It's back rather than elbow for Swann which is good though, not a recurrence.

[PaulWinch again]

Australia no spinner, odd.

[PaulWinch again]

Good start, but I'm surprised we haven't played Finn.

[PGW]

Good start, but I'm surprised we haven't played Finn.

Yes i agree dont understand it myself 3rd ranked in the world and he's left out.

[PaulWinch again]

Cook gets a start and out again, he really needs to address this.

[PaulWinch again]

Need to get this run rate up, this pitch is really good.

[PGW]

Dont think any need to worry just yet as long as Trott steps up his rate later in his innings.....as long as he stays in. Would love to see this pair really dominate the Aussie attack.

[PaulWinch again]

We need 300 + I think.

[PaulWinch again]

Bell's in now, he has to go on.

[PaulWinch again]

We do need to get a move on here.

[PaulWinch again]

I really think 300 + is required on this pitch and we're getting bogged down.

[PaulWinch again]

Come on Belly, we can't let Voges get on top of us.

[PaulWinch again]

Accelerate please England.

Bears duo going a bit too slowly here.  Could really do with KP at 3 in ODIs.

[Dante Lavelli]

Both Bell and Trott are playing the anchor role.  One of them needs to sacrifice their natural game a bit and play a few shots.
