Good man. Didnt know this..... for anyone else abroad who might need it, link above.

[Arthur Crabtree]

We're off. Time to take your caffeine tablet in Australia.

Tufnell is saying Warner edged the first ball, not given, England dont review.... clear nick apparently.

[Arthur Crabtree]

He didn't walk?

[sussexpob]

He didn't walk?

Must not have noticed the nick, the new family friendly Australia would definitely walk....

Hes apparently getting a telling off from the umpire for standing in the danger area too.....

Audible "same old Aussies, always cheating" rings out around Edgbaston

Few balls beating the batsman..... Broad currently reviewing one, but the TMS team arent convinced.

[Arthur Crabtree]

It was Broad that didn't review...

[sussexpob]

It was Broad that didn't review...

Broad gets Warner.... damage is limited to a couple of runs

Football style chanting (sounding very loud the crowd) rings outto send him away.

[sussexpob]

Hawkeye confirms it was missing... both teams not keen to waste reviews?

[Arthur Crabtree]

Oh dear.

Crowd will have to chant: same old Aussies, being cheated...

[Arthur Crabtree]

Livens things up a bit, Broad getting Wee Davie early on a dodgy decision.

Interesting to hear the Brisbane Enquirer's take on that.

[Arthur Crabtree]

UK's average in the UK, is under 20.

[sussexpob]

Bancroft gone. Sandpaper comes out in the crowd as he walks off (this is going to get boring quickly, hopefully)....

Smith walks in. Key to the series you feel, England will want to damage that confidence early.

[Arthur Crabtree]

Broad again. Not dropping him is going well.

[sussexpob]

Woakes gets Khawaja. Feather edge picked up on review...

[DiligentDefence]

Stokes not bowling well.
