Now the toss is looking like a better decision with Cook out as well, they've been very aggressive this morning and had reward for it.

I'm on a train to Devin so I'm following the game on Cricinfo. It's reminiscent of watching football on Teletext!

Now then Ballance lets see if you can cement your place in the side.

I don't know what to think right now, if we had one of Root or Cook still in you'd say this is pretty much honours even but taking 2 key wickets means they've just about had the better of the session.

A healthy run rate but the wickets lost column is disappointing.

We need these two to stick around for the duration.

I love it. The Cricket anorak in me loves the scorecard archive. I was recently looking at the scorecard for my first ever test at Edgbaston in 1978, the debut test of one D I Gower.

I'm pretty sure that I was at this game (or so I've been told) but since I was only three, I don't remember

Cricinfo is about the best stats site for any sport I've found, even the play centre gives you brilliant stats about the lengths being bowled, etc.

Not looking good for Vince. He wont get a better opportunity to score big.

Lost 3 wickets to what looks like a distinctly mediocre bowler
