Nah, flat as a pancake this pitch, unless it starts cracking badly this will be a run-fest draw.

Ha! What do I know?

Nothing wrong with the pitch,good bowling and some shite batting.

Termlett 132 for 6

Get rid of Haddin pretty quick, we will be batting before i go to bed. Good bowling, cracking fielding . We havent dropped a hint. Great 1st day considering we lost the toss. Keep going England.

good stand from the aussies but a beauty from Broad clearing out Johnson for his 5fer means we can still keep them down around 300 if we can clean up here.  Less than 400 first up on this pitch is poor so this is a very good bowling performance so far.

Special praise for Broad who has well and truly rammed the aussie taunts down their throats.

Disappointing to let them off the hook somewhat from 132-6  but still England's day - we need to wrap them up earl tomorrow for around 300 and then post a decent 450+ score .

The Aussies seem to often get a big partnership in the tail end with haddin playing well - really important we don't allow them to build another one - if I was a betting man I'd still go the draw but that will do us fine.

Well done broady - star man !
