Double double from the Aussies.

Marnus out for 204 and Smith 200*

Australia

332/3 54 overs for England.

This would be a decent score when you’re approaching lunch on day 2.

Looks like they're playing on a feather bed. Nothing happening, and England in line to score close on 500 runs for the day.
They might get right up the list below...

Apparently it gets dark there at 5pm, so might be 10 to 15 overs short.

Looks like the England bowling attack is less good than Pakistan's, so probably want 650 plus. They may end up fielding for 3 days.

422/3 (66 overs)

Run rate 6.39

Pakistan are getting a solid work-over by the Poms.

They will be feeling a wee bit better for this position than their recent tour in Australia.

Confidence restored!

Pakistan have the better batting line-up and England's bowling line-up is weak looking.
 
Haven't watched any of this Pakistan / England match so far but either this is the best batting wicket in the history of cricket, the bowling is just truly awful or this field has the smallest boundaries ever!

Root must be feeling filthy. Getting out for 23 when everyone else has gotten a 100.

Ja, four out of the top 5 got 100+.

Looks like Stokes is going for the fastest 100 record.
