    When the ball is moving, you should really give the seamers the crack of the whip. Stokes and woakes have been poor though.

    To be fair it's more swinging than seaming. But it wouldn't hurt to give him a try!

    Paine Lasagne has just taken a delivery from Broad, ahem, amidships.

    Rub 'em, count 'em, get on with it.

    Madness by Root. The conditions are overcast and cloudy, the ball is moving in the air and seaming off the pitch. And STILL he won't bring on the spinner. 

    It's almost as if he doesn't believe the batsman think that Leach is the best bowler in the world.

    In this series, bringing on Stokes has been the cue for runs. He is the fifth bowler at absolute best

    From Cricinfo's ball-by-ball coverage:

    38.6 Broad to Labuschagne, no run, oof, right in the spuds! Labuschagne is down... This looks to have done him more damage than the blow to the head from Archer last week! Back of a length, whirring back in past the defensive push, smack into the crown jewels

    Out comes Dr Richard Saw, who's grinning as he reaches the middle, presumably just happy that he doesn't have to perform another concussion test. Lots of wincing and grimacing as Marnus gets his equipment back into place, but he's not going to be subbed off yet

    :D

    Stokes and Woakes have leaked runs. At least try Leach to see if he can block up one end.

    That looked to be going down legside on first viewing.

    Congratulations to whoever managed to hack Hawkeye to return a "hitting stumps" verdict.

    Which of England's five bowlers do you think the Australian number eight would most like to face, in the gloom, this evening?

    At 173 for 7 I would suggest Root has had a rather good day.

    Another wicket for Archer.

    Bowl at the stumps and the batsman has to play it; if you're lucky they get an edge to the fielders behind the wicket or batsman miss, you hit.

    Bowl dross (Woakes/Stokes) and you can either leave it or have a dart.

    At the age of 20, Labuschagne was playing for Sandwich in the Kent Premier League. Five years on he is the one standing up against everything the likes of Archer and Broad throw at him. And that includes being hit in the goolies!
