I was woken up this morning by Morning Report on my radio, which happily told me that England had finished day one of the final test on top with Andrew Strauss the day's star. Two minutes later and Breakfast on my television decided to tell me that Australia had finished day one of the final test on top with Shane Warne the day's star.
On reflection I suspect the Breakfast analysis was probably closer to the truth. The Oval sounds like it is a batsman's paradise and the English stacked their batting at the expense of their bowling and should therefore have been aiming for more runs. Having said that, five weeks ago who would have called a day one score against Australia of 319/7 a below-par effort?
