Live Reporting

Ffion Wynne, Callum Matthews and Timothy Abraham

  1. Fifty partnership up between Brook and Woakes.

    How are your nerves?

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

    I have been happy with this pitch. It's quick and bouncy which has offered something for the bowlers.

  3. Eng 221-6

    Need 30 runs to win

    The short stuff is coming.

    Given England's recent record against it, it's not filling me with much joy.

    But what do I know?!

    Harry Brook pulls for two, before slashing the next past point for four!

  4. Matthew Henry
    BBC Sport at Headingley

    Mad rush from most of the press box to the toilets at drinks.

    Can't cope.

  5. It's been another ridiculous session of cricket.

    And it's why we love it.

  6. Eng 214-6

    Need 37 runs to win

    The England balcony is chaos right now.

    Brendon McCullum is pretty much impossible to read behind those sunglasses that never seem to leave his head.

    Jonny Bairstow is still in his whites.

    Ben Stokes is doing a crossword.

    Paul Collingwood is drumming his fingers on the side of the wall, and that's drinks.

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

    How important were the last two wickets for Australia in their second innings? They put on 54 runs having been blown away for hardly anything in the first innings.

  8. Keep going, young man.

    (I mean, he's two years younger than me.)

  9. Eng 211-6

    Need 40 runs to win

    Don't go there, Glenn. Just don't.

    And on that note, Harry Brook pulls firmly for four!

    That'll do nicely.

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

    Another day, another game of cricket. It's exciting isn't it? Are there any twists and turns left now? We were right on the edges of our seats in 2019 and it could be the same again here.

    Trying out a new blood pressure monitor at home while listening to TMS on the radio. No wonder it says I have severe hypertension.

    Roger from Dorchester

  12. Eng 204-6

    Careful, Harry.

    He's tempted into hooking a Pat Cummins short ball but it thankfully lands safe in front of deep square.

    Let's not go there, England. Please.

  13. Sam Drury
    BBC Sport cricket writer at Headingley

    A man in Gareth Southgate fancy dress leads a chorus of ‘cricket’s coming home again’.

    I wish I had his confidence, I’m a bag of nerves!

  14. Eng 203-6

    Need 48 runs to win

    Just a single from a tidy Mitch Marsh over.

    WinViz has England at 78%.

    I can confirm it does not feel like that.

    This is unbearable. Tell me, do the Test averages of the incoming batsmen get England home?!

    Ian, who has no fingernails...

    Going into this Test Mark Wood averaged 16.43, Stuart Broad 18.16 and Ollie Robinson 13.34. Make that 47 runs...

  16. Eng 202-6

    Need 49 runs to win

    A reminder that the afternoon session is going until 16:10 BST today.

    Tense.

    Couldn't cope so opted for a net session with my son Henry....TMS in the pocket....batting the current scenario out!

    Rob, Cardiff

  18. Eng 201-6

    Consider a few more fingernails gone.

    Another leading edge from a short ball lands safely in the outfield.

    I'm not sure how much longer I can do this.

  19. Matthew Henry
    BBC Sport at Headingley

    There are hands on heads and fingernails being bitten in the press box, nevermind the stands.

  20. Eng 200-6

    Listen to that!

    A single from Harry Brook brings up England's 200, and Headingley erupts.
