Right.
What have you got for us, England?
The players are on their way back out after lunch.

Media caption, England denied wicket after Stokes drops catch during celebration
Postpublished at 13:58 British Summer Time 31 July 2023
England started so well through Chris Woakes, and it then went flat.
It was the type of atmosphere where you just knew one wicket would change things, spark things back to life.
It's now gone even flatter after England created that opportunity, but let it slip.
But Ben Stokes has rallied his troops before. Can he do it again?

John: Sloppy cricket, particularly catching, has cost England the chance to win the series. It's fitting that it looks like it will cost England the final match too.
Matt: Ben Stokes has had an absolute mare there. England really don't help themselves.
AP: I would say "that's the series" but Australia can't lose it. England have lost the vast majority of the key moments in this series, and today is no different. Australia are a superior team in every department.

Thanks, Callum.
This series, eh?

Time for me to go and get some lunch.
Ffion Wynne is coming back and will bring you more on that Ben Stokes drop.
Enjoy.

Here are the three wickets that England picked up.
Chris Woakes was superb again.

Most sessions in this series have swung one way and then the other.
That morning session was the same.
England were superb in the opening hour, taking three wickets, but an unbroken stand of 69 between Steve Smith and Travis Head has put Australia back in control.

Unfortunately I think that may be game over. Devastating.

I understand why that was given not out. But when you see players take catches in the slips and they throw the ball, them catches are given out before the body is in control? What’s the difference?

There has been a bit of a glitch in our website so at the top of this page it said 'Australia win by seven wickets'.
I mean, it's not looking unlikely, but we're not quite at that stage yet.
It has now been corrected.

Sir Alastair Cook
Former England captain on BBC Test Match SpecialThe umpires have got it right. There's no question in my mind. Ben Stokes knew it, he put his head and eyes to the ground.
I don't think I've heard the crowd be so quiet during a DRS review.

I don't think Stokes is attempting to celebrate/throw the ball up in the air.
His arm has just ended up smashing into his right knee as they both go back to their natural position.
We'll have a video for you to decide yourselves shortly.

That is incredibly sloppy cricket from the England Captain. Take the catch…hold the catch.
Stevo in Miami
Umpire's decision completely fair enough, he wasn't on control of the ball! Not sure why he reviewed it to be honest.
Tim in Bristol
After the Starc incident why is any fielder throwing the ball away before they have completed a catch. That's just stupid from Stokes and may cost us the match. I guess it's instinctive but they need to learn.

Ben Stokes is having an animated conversation with the umpires as everyone makes their way off the field.
Umpire Joel Wilson is flapping his arms about and remonstrating back.
I think it is about whether England lose a review for that appeal or not.

Aus 238-3
Another absorbing session of Ashes cricket.
Australia need another 146 runs to win the Ashes 3-1.
England need seven wickets to draw the series 2-2.
Are there more twists to come?

As Ben Stokes right arm comes down it catches his right knee, which is also on its way down.
He knew straight away.
