00:00Play, play nicely. Soft hands from Root. He has his first boundary.

00:13It's going to be four. It's going to be Legby's two. Just slightly off line, that's all it takes.

00:25A few less now. Beautifully played.

00:30He just did it on the straight side there. Pat Cummins, you can see that he's pushing really hard.

00:39This foot is just too straight. Class players like Joe Root don't miss out on too many of those.

00:43He waited. He's trying to get the timing right. Worked it.

00:49Goal!

00:51Tickle fine, and that will have all momentum it needs.

01:00Been straying in line this time, and too easy for Joe Root. Just picks it off.

01:11Not particularly good line in length at the moment. He's strained both sides of the wicket.

01:15This is a problem with rotation, I have to say.

01:17Rotate bowlers, they come in, lacking wiggle. Lacking a bit of form, confidence.

01:27Give him a roll.

01:28Good ball runs again.

01:45100 comes up for England.

01:47That's the line.

01:57He's got lucky on that occasion, Joe Root.

02:00It'll go for four.

02:02Bad shot. Root knows it. He's crossed with himself.

02:06It's a poor shot against an off spinner, trying to play a little late dab.

02:09Not when it's spinning.

02:12Inside air jump to stumps.

02:13That's a really, really dangerous shot.

02:18That's how close it is, guys!

02:23I don't know.

02:29Got to pull this time.

02:30Pretty quickly outfield here at Old Trafford.

02:52Face to the bat.

02:55Sparing dive.

02:56Laundrie will be impressed.

03:00Well, that pleases the crow.

03:07And so it's sure that's a beautiful shot from Joe Root.

03:10Probably the shot of the day for mine.

03:12Attempted bouncer from Hazelwood.

03:14It just didn't get up.

03:15Sat at about chest height.

03:18Right in the middle of the bat.

03:19Swivels on it nicely.

03:20Hits it just in front of square.

03:21And that rocketed across the outfield.

03:24It's really good patient batting.

03:26Sitting back and waiting for a scoring opportunity.

03:28And there it was.

03:30Oh!

03:39Root goes on to 50.

03:45Enjoys batting here.

03:47He's got a very good record on this ground.

03:49He came into this innings averaging over 100.

03:52He's got a big double hundred here against Pakistan a few years ago.

03:59He enjoys the conditions.

04:02I enjoy watching him bat here.

04:04Thickish outside edge.

04:15Nip and tuck.

04:16Ball wins.

04:16Oh, he's in the gap, boy.

04:43Oh, after you, Claude.

04:49Huge frustration for Cummins.

04:51Mentioned the ball before.

04:53There was a hint of movement.

04:54He passed Root's outside edge in the previous over.

04:57It's just a bit there.

04:58Just enough to find the edge.

05:00I think that is the keeper's catch.

05:04We've seen Warner take a couple to his left in this series.

05:09But that has to be the wicket keeper's catch.

05:12Well, it went quickly.

05:33It's an excellent delivery.

05:34It's a good spell of bowling, is this, from Cummins.

05:42Well, it is.

05:44Think of what's happened just in the last ten balls or so.

05:48That edge that's gone through between...

05:50Well, there's only bats on it.

05:54Otherwise, it's dead.

05:55It's gone.

05:57No hesitation for Kumar Dharmasina.

06:02Joe Root has a quick look at Jason Roy, but he knows.

06:10Captain gone for 71.

06:12175 for four.
