all over!!! 295 AO, England lead by 104 good lead

No 5-fer fro Tredders.

The sad thing is he could take all 10 in the second innings and still have to make way for Moeen in the second test.

Good effort by England. And especially lone spinner JT. All the bowlers were ok.

this is where a good side would go out and score quickly and demoralise the opposition

England bowled 47 overs in 3hr 40 min, is Cook in fine territory?

He might get a ban but he's the sort of captain who finds it's the opposition who beg for leniency against him.

Four seamers in the team and the lone spinner takes 4 wickets in the opponent's first innings. Strange .

I thought Anderson might have taken more.

100th test, record in sights....I thought he'd have bust a gut to get them out.

What's the goal? Bat to tea tomorrow, and set a target of 400+?

Still no luck for Trott.
