Oh dear. Need someone to pull out a big batting performance 2nd inns

Gritty stuff from the opening pair. Just what was ordered.

Great comeback

I must admit, I expected to wake up to hear they had lost, so was pleasantly surprised to see this!

I'm still expecting that they will lose 9 wickets in the first session tomorrow. Unfounded pessimism is the only way to approach an Ashes series :icon_wink

Good start, really should be going to bed but find myself wide awake watching this.

Spotted two City shirts in the crowd during the applause for the 150 for Cook.

Superb stuff. Records tumbled, but put the 260 first innings in perspective - must do better in Adelaide.

Well done Cook for a first double ton

Although I'm delighted, I wanted the first ten or so overs to be dull in order to convince me to go to bed ready to get up in 6 hours.

Now all I want to do is stay up all night!

Aussies all out for 245.

Strauss out in the first over.

If a Pakistan player had been out like that I'd think there was something dodgy going on...

Cook and Trott both past 50. It's 139 for 1
