Adelaide Test - Day Two

Day one was a good day for England, day two would confirm how good a day.

With Strauss going after three balls, the normal English conservatism (ok well pessimism) kicked in again amongst English supporters, would we repeat Australia's performance? Then Cook and Trott just continued where they left off at Brisbane and just batted, batted some more and continued batting. Trott gave a couple of chances but overall it was very easy with both batsmen dealing with a fairly ordinary attack. The biggest surprise was Trott getting himself out and apart from a not unusual chaotic start from Pietersen it was all England.

Already ahead, its now a question of how many England score and ..................the weather. Showers are forecast from Sunday/Monday, with potential for heavier rain on Tuesday.
