Broad to Dhoni, he's picked out the fielder! That was full, outside off, and he looked to slog

Aaron strikes again, gets rid of Ballance for 37. England 113/3

A dominating day of cricket for England. Jimmy and Broad struck early and often. England scored swiftly and though they will have been disappointed to lose Ballance in the last over, they are firmly in the drivers seat here.

Andrew Samson, BBC Test Match Statistician had two great nuggets of information today: James Anderson has now bowled more balls than any other Englishman in Test cricket, overtaking Derek Underwood. While Alastair Cook is playing in his 106th consecutive game for England. He is now third on the all-time list, level with Sunil Gavaskar. Mark Waugh is second with 107 and Allan Border leads with 153.
