Siddle has 5. Prior out. England self destructing.

 

[Dan]

Sloppy shot from Prior.

KP is the best batsman England have had in a long time.

He's too dumb for my liking. Out for 14 also.

180/6. The usual story for England in the first innings of a series. Dear oh dear.

Hopefully Broad can find some form and Swann can continue where he left off against Essex.

That's one score on a day when the whole team has (so far) underperformed. He plays game-changing innings that none of our other batsman could play.

I blame the absence of the trumpet.

200 up. Broad is smashing the ball around.

Ssssssh!

Apparently Bell averages 21 against Australia. Didn't realise it was that low. That's pretty awful!

 

[tomw24]

2 more boundaries from Broad and he's moved onto 24 off 29 balls.

 

[tomw24]

And Broad commits cricket suicide.

 

[tomw24]

Brilliant ball from Starc and he demolishes Bairstow's stumps.

My word, England are being picked apart.

Wait until England have bowled before saying that. And Finn gets a golden duck.

Cheerio Finn.

Well unless there's a huge last wicket stand...

England often start slow. Usually then skittle the opposition before getting a large second innings score. I'll keep taking the tablets.

Well the ball is swinging a lot. Swing + Anderson = carnage (hopefully!)

Then they'd still have been picked apart in the first innings.

 

[Piebacca]

Well, Froome has won the Tour De France.
