    26-0 at lunch

    404 behind

    Blimey, Lyon comes on after just nine overs. Couldn't see Cook bringing on a spinner in these circumstances.

    Cook is learning. Ali on last over before lunch.

    Starc is injured, and will miss the next test....ankle injury from yesterday, just reported on Sky

    Will be a doubt for the next test at Lords as there is no break in between.. nothing definite...
    Well he took the last 2 wickets this morning so can't have been that bad!

    They have probably strapped and killed it with an injection but wouldn't want to go into a Test with him not being 100%.

    There were always going to rotate the quickies but with Johnson firing blanks and Starc getting the "five for" they almost certainly have the wrong man injured.

    Cummins or Siddle for Lords then...or both if they drop Johnson too!

    As much as I hate the prick I wouldn't mug off Johnson yet, we've got another innings to bat.
  • i reckon this has pitched outside leg.
  • Yep, thought so. Shit.

    Unbelievably bad umpiring. So clearly not out

    Blowers just called Warner a "plucky fighter"

    I could think of other 'uck' words I might have used...

    i reckon this has pitched outside leg.

    It was never lbw. Initially, I thought we were appealing for a catch.

    Likewise.
  • BOOOOOM!!! Get in.
  • Warner punches his hands at a full ball from Jimmy and it flies to Cooky at first slip.
  • YES!!!!! Good catch that

    One of the finest moments of the series so far - Graeme Swann commentating on Cook being hit "in the crackers"

    Rogers looking ominously good.

    And as expected, Smith properly targeting Moeen. Three 4's in the first over he faced from him. 115/1.

    But Ali gets his revenge ;-)
  • A poor shot but a big wicket. Dare I say it........good captaincy from Cook too!!
