53.1
Nathan Smith to Josh Tongue, out Bowled!! Third bowler to take a five-for in the match. Angle in, nip away and it accounts for Tongue who is opened up in defence. He's rooted to the crease and beaten on the outside edge as it clips the top of off.

Atkinson to Tom Latham, out Caught by Harry Brook!! Gone this time. What a start for England and Gus Atkinson. 138ks teasing full delivery outside off. Latham is all hands on the drive and sends a healthy outside-edge straight to Brook at second slip. Went at head height and Brook snaffles it comfortably.

Atkinson to Devon Conway, FOUR Conway has a smile. Looks more of a relief than anything else. 138ks full outside off, Conway leans into the drive and slices it off the outer half in the gap to the right of backward point

Ollie Robinson to Rachin Ravindra, out Bowled!! The variable bounce at play again. Slightly back of a length around off, keeps low and goes under the bat in defence before crashing into off. Nipped away as well for good measure. The dismissals of Bethell and Jamie Smith come to mind from yesterday. Pretty similar, although this maybe didn't keep as low those ones.
Rachin Ravindra b Ollie Robinson 8(21) [4s-1]
19.3
Ollie Robinson to Daryl Mitchell, out Lbw!! Finger goes up in a flash but Mitchell has gone for the review. Keeper coming up to the stumps has paid off immediately for England. It's on a good length, nips back and crashes into the pad as he plays across the line. Ball-tracking says it's clipping leg stump and Mitchell is on his way.
