    You can see signs of Bairstow and Morgan trying to book in for a big score here.

    Pat Cummins starts with a wide - a harsh one down the leg side - before being flicked to the fine-leg boundary after bowling on Eoin Morgan's pads.

    There are just a few days to go until the 2020 Indian Premier League kicks off in the United Arab Emirates.

    And Royal Challengers Bangalore captain Virat Kohli shows just how meticulous he is with his preparation...

    Most of the players in this game are on a charter plane to the IPL at 7am tomorrow - both the England and Australia players together.

    One-day cricket is about finishing off your over. Josh Hazlewood is unable to do that as he strays down the leg side and Jonny Bairstow tickles it fine for four more.

    That turns an over of three into an over of seven for England.

    It is quite undignified for poor Labuschagne, who has had to go climbing over the covers to find the ball after Bairstow spanked it for six.

    I expect to see more of that - Jonny Bairstow just helped that on its way. If you get it aeriel, the ball should fly away.

    Jonny Bairstow smashes first six of England innings against Australia

    With the swing gone, Mitchell Starc is out of the attack and replaced by Pat Cummins.

    Jonny Bairstow pulls to the short boundary for six before crashing a drive for four. Bairstow is looking somewhere near to the his belligerent best today.

    Here's how the England Test captain fell.

    Yes, it's a technical flaw that happens fairly regularly but Mitchell Starc has got many a batsman like that...

    Hi, me again the Joe Root cynic. Are people finally getting on board with my view that he really isn't all that good? I didn't get into following England cricket properly until the 2017 Ashes tour and he literally hasn't been good since then. That was nearly three years ago!

  11. Eng 37-2published at 6 overs

    England have let Josh Hazlewood bowl to them in the first two games. He's bowled a Test match line and length but they are being much more pro-active today and looking to get him off his line and length.

    Eoin Morgan demonstrates that as he advances down the pitch and drives to the long boundary, before absolutely crunching a pull shot, that Adam Zampa at fine leg can't get to despite it only going a yard or two to his right.

    A mis-timed short-arm jab brings Bairstow three more too. England are recovering well here.

    Today was the 13th time England have found themselves 0-2 - it has happened eight times in Tests, three times in ODis and twice in T20 cricket. It is, however, the first time they have been 0-2 after two balls.

  13. Eng 25-2published at 5 overs

    Bairstow 16, Morgan 7

    It looks like the early swing that Mitchell Starc was finding has disappeared already. That's the problem with the white ball, it does very little, if anything.

    England are going to counter-attack here, I reckon. Morgan picks up three with a mistimed drive before Jonny Bairstow picks up a couple of boundaries - the second of which comes via a top-edged pull as the Yorkshireman looks to pull out of the shot.

    It's been a strange few days in the bubble with no cricket. I've eaten a quite frankly disgraceful amount of food and walked around Old Trafford a lot. The evenings have seen us be serenaded by the guitar players in the group - Andy Zaltzman is a wizard - and a socially-distanced game of concourse cricket, in which the same Zaltzman smashed my nail to bits with a powerful cover drive. It has actually been lovely.

    Simon Hutchins: Jason Roy's shot to the first ball he faced certainly had an end of term feel to it!

  16. Eng 13-2published at 4 overs

    Josh Hazlewood is just throwing one bad ball in there every over at the moment. He drops a tad short and Jonny Bairstow pulverises a cut shot to the short boundary.

    Bairstow's two boundaries have been lovely so far.

    I literally refuse to get drawn into a debate about Joe Root's future in this England team.

    He was England's top run scorer in the World Cup 12 months ago and hasn't stopped playing cricket all summer. It would be pretty unfair to judge him on this series.

    And, even if we were he was England's second highest run scorer in Sunday's victory.

    Mark Burt: Root plays around a straightish ball and yet another failure to go with the many others this year. Yes he has a fantastic record but he is surviving on past performances alone.

    I had a day off yesterday. It consisted of clearing out an old shed and dismantling a couple of rabbit hutches. I say dismantling, it was more whacking with a mallet and pulling pieces in the wrong direction until it fell apart/parts came off as I desired.

    Thankfully my swings with the mallet were more accurate than Eoin Morgan's in that over as he twice misses with attempted cut shots.

    Just a wide off the over.
