Root is a bloody good batsman,
I think he needs to relinquish the captaincy, take some pressure off & he'll churn out hundred after a hundred.

Starc with the smarts to correct himself mid spell, gets his wrist more behind the ball, Root knicks off and Carey reads “Regulation” all the way into his gloves.

Good bowling by Starc.

Good luck finding a replacement. Jos is the only viable option tactically but he's never made it as a test cricketer.

Maybe he needs more assistance from his V/C, or even others around him.
He's gonna need a psych soon!

horrible shot in the last over before tea

Be interested to see how the Aussies tackle this wicket and what a good score is.

Reckon Anderson will excel on this pitch later today
