as always first session is likely to be very important. My thinking is that this is by no means done and dusted and if we lose 2 or 3 quick wickets we may be in trouble. I certainly dont see us as 4/6 like skybet do to win the test. If an aussie i would still have a crack at the 7/2 they are

I'm not an Aussie but am still tempted by those odds on what is most likely going to be a result wicket!

Plenty of swing showing in first over, this looks like it'll be a proper contest today.

Great shot by Jimmy

 

[clarkey]

Anderson playing shots Haddin, Smith etc can only dream of!

Spoke too soon

Time for Bell and/or Collingwood to step up. Have a slightly doomed feeling about this innings...a sort of "collapsing to 220 all out" feeling.

Hope I'm wrong. The weather forecast in Sydney seems good for the next few days.

Very slow outfield, couple of shots this morning would have been easy fours at most grounds.

Lucky escape there for Cook, inches short of Clarke at slip

Not his first lucky escape either

Warne looking spectacular in his pink blazer and clearly trying to hex Cook by saying how well he's playing.

When they asked Shane about his trousers, I thought he was going to say that they were with Liz.
