Ready for the off
The players are out and Steve Smith is menacingly throwing his arms around in readiness, like a boxer preparing for battle.
So who will land the knockout punches on day three?
It’s humid in Brisbane and there’s chances of showers today. Geoff Boycott has been out on the pitch and says there are cracks on it that are starting to open.Conditions in England’s favour but as the old cliche goes, the first hour is crucial.

Get set for an 11.58pm start
Morning, afternoon or evening to you – wherever you are in the world.
On day two we had a proposal in a pool… and some cricket. England were skittled after a positive start and ended up making a slightly below-par 302.
That score looked slightly better when Jimmy Anderson and Moeen Ali got stuck in to the Aussie top order but Steve Smith and Shaun Marsh have rebuilt and I have the Aussies very, very slightly on top. They trail England by 137 runs with six wickets remaining.
Play starts today at the 11.58pm. Thank the Lord for those extra two minutes.
