1st Investec Test: England v Australia at Cardiff

England on a roll early this morning. Lyon out lbw for 6. Quick, straight, full and plumb. Wood bowling with some good pace this morning. Australia 265/7.

A burgeoning partnership between Haddin and Johnson is broken with a beauty of an outswinger from Jimmy. He has made the new ball sing and dance. The ball is moving all over the show. Australia 304/8.

It's all happening this morning. Johnson chips one to Ballance at short midwicket. 306/9.

A stunning catch from Joe Root puts an end to Australia's innings, all out for 308. Brilliant from England this morning.

Starc with the big wicket of Cook before lunch. Not the best of shots from Cook to be honest. 17/1.

  England 430 & 121/3 (30.0 ov)  Australia 308  England lead by 243 runs with 7 wickets remaining 

I see deh making noise about pitches again..the Cardiff pitch this time.

bowlers are talking wickets so wat is wrong with Cardif.  Johnson is an old fast bowler.  he shud be retired instead of playing test cricket fuh crise sake.  so no sooprise if he cyar get wickets finally.  his synthetic must have worn off
::LOL:: ::LOL:: ::LOL::

England lead by 358 runs with 5 wickets remaining

Stokes 42 and Jos : should play in ODI mode

Jonny for the nexx TEST : give this Butler a rest !

58.2
Lyon to Buttler, and he's gone! Going for the reverse sweep, gets a bit of bat or glove, loops in the air and it's a simple grab

for Haddo...it was glove. Buttler walked straightaway

JC Buttler c †Haddin b Lyon 7

59.1
Starc to Stokes, OUT, and another! Double strike for Australia. Stokes drags on a full delivery, going for the drive, perhaps his feet

didn't quite move and it disturbs the wood work

BA Stokes  b Starc 42 (59b 9x4 0x6) SR: 71.18
