Drinks! England are going well so far as Ben Duckett has just reached his hundred and they are looking for a total above 350 from here easily. The onus will be on Duckett to bat through as much as he can and play his shot more freely now. The upcoming batters are more destructive for England in Jos Buttler and Liam Livingstone so they are well lined up for a good score. On the other hand, Australia have just chipped in a big wicket of Joe Root and they will be looking to get a couple of wickets in quick time to claw their way back.
