  • His century came from 213 balls, and he reached triple figures with pulled boundary off Chris Woakes. His innings wasn't without chances — he reviewed an lbw decision when he was on 29 and got a reprieve, he got an edge which didn't quite carry to slip on 31 and was dropped again on 102, just before the dinner interval.

  • In the 92nd over, Paine was on 24 when he also was hit in front but the tracker technology indicated the ball was going over. Otherwise, the second day belonged to Australia and cast doubt on England captain Joe Root's decision to field first after winning the toss.
