The second Test is in Adelaide.
Australia 473-9-dec and 230-9 dec Labuschagne.
England 236 and 82-4 Richardson.
Need more to win.
The scorecard is a summary of what happened.
England are facing defeat in the second Test after captain Joe Root fell in the final over of the game.
The final ball of the day was the one that Joe Root nicked behind to Mitchell Starc.
It was a blow to the tourists, who were set a nominal 468 to win, and need to bat out the final day for a draw.
After being unable to field at the start of the day because of an injury, Joe Root dug in for 67 balls for 24 and looked set to end the day with a century.
Haseeb Hameed was the first England casualty when he gloved a ball from Jhye Richardson behind for a duck.
The highest score of the series was scored by Rory Burns, who was dropped by Richardson on 34 after he had reached his highest score.
Australia moved from 45-1 to 230-9 before declaring an hour before tea, despite losing three of their own in the first session.
On a turning track and with another session under the lights to come on day five, the hosts look poised to take a 2-0 series lead.
Reaction to the fourth day in Adelaide.
England is on the verge after the root ball was knocked down.
Had Joe Root survived the last over, there would have been slim hopes that a draw could have been salvaged.
He scored 1, 630 runs in the year that ended in 2021, setting a record for an England batter and more than 1,000 for any of his team-mates.
He pushed onto the front foot off the stump and offered a thin edge to Alex Carey after five balls of Starc's over left.
He went to the hospital after being hit in the groin by Starc, the same place he had taken a blow without protection before the game.
He was so sore that his side was hoping he had taken a hammer blow.
Nathan Lyon will be a major threat to England on the final day, having beaten the bat again and again in the final session.
Richardson was much improved on the first day, while Starc and all-rounder Green impressed again.
England fans will have little hope in the middle and lower order, which has been collapsing repeatedly.
More to come.
