England on top after day one despite Shane Warne picking up his 600th test wicket. Trescothick looked to be well set before getting out on 63, Strauss went cheaply as did Peterson. Bell is looking to go on and make a century after ending the day on 59 not out but the star performance of the day has to go to Michael Vaughan's knock of 166, will be dissappointed he didn't go on and make the double hundred after looking in such good form but relieved to finally make a score nonetheless.

Australia may only have 10 batsmen if Michael Clarke's injury doesn't clear up. England will be looking to consolidate tomorow with Flintoff, Jones and Giles all to come yet. England 341-5.
