If they'd gone bang, bang, knocked them over and gone out there, you just feel slightly different about the day that's ahead.

So that was a poor start.

I think when looking at the way that England batted, you have to acknowledge that they have tried, they've really tried to bat in the way that people have been asking them to play.

Whether that's been a good thing because of what it's done to them, their mental state, and they're being tentative perhaps, but they've largely fallen to good bowling.

And I think Australia's bowling today was outstanding.

Crawley got a good ball for nine, Duckett turned.

Ollie Pope, I feel really sad about that dismissal because I was talking to him at the end just now.

He can bat, he can play.

I've seen him score some wonderful hundreds.

Why has he been reduced to that sort of shot play?

Something's gone wrong somewhere with his development, with his coaching, with the environment, whatever it is.

He's a better player than flicking Nathan Lyon just back in the side, straight to mid-wicket for three and walking off.

And then it just opens the doors, doesn't it?

Because Duckett got one in the same over that turned a bit.

You can't do that at number three.

You can't, and unless he scores something remarkable in second innings, I think that will be it, certainly for the wild Rolly Pope.

They'll have to make a change, and I don't know how good Jacob Bethel is.

No one does, really, because he's hardly paid any cricket.

But he's here as a replacement, and I just think that if England lose here, they'll have to make a change.

And that's a real shame.
