Head 101 is a remarkable response to complete English dominance which has changed a lot in the first 10 overs.
Root won the draw and send the host to Bat in a cloudy condition and above the green-over goal.
England, who had lost the series, had Australia on the rope at 12-3 after 10 overs, with Stuart Broad and Robinson could almost be played in the perfect condition of bowling.
They released David Warner and Steve Smith for Duck and Usman Khawaja for six, and should have Marnus Labuschagne, which was dropped by Zak Crawley, without a score.

The first three Wood Overs went for 31, while at the other end, Woakes also took punishment, the five first overs for 23 walks.
Root was forced to bring back back into the attack and at the last second before the first break he attacked in an almost funny way.
Labuschagne, at 44, stepped into offside to try and played widely through the excessive side, but was cleaned when he was excessive to try a shot, Australia’s settlement was lying on the ground when the ball hit his stump.
Robinson and spacious certainly feel like they are playing on the land of England when the ball bites from stitches and moves in the air.

Broad then claimed Khawaja’s goal, was arrested by the roots on the first slip, bringing Smith to the fold.
But Smith, so often British torture, only took two balls before crawling into Crawley and gave Robinson’s second goal.
The head and green looked like hitting through the second session until the former concentration was lost after lifting the century.
Green, which made 74, was the only goal that fell in the last session.
The towering allrounder was batting but fell for a trap set by English, linking the guard directly to Crawley at deep square feet.
