Definately a bat first wicket by the sounds of, should be good until around day 3 so whoever bats first should be looking at 500 although there might be some help for the seamers early on.

Oops!!!

92-7 now...not seen much of it but it showed where the balls were pitched for the 6 before lunch and they were all pretty wide and quite high - more bounce and life in the pitch or just woeful shots??

Please, please, please, let our bowlers pull something out the bag.

Gonna be a looooong Ashes weekend. Or a very short one.
