The Aussie wicketkeeper had added 118 runs for the for the sixth wicket with Usman Khawaja (141).
The ball, which came out of Anderson's hand with a wobbling seam, bounced on good length before nipping back in.

Australia's other overnight batsman Khawaja, meanwhile, kept going at the other end before deciding to be cheeky.

The ball missed Khawaja's attempt to play and hit at the base of off stump, uprooting it completely. Have a look at the wicket here:
