After an impressive start yesterday where England held on for 407 runs, their largest opening score for 60 summut years. Can they Eliminate the Australian batsmen before tea time?

Oh and at the request of the ever nonplussed Rockandrollsalive ( ) can we be a little more enthusiastic today?

Excellent!

1226: WICKET Australia 118-3 (Martyn 20)
The batsmen attempt a quick single but Vaughan gets to the ball quickly at mid-on and hits the stumps at the non-striker's end. The decision is referred ot the TV umpire and Martyn is just short. What a boost for England on the stroke of lunch

PREDOMINANT said:

Mmmmmm... lunch!

Bloody hell, faster than you can say "cucumber sandwich" they have got another 20!

Bugger!

Just thought I'd put in another appearance... it's been a while!

Haha
