Well Mr Warne has rung the bell, the players are out, and we're off.

Woakes should be bowling here with Broad, Archer is not the bowler for these conditions.

Just don't seem to be troubling either batsman at all.
Well, this is shit.
Looking a bit ominous. Khawaja in particular looks comfortable.

It’s alright everyone, the rain will save us
The worst thing about this ashes so far is how the England players just don’t seem up for it, the Aussies look like a determined and discipline team whereas we look flat.

JOFRA traps Bancroft... it's being reviewed... 1st test wicket for Archer??
It looked good, no bat... possibly just high? but given... so umpires call is enough!

YES Jofra
And our Nemesis is in
22.5 Archer to Bancroft, OUT, been given lbw! But Bancroft has reviewed. The no-ball is just okay. Was it high or outside the line? There's no bat. Nipped back nicely off the seam as well. Umpire's call on hitting the bails. Archer has his first! Big celebrations for him
CT Bancroft lbw b Archer 13 (66b 1x4 0x6)
Aus 60-2
Here comes Smith... BOOOOoooooooo!!!

I think that must be the most MARGINAL decision I have ever seen.
Avoided being a no-ball by about 5mm, and the ball just clipping the bails!
We'll take it though!
