After the first hour it was England's session...

Next half hour was Aussies....

Last half hour England's again.....

Could have been a lot worse but going along at 5 an over England probably the happier.... Aussies would have expected more than 3 wickets after putting England in....

Stokes bowled by a pearler from Stark. Not a good 20 mins. Seriously overcast and lights on, great bowling conditions. Got to get up to 300 somehow, need a partnership between Brook and Jonny. Brook needs to go big here !
 
F'sake Stokes and Bairstow bowled out cheaply, they were a pair of jaffas to be fair.
 
Loose shot from Jonny that, with the ball nipping about. In trouble now, badly need a partnership. Not much to come after Woakes although Wood can smash it about a bit.
 
250/7 at tea, useful from woakes and wood....

On beeb text someone who's watched a lot of Surrey at the oval this year reckons 280 is around par for this pitch....
