    Much improved from Moeen Ali after his last over, where he seemed to be really struggling with that sore spinning finger...

    Target 281

    Cameron Green pushes at a full, wide delivery and the ball shoots off the outside edge.

    It's is quickly to ground, though, and past slip for two.

    Those are the only runs from Moeen Ali's over. Steady from the England off-spinner.

    Moeen Ali is going to soldier on despite those finger troubles.

    Mike Butler in Perth: How do England conjure up these conditions? Batted twice in the sunshine and bowled twice in largely overcast conditions. Amazing Australia have been competitive.

    Is that Perth in central Scotland, or Western Australia?

  6. Aus 159-5published at 50 overs

    Target 281

    Cameron Green drives handsomely through the covers for two early in the over.

    Unfazed, Jimmy Anderson hangs the ball wide of off stump a couple more times to try and tempt the right-hander but Green restrains himself.

    A single to deep third ends the over. Australia need another 122 to win.

    Nearly a gift for England.

    Short ball from Moeen Ali but Usman Khawaja spoons it up but it falls well short of mid-on.

    Now a play and a miss with a cut shot. Moeen is struggling but Khawaja failed to capitalise after that first ball.

    Daily Telegraph cricket writer Tim Wigmore: Usman Khawaja has played beautifully all game, but this tempo is putting pressure on his partners.

    There's inevitably going to be one or two like that because of his finger.

    Target 281

    Every now and again we're seeing the impact of that sore finger on Moeen Ali.

    This time it is a horrible full toss that Usman Khawaja hammers away for four.

    The atmosphere is different to last night. When Stuart Broad was charging in the febrile England fans were slamming on the metal railings as he ran in.

    There’s not as much of that. The England players are having to conduct the slow hand claps. It’s tense.

    But when the wickets do fall there’s an eruption of noise.

    Ben Stokes has positioned himself incredibly close to Cameron Green at second slip.

    That edge from Green the previous over would not have carried to a conventional second slip.

    Khawaja 42, Green 4

    So close!

    Big in-swinger from Jimmy Anderson to end the over and it stays low as well. England's appeal stops as quickly as it started as the players realise there was some bat involved from Cameron Green.

    I bumped into Moeen Ali in the car park this morning and his spinning finger looked like when you've made the mistake of wearing new shoes without socks at the start of summer. He told me it was that painful, too. How he's gripping the ball, let alone ripping it, I don't know.

    There are big explosions of emotion when England take a wicket but there still seems to be plenty of tension around Edgbaston.

    This match is still hanging in the balance.

    Here's that big wicket of Travis Head. Turn and bounce for Moeen Ali and Joe Root snaffled the catch at slip.

    Target 281

    Good over from Moeen Ali, just a single form it and he strings together five dot balls in a row to Cameron Green.

    He bowled the all-rounder through the gate in the first innings so perhaps Green is being a tad more weary this time around.
