    Big, big wicket! Broad snags Clarke for his third wicket of the day straight after the restart. Bell takes the catch at short leg







    David Warner closes in on his half century, but falls one run short before being caught by Kevin Pietersen



    Chris Tremlett gets the wicket of Steve Smith to reduce Australia to 132-6



    Brad Haddin and Mitchell Johnson both rack up half centuries as the Aussies claw their way back into the contest



    ... but Johnson is eventually skittled – and it's by Broad again. Johnson racked up 64 precious runs but Australia are now 246-7



    Can England get one more wicket before the day is through? They can. Alastair Cook catches Peter Siddle at first slip off Anderson's ball



    It's been quite a day for Broad, he's ended it with five wickets. Australia are 273-8. But, perhaps critically, Haddin is in fine form on 73 not out and will return alongside Harris. Nicely balanced, this one

    Every time Dutch Shepherd Wiebe comes home from a walk, he drinks from the pond. As the fish are always fed when Wiebe's owner, Dorri Eijsermans, returns from the walk the fish have eventually associated Wiebe's drinking with feeding time. They have begun to come to the surface to acknowledge his presence. Whilst drinking, Wiebe often gives the carp a kiss
