298 and all gone. Surprising how just two more would have sounded more respectable. Up to the bowlers and fielders now.

I reckon it'll be plenty.

Time for some Ben Stokes. Charging in, three slips, good pace... my word, vicious late in-swinger, almost cleans Mathews up. Now one that goes the other way, Mathews fencing hopefully at a delivery that's already gone.

90-7 is a cracking reply from us. Not done yet either....

Make that 91 all out. Brilliant. Anderson five, Broad four.

I'm reckoning 300 is looking pretty good for a first innings total...

Cricket highlights have always been on Ch 4 at 7-0. Now it seems Sky have grabbed those too.

They're on 5 TD.

You'd not want to face our attack under these conditions. Probably best attack there has been when it's swinging.
