Live Score - England vs Australia
Decent bowling effort from Australia, almost bowling out England. The visitors picked up 4 quick wickets this morning before Moeen and Broad flayed some. Starc finished with a 6-fer, his career best as well. Now the big question. 67 overs left in the day. Can Australia survive Day 2 and take this game into Day 3? Can they avoid an innings defeat? The answer will be clearer soon. Overcast conditions. Broad. Finn. Wood. Stay tuned...
Wow. Cook does a Clarke. He has declared! He wants his bowlers to have a go at the Aussie batsmen just before Lunch. Could this Test possibly end tonight?
Broad goes for a big woosh outside off, misses out.
Slower delivery outside off, Broad is done in by the pace. Misses!
The batsman shoulders arms to let that one through.
Down the leg side Finn misses the flick.
Back of a length delivery outside off, Finn goes for a full fledged pull but misses out.
The batsman chooses to leave the ball outside his off stump.
Broad comes on the front and pushes at the ball. It goes off the outside edge and flies over the slips. Single at third man.
Pushed to the cover region by the batsman.
