First Ashes Test. Edgbaston.

[K]

Paine: "Don't do it for one session and then stop."

Who was he speaking to?

[K]

Cummins from around the wicket to the LHed batsman.

3 slips, but the thick edge goes to the boundary.

.....

Cummins beats Stokes with some movement. Good bowling.

Lloyd: "There just a hint... a hint of reverse swing."

[K]

Labu is on the field.

(On cricinfo last year, it was agreed that his name should be pronounced one way, but he supposedly wants it to be pronounced another way.)

[K]

Short ball. Caught. Appeal. Given out! Immediate review.

It looks like it's got the band of the glove. It's out!!

Another bad review! Bairstow goes.

Relief for Joel Wilson. It was a delayed decision.

England 6/97.

[K]

Lyon gets Stokes caught behind!!

England 7/97.

Another good catch from Paine, to go with the one that dismissed Burns in the first innings.

350 wickets for Lyon.

The catch looks just as good (or better) on repeat viewings.

[K]

Woakes strokes a 4 to get off the mark.

But this could be over within an hour now.

It looks like Woakes is going to play strokes.

Moeen defends his first ball.

[K]

Odds:

Oz ~97%
Draw ~3%
England ~0%.

[Donny]

7/112.

Lyon 4/40, Cummins 3/31.

[K]

Woakes is hitting out, but it's almost time for the post mortem.

Oz were lucky that England were a bowler down.
Archer is the obvious replacement for Anderson.

England have to decide what to do with Moeen.

..................

Botham & Athers are now wondering about Starc & Lords.

[K]

Woakes has raced to 25*.

This is mildly annoying.

Now 29*.

Not good bowling from Pattinson.

[K]

Woakes has 24 wickets in 4 matches at Lord's at an average of 9.75.

Athers says he's better at home than abroad. That's the problem with too many cricketers. That's why we have all these one-sided games in world cricket.

[K]

Siddle is back to replace the wayward Pattinson.

Athers: "Tim Paine has said enough is enough."

Siddle cuts Woakes in half. Wow, he deserves a wicket here.

Botham: "Very difficult to leave him out."

[K]

Big appeal for LBW against Moeen! Not out. Paine reviews.

Too high. Still not out.

And immediately another LBW shout! Not out, again. Paine doesn't review this one. That one was not as close, replays show.

Good over from Siddle, after the rubbish over from Pattinson.

[K]

Smith to bowl legspin.

He might be awkard against Moeen, but Woakes has the strike for now.

Smith starts around the wicket, but then switches to over.

Rank full toss. Not punished. Drinks.

Oz still need 3 wickets.

[K]

Lyon gets Moeen.

England 8/136.
