Day one delivers runs, records and self-inflicted damage as Australia mix Carey’s century with some very avoidable wickets, while we start looking ahead to the Boxing Day Test. The Premier League throws up more questions than answers with Spurs wobbling, West Ham sinking and clean sheets still hard to come by. The Big Bash returns as festive background noise, the darts stay drama-free (for now), Falkirk grind through a scrappy afternoon in brutal conditions, and we finish with outrageous speed, an all-time meltdown and a proper sickos’ pick.
