"1030: The first ball of the 2005 Ashes sees Langer let Harmison's rising ball go through to the keeper. The next ball strikes the left-hander on the point of the elbow, leaving him in considerable pain. There is a delay as Australia's team physio runs onto the field."

"1054: Harmison digs one in short to Hayden, who tries to hook but misses by a long way and is struck on the helmet. Another bouncer follows, which this time Hayden manages to evade. The England spearhead is really warming to the task."

"1123: A vicious Harmison bouncer beats Ponting for pace and crashes against the grill of his helmet, cutting the Aussie skipper on his right cheek. A drinks break follows to allow time for the blood to stop flowing."

Have It Aussies!

14.4 Flintoff to Langer, OUT: short ball, Langer goes for the pull but
can't get hold of it. The ball flies high in the air but Harmison
watches it carefully and settles under it at square leg

Australia 66/3, Partnership of 11
JL Langer c Harmison b Flintoff 40 (44b 5x4 0x6)
DR Martyn 2* (3b) A Flintoff 0.4-0-0-1

Australia are in disarray at 66 for 3 and Flintoff has struck with
his first over in an Ashes Test!
England off to a roaring start in their campaign to wrest back the
Ashes
