Ashes - Live
 
Damn,
That wasn't part of the plan - 1 down for no runs!

It's great stuff, but Bell and Collingwood are the guys I'm really worried about.

Nervy start and a close call on the LBW...

Cook's deadbatting the Aussies, not playing any false shots - see how Doherty handles KP now.....

Even stevens at lunch, very tense and exciting, think it will be like this all the way:)

All going a bit pear shaped for us.

Even worse is that the bbc has gone on the blink at work for some reason (can't get any .co.uk sites :confused:) so have to listen to the abc coverage instead.

Hmmmm, Siddle was saying this morning that it would be a good toss to lose. I thought that he would say that, but I reckon he's got a point. England are not collapsing so if they can add another 50 for the 5th and get to 350-odd (or more), then I would say that they have done well.

Yeah 350+ would do. Bell and Cook seem settled, need a ton from at least one of them I think.

Also Watson seems to be getting it to swing a bit which bodes well for our bowlers.

True. I think Australia have bowled quite well - it's very close at the moment.
