Australia v England, 2nd test, day 1

That could have gone worse! Nice come back from Collingwood and Bell, who took us from 45/2 to 158 before Bell was out for 60. At the close we are 266/3 with Collingwood on 98 and Pietersen on 60. It's great that we have got ourselves into a decent position, and making Australia work for the wickets (although the first 2 were gifts - didn't see the 3rd). Hopefully we can keep them in the field for another 60 or 70 overs tomorrow, post a good score and get them a bit weary. It was almost worth waking up at midnight for.
