Entertaining Day 1 with the game evenly poised but Australia maybe slightly the happier on what appears a pretty flat pitch. 343-7 #ENGvAUS

Brilliant century from England's Joe Root. You have to feel so sorry for Brad Haddin after dropping him on nought...well you don't actually.

Quickest of Joe Root's 6 test 100s was against West Indies at St George's in April 2015 in 125 balls. He is batting at 93 off 110 balls now.

16 - Since Joe Root's debut in Dec. 2012 England have recorded 37 Test century partnerships; he has been involved in 16 of them. Fulcrum.

1 - England have matched their total number of century partnerships in the 2013/14 Ashes series (one). Homely.
