So right now, it's great. We'll be starting on time and are in no immediate danger.

But this forecast is a little worse than when I last checked it yesterday. Seems as if there is the prospect of a little more rain today, which might just tip us all over the edge into madness.

Hello, welcome back! Hands up who is feeling the effects of getting way too into tennis all night? Yep, me too. But the cricket waits for nobody, and in fact is starting early this morning to make up for all the time lost yesterday.

We've suddenly got a very interesting Test on our hands, with a chance of a result still very much on the table. England took two wickets quickly yesterday before the rain came, and are a good session with the ball away from setting up a run chase. There is less urgency for Australia, but keeping these bowlers at bay remains a tough ask and there is a lot of cricket to be played today — 107 overs, in fact.

So let's get to it!
