Here come Ben Stokes and Ben Duckett as Jerusalem plays over the Lord's loud speaker.

Are we in for another miracle? Or will this be done and dusted by lunch?

Not long to go now...

Fraser Stewart, head of cricket at the MCC, speaking on BBC Test Match Special about the Micthell Starc 'catch': "Not out. From a law perspective, it was pretty clear that it was not out.

"You saw how quickly Marais Erasmus made the decision as the third umpire, he only needed one look at it.

"A catch is not just a moment in time, it is actually a passage of play form when a fielder first touches the ball to when they have complete control of the ball and their own movement.

"In Starc's case yesterday, he was diving, took the ball very cleanly - that was fine - but as he dived he had his palm facing down and the ball clearly scraped along the ground. Everyone saw that.

"The ball clearly touched the ground so the only question is: did he have control of his movement by then? And the fact he was still sliding and diving suggests that he quite clearly didn't.

"If he'd had his hand the other way with his palm facing down and the ball facing up, there is a far greater risk that the ball will actually fall out of his hand. If that happens, we'd all agree it wouldn't be out, the catch wouldn't have been completed.

"By having the ball facing down it was easier for him to hold onto it but then it scraped along the ground."

England opener Ben Duckett, speaking to BBC Test Match Special: "It's certainly a challenge and an exciting one. Most of the pressure is on them.

"It's going to be a cracking day, the sun is out and it's good conditions to bat so I think if we can start well, chip away at the total and keep wickets in hand for later, it should be a good day.

"It's tough to completely switch off. It's obvious what we have to do, I don't even know how many we need. That's how my brain is working.

"Right now it is about starting again this morning, trying to get myself back in and fingers crossed the pitch is going to be quite nice to bat on today.

"If we can put on a partnership, you never know."

I'm sure it will be Pat Cummins and Mitchell Starc for Australia and Ben Duckett and Ben Stokes have to survive that opening burst.

Their job is to settle the dressing room in the first half an hour.

There has been lots of chatting on the outfield. Joe Root and Ben Stokes have been in conversation with Sir Alastair Cook, Jonny Bairstow with Eoin Morgan. Glenn McGrath was over with the Aussies a little earlier.

Our friends at CricViz have picked out some stats ahead of day five...

• If Australia win, they will close the gap on England for victories in the Ashes in England. Both teams would have won 53 matches in England.
• Ben Stokes needs 72 runs to score 500 runs against Australia in the fourth innings. He has more runs in the fourth innings against Australia than in any other innings of the game.
• Cummins needs three wickets for 20 fourth innings wickets against England. He currently averages 19.76 against England in the fourth innings.

Alastair Cook says Australia will be wary of Ben Stokes given his previous England heroics.

Some cloud has been bubbling up at Lord's but I don't think it will bring any showers. So just fair weather cloud coming and going.

There will be some spells of sunshine later on this afternoon. It will be dry with a westerly breeze with top temperatures of 21/22.

So all in all a pretty nice day with no interruptions.

Answer: Tuffers

Phil Tufnell, at the Oval in 1997, was the last England bowler to take five (or more) top-four Australian wickets in a home men’s Ashes Test (Matthew Elliott, Mark Taylor, Greg Blewett in the first innings, and Mark Waugh in both).

Before Tongue, only New Zealand's Neil Wagner (at the MCG in December 2019) had previously dismissed both Smith and Warner in both innings of a Test, in the 88 Tests the two have played together.

In women’s cricket, Anya Shrubsole achieved the feat at Canterbury in 2015, and another member of the TMS team, Isa Guha, took six top-four Aussie wickets in the victorious 2008 Test in Australia.

Right, time for today's ZaltzQuiz answer...

Breaking news: the orange juice in the Lord's media centre has been switched from smooth to bits. A sure sign things will not go well today.

Glenn McGrath has not calmed down about that catch overnight. He’s still convinced it should have been out.

Answer coming up at 10:30 BST, David!

Throughout this Ashes series we're going to be getting the Australia perspective from podcasters 'The Grade Cricketer'.

Their latest video discusses the "true bravery" of Nathan Lyon in coming out to bat despite a calf injury.

I'd like to think it would be the same, Andy.

The inverted commas were used because Duckett was ultimately given not out, so it was ruled to not be a legitimate catch. And we explained the laws so readers could better understand how the umpires came to their decision.

Of course, this game is about opinions too. But isn't that what makes it great?

Lots of shouts of “come on, Jonny” as Jonny Bairstow walks through a tunnel of fans behind the media centre to the nets.

He gives a little nod of appreciation.
