Jonny Bairstow 139(92)
34.1
Agar to Bairstow, out Caught by Jhye Richardson!! Relief for Australia? Not sure. Bairstow is gone for a magnificent 139. The Trent Bridge crowd are on their feet to give him a standing ovation. Raises his bat and storms off as a man who has just won the battle for his side. Fired in flat and at the stumps, Bairstow is quick to transfer his weight back and play the pull, does not keep it down and picks out Richardson perfectly at deep mid-wicket. Struck it flat and hard, either side would have fetched him four. Bairstow c Jhye Richardson b Agar 139(92) [4s-15 6s-5]
33.6
Stanlake to Hales, 2 runs, another skier that drops nowhere close to the fielder. Banged in short and in the mood Hales is in, he takes it on and cue-ends the hook towarsds to deep mid-wicket. The fielder from square leg tidies up
33.3
Stanlake to Hales, 1 run, back over the wicket and speared in full outside off, Hales reaches out and squeezes it to sweeper cover
32.5
Agar to Hales, leg byes, 1 run, skids on after pitching and beats Hales on the flick, rapped around leg-stump and the ball rolls to short third
32.1
Agar to Bairstow, FOUR, nothing is working for Australia. Not their bowling changes. Not their bowling. Not their field placements. Agar had a long discussion with Maxwell before bowling this delivery and the result does not change. Bairstow plonks his front foot across and sweeps it over backward square leg
31.6
Andrew Tye to Hales, FOUR, Paine is lost for options. He doesn't know who can stop this. Everyone has gone for runs. Short and Tye's pace is not going to threaten the batsman, Hales pulls it over mid-wicket and to the unprotected boundary
31.2
Andrew Tye to Bairstow, FOUR, will this ever stop? Don't think so. Full delivery outside off, Bairstow uses his fast hands to clobber it over extra cover. One bounce and over the rope
31.1
Andrew Tye to Bairstow, no run, short of length and held up on the surface a bit, Bairstow checks his back foot block
30.6
Agar to Hales, FOUR, Hales shows Bairstow how it is done. Shuffles across his sticks and then uses the pace of Agar to paddle it to the left of short fine leg. No one in the deep to stop that
30.4
Agar to Hales, 1 run, punched to long-on
30.2
Agar to Hales, 1 run, tossed up and Hales slog sweeps it on the bounce to deep mid-wicket, just a single

29.3
Stoinis to Bairstow, no run, driven hard and straight to cover
29.2
Stoinis to Bairstow, FOUR, and he nails the pull to deep mid-wicket. Stoinis is not the quickest and even marginally short sits up for the batsman, small swivel from Bairstow and he thumps it nonchalantly to the fence
29.1
Stoinis to Bairstow, SIX, just two off the previous over and Bairstow thinks he has to catch up. First ball and he gives himself some room to go through the line, gets the perfect length to slot it into the long-off crowd
28.6
Agar to Hales, no run, makes room and drives the flighted delivery inside out towards cover, can't get it past Maxwell there. He dives to his left and makes the stop
28.4
Agar to Bairstow, no run, pushed to the left of Agar and he does the tidying up job himself, moves across and dives to stop
28.3
Agar to Hales, leg byes, 1 run, shout for LBW, but nothing part a leg-bye signal from umpire Dharmasena. Slides on with the arm, Hales is deep in the crease to nudge it into the on-side, misses and is struck on the back thigh. Height was an issue and HawkEye confirms that
27.2
Stoinis to Hales, 1 run, change of pace and Hales delays his shot for a second, bunts it wide of cover
26.6
Andrew Tye to Hales, no run, good length ball and Hales hammers the on-the-up drive straight to mid-off
26.2

26.1
Andrew Tye to Bairstow, no run, full and outside off, driven hard and straight to mid-off
25.6
D Arcy Short to Hales, FOUR, Hales decides to use his feet to counter Short. Races down and gets close to the delivery, might be a touch too close as well, but the strong bottom hand takes over and drills the drive to the long-off fence
25.4
D Arcy Short to Bairstow, SIX, hundred for Bairstow. Number six for him. Business as usual; fourth in six innings. Missed out in the first two games, but not on this belter of a surface. Takes the helmet off and raises the bat to all parts of Trent Bridge. The whole England squad are up on their feet to applaud. It has been a fabulous innings from the Yorkshireman. Clears his front leg to play across the line, then uses his full might to send the flighted delivery sailing into the cow corner crowd
25.3
D Arcy Short to Hales, 1 run, picks out a very full delivery to sweep, gets an under edge to short fine leg

23.6
D Arcy Short to Bairstow, 1 run, tossed up outside off, driven to sweeper cover
23.5
D Arcy Short to Bairstow, SIX, there's the four/six for the over. Australia need to stop these. Floats it up around off, that hint of width allowed Bairstow to free his arms, he went boom over extra cover and got maximum result
23.4
D Arcy Short to Bairstow, no run, flighted delivery around leg, Bairstow misses the sweep and is rappped on the pad. Ball pitched outside leg and hence no appeal for LBW. They think about the single and decide against it

23.1
D Arcy Short to Hales, 1 run, trifle short and on middle, nudged away towards the square leg umpire

22.4
Jhye Richardson to Hales, 1 run, fraction short and outside off, slapped to sweeper cover
20.6
Finch to Hales, FOUR, Hales has had enough of nudging and prodding. Sees the tossed up delivery land in front of him, quickly goes down on his knee and sweeps it over backward of square leg. Couple of bounces and into the fence
20.4
Finch to Hales, 1 run, tad too full and Hales uses his bottom hand to whip the drive past Finch and down to long-on
19.6
Stoinis to Hales, no run, fuller and outside off, Hales drives and mid-off is well in to stop the single

18.5
Andrew Tye to Bairstow, 2 runs, full toss on off, Bairstow missed out there, went a tad too hard on the drive and dragged it off the inner portion of the willow to long-on, but a mistime meant two easy runs
18.4
Andrew Tye to Bairstow, FOUR, this innings has all been the two matching each other shot to shot. Bairstow does not want to be left behind in this over. Gets a juicy half tracker and he nails the pull in front of square leg, no chance for deep square leg
18.3
Andrew Tye to Roy, 1 run, 150 partnership and some glove love between the duo. I0$ Roy eases it to mid-off, where the fielder is right on the edge of the circle and is happy to concede the run
17.3
Stoinis to Roy, 1 run, too straight, on middle and leg, clipped away to deep square leg
16.5

15.3
Stoinis to Bairstow, 2 runs, short of length, cramped for room, and a short-arm pull to deep square leg for fo-... oh no, that's not four. D'Arcy Short has pounced out of nowhere and dived full length to his right to cut it off
15.2
Stoinis to Roy, 1 run, half-volley outside off, Roy check-drives that to mid-off and takes off. Throw by Finch at the non-striker's end, but wayward. He was well short if that had hit
14.5

10.3
Agar to Roy, 1 run, flatter on a back of a length angling towards leg, punched to long-on off the back foot for a single
9.5
Andrew Tye to Bairstow, 2 runs, slower one again, but poor length and line, another easy steer to deep backward point for a brace, could easily have been four

9.3
Andrew Tye to Bairstow, FOUR, length and just outside off, a cramped cut to the fine third man fence for four
9.2
Andrew Tye to Bairstow, 2 runs, one of his million varieties, a slower one on a length. Bairstow was going through the line and ended up too early on the straight loft. A slice towards long-off and Stoinis is running backward! Gets a finger on it diving backwards and it bounces back onto his face. Ouch! I0$

8.4
Agar to Bairstow, no run, a full one, Bairstow misses the sweep since he's gone too far across and rapped on the pads. Bairstow's been given LBW! Fired in and straightening very little from round the wicket. Bairstow reviewed that because it might be missing leg. Could be umpire's call. No bat involved. Oh scratch that! There seems to be a bit of a spike on glove. Nope, says the umpire. And it's wickets missing! Missing leg and going over the stumps too!
8.3
Agar to Bairstow, FOUR, gentle half-tracker, unlike anything he's bowled today, sits up, and that's too easy for Bairstow who slaps it square of the wicket for four

5.4
Jhye Richardson to Bairstow, no run, back of a length outside off, seemed to be coming in with the angle, must have been very subtle seam movement as Bairstow tries to punch through the line, but gets an inside edge onto his pads. Could easily have ricocheted onto the stumps

1.3
