Two days gone and England are, perhaps, just on top.
Once again, they had trouble getting through the Aussie tail; oh for the days of Trueman, Statham et al ! That said, if it hadn't been for the tail the Aussies would have been all but dead and buried by now as the top order were as hopeless as ever. England's batsman have yet to drive home their advantage, though, with Strauss reaching 50 again, only to get out, something he has now gained a worrying habit of doing. Cook's still there but, with Collingwood's form non-existent, a couple of early wickets tomorrow will put the Aussies right back in it.
If the weather holds, there'll be a result, but which way is yet to be determined.
