The opening batters put on 90 for the first wicket to help Australia reach 187 for three at the close of day one.

Khawaja's been stopped from sporting a dove symbol by the International Cricket Council on grounds he's making a political statement.

Warner has encouraged Khawaja to stand by his beliefs and get on with cricket.

Play resumes at 12.30pm.
