    Disastrous start! Roy given out in what we shall call a dubious lbw! And Davies now run out without facing a ball! 8-2 in first over.. Henriques sent out ahead of Wilson...

    Canters - wrong thread mate. I'll have to flag you soon !!

    312-9

    Broad with his 4th wicket

    337-9

    40 runs scored so far this morning in the first 5 overs - be happy with that in T20 let alone a Test match.

    350 all out

    Good return from Broad of 5-109 though at a somewhat expensive 6.35 an over.

    What absolute dross bowling this morning. There was a stat which said that in 72 overs Englnad had bowled 17 balls that would/could have hit the wicket ! - and 2 of those brought wickets.
    Surely this morning was the prime time for bowling full and at the wicket what with all the batsmen backing away and flat batting all the short stuff- but they just seem incable of doing it.- and just want to bounce people out.

    Havnt seen Lyth bat before, but impressed so far, at least he is not interested in taking on bouncers and ducks out the way. Needs to be like that v Johnson etc.

    Cook certainly seems a lot more solid too ! Good signs.
    That'll be the kiss of death then !

    In terms of RPO, Broad's "Michelle" is the most expensive in Test Cricket history.

    The England run rate is far too adventurous. We need Ballance out there to calm things down.

    54-0 at lunch

    Lyth & Cook both undefeated on 27

    Lunch.

    54-0

    Both openers on 27, extremely well done by both of them.

    Cook looks like his old self, great stuff.

    I keep hearing the experts say that with Cook no longer playing ODI cricket he is back to his old self, couldn't agree more. If only he'd have listened to my (and Michael Vaughn's) advice a year ago to quit ODI's........

    Afternoon session about to start, Cook is on 8896 runs in Test Cricket so needs 5 more to surpass Gooch and become England's leading run scorer in Tests.

    I cant remember the last time Englands openers put on a really big score. Hopefully this is it because I can't see us winning the Ashes unless the top order scores heavily.

    Congratulations Alastair Cook, superb. Headingley erupts.

    Cook is only 30 i think ? - he could go on and on - to maybe 12000 runs! - way past anyone else.

    If he stays in this form for the rest of his career he could go past Sachin ... :-)
