Well batted Bell

Well bowled Siddle and is 260 enough?

It's enough if we roll them for 100! A bit in this pitch for everyone, a couple of scalps tonight would help.

It's nice to wake up at 6.30 and find out that England still collapse like they used to. Bell and Cook batted well, and KP for flashes of it, but Siddle has impressed majorly. Now we've gotta do something with the ball.

0/25 take that but a long way to go.

Many twist and turns left in this match.

The frailties of the middle order for England will once again expose themselves.
Hmmm. So the middle order didn't do too badly, just the failure of one of the openers and tail to do anything worthwhile. Woke up this morning to TMS telling me it was 254-9 and wondered what on earth had happened... Saturday side...

I may be opening myself to some grief here being a very proud Englishman, but.... It's good to see Peter Siddle back on his game after his nasty back injury. A lot of bowlers wouldn't recover as well never mind take a 6for on return.

Some of the dismissal shots were pretty average, pushing at the ball on bouncy wickets. Not that I would fair any better. Seamers need to put in a serious spell.

already engrossed in this! watched the lot last night - days off work today and tomorrow, i think its in the balance, 260 isn't a disaster if we bowl good areas and get Ponting early.

Seemed a bit of spin as well so swann could get in the action early

were looking ok when i went to bed at 2am....seems they swung it back their way with a hat-trick from siddle. 260 not the end of the world though and something to bowl at....needs early wickets and to get ourselves going in the field to begin our fight back

The lad must obviously play at a higher level than international Test Tom.
