Australia vs England fourth test day 1 cricket scores, results, start time, wickets, teams, how to watch, Boxing Day Test, MCG

England have won the toss and sent Australia in to bat.

As we foreshadowed earlier, Jhye Richardson and Michael Neser have been given the nod ahead of Brendan Doggett, who will carry the drinks.

England go in with the XI they named on Christmas Eve.

Curator Matt Page has left 10mm of grass on the pitch, so there will be movement off the seam early.

England don’t have Jofra Archer, so they will need a big lift from Brydon Carse, Gus Atkinson and Josh Tongue, who have struggled with their consistency this series.
