Ear pierced Fat Freddy on the rampage with the bat. Billy Bowden's arthritic signalling working overtime.

Harmison cPonting bWarne Warne on a hatrick.

Giles cHayden bWarne 8-131

7-101 a wicked ball from Lee.

Australia are notoriously poor at chasing low targets. Bell out 6-76

Pietersen cGilchrist bWarne 5-72

Hoggard c Hayden b Lee. What was that you were saying PG?

Could the plane deporting those from the UK detour to Melbourne and pick up their like minded colleagues.

Vaughan bowled Lee 3-29.

2-27 Trescothick out to Lee.

Could well be an interesting morning. Warne vs the top order. England's failure to tour the subcontinent in nigh on 20 years could prove costly.

Katich goes. Its Freddy vs Gilly.

Bad news for England. Giles is beginning to spin it. Warne will wreak havoc in Englands second innings if Giles is already using the rough patches to effect on day 2.

Clarke goes but Langer looks set for a BIG score.

Could someone over there pop over to Edgbaston. Whilst there remove that moaning sourpuss Yorkshireman aka Boycott from the C4 commentary box as his slagging off of everything is doing my head in

Hell where are you all?. Hayden is out.

I know pg. I should have eloborated and said I thought it was harsh that Kaspa was dropped for Lee. The old NSW chestnut maybe

That would be great Philly. Here's mine: 1. Chelsea 2. Arsenal 3. Liverpool 4. ManU 5. Middlesboro 6. Tottenham 7. Charlton 8. Bolton 9. Everton 10.ManShiteh 11. Aston Villa 12. Newcastle 13. Rovers 14. Foolem 15. Portsmouth 16. WestBrom 17. WestHam 18. Birmingham 19. Wigan 20. Sunderland

Kasprowicz, who in my humble opinion was unlucky to be dropped in the first place,returned with 3 wickets.When he's back into Test cricket mode expect the wickets to tumble.

At last we have a Test. I wonder if England can reproduce todays form over the next four days?

What the hell was Vaughan doing? It's a Test match. Block the hard balls and put away the easy ones. One good session totally undone by poor sloppy batting

Oh dear the collapse begins Who the hell is Ian Bell?

No more I'd much rather see two full strength teams slug it out. Good to see the South African is out

Nothing to be happy about depriving the series of a class bowler.

Don's Marvels entered. And it'll be a marvel if I manage to break into the top 100 given how well I did last season.
