A Decent day for England,but could have been better. Siddle and Hauritz were facing as the Aussies were 8 wickets down. A good partnership of 40 that morning gave Australia hope, before a good catch was taken by Collingwood off Onions (right). With the score at 215, Onions unleashed another good delivery which Siddle, on his highest ever test score of 35, edged a comfortable catch to Strauss.Cook and Strauss played well until lunch before the former got out fro 32. Struass edged one to slip soon after with the score at 74, but Bopara and Pitersen managed to get the score onto 147 before Bopara lost his wicket. Siddle had Pitersen caught behind for 44, before Prior cracked 61 off just 42 deliveries(left). He was run out by North before Collingwood and Flintoff played useful innings and got the score onto 311-6. England declared, with a lead of 521 going into the fourth day.
