Stokes is emphatic on that, just before England are emphatic that Tongue has got Weatherald for lbw. At least, they make emphatic sounds, but Weatherald is safe. Tongue tries to avoid giving the batter width but gives him width, and he duly helps himself to eight runs from the second over, including a cut through cover to the ropes. Nice stuff. He’s confident.
Head, meanwhile, is still settling in and endures some Carse attack before swinging and missing more than once against Tongue.
Australia 0-27 (Head 14, Weatherald 12), need 133 runs
