Pint-sized Ashes: England v Australia 5th Test Day One
Watch a summary of day one of the fifth Test at The Oval in under three minutes…
England's bowlers were made to toil on the opening day of the final Ashes Test as Australia lifted their hopes of a consolation win with an impressive batting display.
Put in to bat by England captain Alastair Cook, the tourists progressed to 287-3.
David Warner scored 85 and Chris Rogers 43 as the openers put on 110 for Australia's first wicket.
Captain Michael Clarke, who was given a guard of honour by the England team when he walked out to bat in his final Test, could only make 15.
But an unbroken century stand from Steve Smith (78) and Adam Voges (47) ensured the tourists were on top when bad light ended play.
