As an aside, over the past 9 tests (5 vs India, 3 vs West Indies and this one) Anderson has outscored Broad 147 runs to 121. Broad has been batting like a test No. 11 for the past year.

He did not like the short stuff the Aussies bowled at him, but really since the Indian bowler splatted Broad's nose across his face, he has lost his bottle with the bat.

No ball, bloody typical.

Wood to Guptill, 1 no ball, straighter line, it bounces a little and takes the outside edge to first slip! Wood has his first Test wicket...oh no he doesn't! Wood has surely overstepped, what a calamity. It's so close but I don't think he's got anything behind the line here. Yep, no-ball called and Wood is robbed of a first wicket through his own fault, what a shame for him because it was a lovely delivery, angled in and straightening just enough to take the edge

A couple of early wickets after lunch would be in order.

Based on this it should be Stokes and Wood who should be opening the bowling.
