- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR24.4 Strauss goes for 63! He's gone for a slightly premeditated slog over midwicket, but the ball turns a touch and skies off his top edge, Bracken at short third man takes a comfortable chance 111/34.5 gone! Lee makes the breakthrough and Denly departs to a slightly tame nudge outside off, there's a hint of movement away and his edge is snaffled by White at first slip 29/118.3 Hauritz gets rid of Bopara! Spinning in a fraction, Bopara looks to sweep and is struck in line with off stump, Nigel Llong sends him on his way 96/232.1 Lee strikes first ball! That's a perfect, fast yorker that angles in and Prior, used to the spin, doesn't get the bat down in time and loses his middle stump 146/444.1 is this out? The umpires converse and decide that, yes, that was a legal ball. They were checking on the height, it was a full toss around waist height, Shah pulled and mistimed, finding Ferguson at midwicket 206/839.3 wonderful stumping! Superb work from Paine, up to the stumps to Bracken. It's a wide down leg side, Morgan looks to flick and misses the ball, and lifts his foot in the process. Paine collects and whips the bails off very smartly. Morgan's foot is on the line, and the third umpire gives that out. 174/543.1 Another terrific yorker! Lee gets through Wright with a fast, full ball that angles in, beats the outside of the bat and slams into Wright's off stump 200/643.3 Lee gets another! This one takes Broad's leg stump, it was fast and full, Broad was backing away and just didn't get bat on ball. 202/745.3 another yorker and another wicket for Lee! Superb bowling, fast, straight and simply too good for England's lower order. Rashid was backing away a touch to try and work it through off, but it's dead straight and crashes into middle stump 212/946.3 Johnson finishes the innings! Sidebottom misses a straight one and Johnson's too fast, it crashes into middle and leg 220/10Extras8 (b 1, lb 1, nb 4, w 2)TOTAL220 all out (46.3 Overs, RR: 4.73)Fall of wickets: 1-29 (Joe Denly, 4.5 ov), 2-96 (Ravi Bopara, 18.3 ov), 3-111 (Andrew Strauss, 24.4 ov), 4-146 (Matt Prior, 32.1 ov), 5-174 (Eoin Morgan, 39.3 ov), 6-200 (Luke Wright, 43.1 ov), 7-202 (Stuart Broad, 43.3 ov), 8-206 (Owais Shah, 44.1 ov), 9-212 (Adil Rashid, 45.3 ov), 10-220 (Ryan Sidebottom, 46.3 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR9.4 Bresnan gets the first breakthrough! Fullish and angling in towards middle, Watson walks across and is struck in line with middle, that would've taken leg stump, says Asad Rauf. 51/118.6 that's it for Paine, Rashid gets the breakthrough. He's gone for the dab sweep and a top edge is easily picked up by Prior 108/234.4 gone! Ponting falls short of his half-century, a sharp catch from Bopara at short cover as Ponting tries to go over the top 168/3Extras11 (b 1, lb 1, nb 2, w 7)TOTAL221/3 (43.4 Overs, RR: 5.06)Fall of wickets: 1-51 (Shane Watson, 9.4 ov), 2-108 (Tim Paine, 18.6 ov), 3-168 (Ricky Ponting, 34.4 ov)
