The more I see the replay the more id be fuming if I was Carey! Never byes those!

He's had an exceptional match dosent need bowler errors put down as his fault!

Can't be far away from Boland getting a go now England off to a flyer

Morning all, I'l be honest today is the first day in the series I haven't got up for the star t due to it being my first wedding anniversary....what on earth has gone on? I mean we all predicted it but what the hell? Hugely expecting an innings defeat by the end of today now

I set my alarm for 5am. Then reset it for 7. Then reset it to 8.

The plan is to make 600 and declare before it gets dark tomorrow

Then unleash demon spinner will jacks on the aussies

good start for England. No silly stuff.

A long way to go, but nicely nicely

Well fair play they survived the 6 overs and got to 45-0 without loss....Australia look toothless if Starc dosent fire....Lyon would have been useful for some control but it's only early in the innings and we all know England could collapse in a heap

Congrat Andy!

If England go down scoring at 7 an over we might see another media reaction similar to KP-gate.

WI showing England the way last night.

Crawley has 100 runs in the game with the power to add, so that's an unexpected contribution.

England's opening partnerships in the series have been 0-0-5, so these runs are very welcome.

England's attack must be shattered though after the horror of the Australian innings.
