Mark Wood first up.

    He hooks, aerially down to fine leg, where the ball drops short of an advancing Jack Leach.

  20. Aus 14-1published at 7.3 overs

    Oh! There's blood all down the front of Mark Wood's left trouser leg, from where his knee has been hitting the floor as he falls in his follow-through.

    Not that it's distracting Wood, who whistles through a rising 91mph delivery to keep Labuschagne on his toes, before almost having the same man caught at leg slip.
