Another 3 sessions like that (but maybe with a few more runs once the bowlers tire) and we'll be ok.

I really hope he doesn’t get out straight after lunch, but this innings alone should be enough to win Rory an extended stay.

No jinxing please.

More top umpiring.

Heads up, England into one-day mode!

Hmm, nice clutch of boundaries but lets hope they don't lose their heads...

Shouldn’t be a problem, Head’s playing for the other side.

This is proper cricket, absolutely enthralling session (made more so because we all know that England can go from 1 down to 4 down in the blink of an eye).

Don't worry though, because we've got Joe Denly.

Can’t wait for his inevitable Dentury.

Jocular Joe's Jaunt ends.

Here comes the wobble...

Yes Burnsy!

GET IN

And get rid of the moustache, it doesn’t suit you. On you go.

When was the last time an English opener, that wasn't Alastair Cook, batted an entire day?

A good days cricket, with a little help from officials and Australia being reluctant to review!

I think only Root has scored a home ashes century as an opener since Strauss.

England need 400, both for this game and confidence overall.
