Last Test: Day 4

England reached a magnificent total of 644, which is a record folks! The previous biggest score in Australia by us Brits was 636 in that stella 1928 Test, in which Wally Hammond made 251. Prior, Bell, and Cook all made centuries, and the tail enders heaped up an impressive amount of runs, with Swann at one point hitting 17 in one over off a crazily wayward Mitchell Johnson.

It was all set up, however, by a superb innings by El Capitan himself, Andrew Strauss. He stormed out of the blocks, set the pace, and left Cook to get another huge score. The rest of the boys followed his example nicely and all in all it was a beautiful day's batting.

The Aussie's came into bat and had to had to had to get a good start to have any hope of achieving the HUGE score they needed. Did they start well? Um, not really. Watson and Hughes had a comedy moment of 'to me to you' and a grinning Pieterson ran a bemused Watson out. Not great. And it didn't get any better. They finished the day 21...
