England all out for 138. Morgan was unable to return due to his concussion. Hope he is okay as that was a nasty blow. Credit to Australia. They put the ball in probing channels and forced England into mistakes.

My prayers are with Morgan hope it's nothing more than a concussion

Good to hear from you DownUnda. I hope all is well with you.
The fact that Morgan was at least able to walk off under his own power was slightly reassuring but he really did look very woozy and understandably so. You never like to see any batsman hit like that. Starc was clearly shaken up by it.

It was not the first time Morgan had been troubled by the short ball in this series. He took blows on the gloves at both Lord's
and the previous match at Old Trafford.
After the match at Lord's, Morgan upgraded his helmet to include the new flaps which cover the neck area
that have been introduced in the wake of Phil Hughes' death.

I can't believe Australia got this one! I wanted the Aussies to win, but was sure they were not going to do it. I thought England was going to put on a fight, but it sees as if Australia dominated them completely. So sorry for what happened to Morgan though, it seems the blow was pretty strong. Hopefully it's only a concussion.

Dont tell this to Mitch Marsh
The only reason we really look after the speed is to pick on the allrounders
who think they're bowling fast but they're ten miles slower.
Why Australian fast bowler Pat Cummins ever bothers to look at the speed gun
