What a boring ****. Clark to Bell, Clark puts it in the same place to Bell who defends. Clark to Bell, Clark puts it in the same place to Bell who defends and so on and so on...England will get 400 here, in the time it took Australia to get 600 last week. Just what you need when you are one down in the series you idiots.

Bring on KP and Freddie. Today needs some livening up!

In all fairness, at 1-0 down and 2/45 someone needed to get their head down and Bell-end did it admirably.

What a road though. They should get 500+. KP made it look easy compared to those who came* before him.

People have been spoilt the past few years watching 300 plus runs on the 1st day. A few years ago, 300 was unheard of as teams would consolidate their positions on the first day.

Yesterday, England knew they had to bat for 5 sessions and they would have set out not wanting to lose more that 3-4 wickets in the day. They did this, and more power to them. If Pieterson and Flintoff get off to fliers today, they will be 500 plus by Tea today which would be a more than satisfactory result.

Good day of real old fashioned Test Cricket. England won Day 1 and the Aussies will need to dig deep from here.

Ian Bell is a hack of the highest order.

hmmm arm chairs not comfy blokes??

Maddogmike would have racked up 200 before lunch i reckon.
