    That's brilliant fielding from Tom Curran. He's saved a certain four there. That's as valuable as they come.

  2. Aus 291-6

    Target 303

    Brilliant stop at mid-off by Tom Curran. Turns four into one. Carey has 106. 12 off 10.

  3. Aus 290-6

    Target 303

    Leg side. Single to Cummins. 13 off 11.

  4. Aus 289-6

    Need 14 from 12 balls

    It's Archer.

    Come on, Jofra.

    My husband is watching a programme on Roman roads and I've just ordered some Christmas cards to relieve the tension. Come on England!

  6. Aus 289-6

    Need 14 from 12

    Cummins drives a wide googly to keep the strike. 14 from two overs. Australia will want to make a big dent in it in the 49th. Funny things can happen in the last over.

  7. James Anderson
    England bowler on Test Match Special

    It is a glimmer of hope for England. Someone using their head would have knocked it around a bit more than Glenn Maxwell did then, it was just a hack across the line.

  8. Aus 288-6

    Need 15 from 13

    Single. Cummins to get his first look at Rashid. He must have pad rash.

  9. Aus 287-6

    Target 303

    Pat Cummins arrives, but he's not on strike. Carey sweeps for two.

  10. Charles Dagnall
    BBC Test Match Special commentator

    Goodness me! Tom Curran really juggled that around and England hearts were in mouth but he managed to cling on.

    Australia surely can't collapse like they did in the second ODI.

    WICKET

    Maxwell c T Curran b Rashid 108 (Aus 285-6)

    Can you believe it?!

    Glenn Maxwell is suckered in. Slow and wide from Adil Rashid, another top edge, just about held by Tom Curran at short third man.

    Morgan's gamble pays off. Game on!

  12. Aus 285-5

    Need 18 from 16 balls

    Top edge! Behind the keeper for two.

  13. James Anderson
    England bowler on Test Match Special

    It's a brave move from Eoin Morgan. He's bowling from the same end too so Glenn Maxwell will have that short boundary again.

  14. Aus 282-5

    Need 21 from 18 balls

    It will be Adil Rashid. Short boundary on Maxwell's leg side. Strap in.

  15. James Anderson
    England bowler on Test Match Special

    Both of these batsman have had a life and both of them have made the most of it.

  16. Aus 282-5

    Need 21 from 18 balls

    If England win this, it would be an even better recovery than Sunday night. Adil Rashid is getting loose. What a gamble from Eoin Morgan that would be. Betting the house on the leggie.

  17. Charles Dagnall
    BBC Test Match Special commentator

    Alex Carey has been on a rotten run of form, and granted he was caught off a no ball, but he's made England pay.

  18. 100 runs

    100 for Alex Carey

    Aus 278-5

    Superb knock. From 106 balls. Australia were 73-5, but Carey and Maxwell are putting together one of the great partnerships.

    England bowler on Test Match Special

    Australia are cruising. Nine times out of 10 they would get home from here. It's up to someone from the England team to do something special, find a good ball, a perfect yorker or a good slower ball that deceives them.

  20. 6 runs

    Aus 277-5

    Target 303

    This game might be up. Carey pulls Woakes for six. He's on 99...
