1st Day Scorecards
| England 1st innings | R | B | 4s | 6s | SR |
|
| AJ Strauss* | c Clarke b Johnson | 30 | 60 | 4 | 0 | 50.00 |
|
| 19.6 and the bouncer does the trick! It's a quick one and right on line, Strauss can't get out of the way and the ball clearly takes his gloves and flies up in the air, Clarke runs back from the cordon to take a simple chance 67/2
|
| AN Cook | c Hussey b Hilfenhaus | 10 | 25 | 0 | 0 | 40.00 |
|
| 7.6 GOT HIM! That's a catch and a half from Hussey at gully, as Cook felt for this wide delivery and Hussey flings himself to his right to snaffle a corker! 21/1
|
| RS Bopara | c Hughes b Johnson | 35 | 52 | 6 | 0 | 67.30 |
|
| 24.4 and the slower ball does the trick! Johnson runs the fingers over this one and Bopara is committed to the drive, he mistimes it horribly and lobs it up for a simple catch to Hughes at point 90/3
|
| KP Pietersen | c Katich b Hauritz | 69 | 141 | 4 | 0 | 48.93 |
|
| 70.5 got him! A terrible shot from Pietersen, trying to sweep this from miles outside off without getting down into position, and he top edges it meekly straight into the hands of a delighted Katich at short-leg 241/5
|
| PD Collingwood | c †Haddin b Hilfenhaus | 64 | 145 | 6 | 0 | 44.13 |
|
| 65.3 got him - what a catch by Haddin diving to his right! Just outside the off stump, Collingwood edged it and Haddin moved a little late, but clung on with both hands 228/4
|
| MJ Prior† | b Siddle | 56 | 62 | 6 | 0 | 90.32 |
|
| 88.3 inswing back into the right-hander and he's bowled him! A fantastic delivery by Siddle - huge, late inswing and it forces its way through Prior's gate 329/7
|
| A Flintoff | b Siddle | 37 | 51 | 6 | 0 | 72.54 |
|
| 86.4 bowled him! An horrid, angled bat as he tries to drive but gets a thick inside edge which hammers into his stumps 327/6
