2nd Test, Lord's
England: 126-0 (Lunch)
It was a frustrating morning with the ball for Australia as England's openers raced to 126 in the first session of the 2nd Test at Lord's.After having a hard time in Cardiff, Andrew Strauss (47*) and Alistair Cook (67*) have hardly been threatened on a batsman-friendly pitch at the Home of Cricket.
Mitchell Johnson's erratic bowling is Ricky Ponting's greatest worry at the break. Johnson, the supposed leader of the Aussies bowling attack, has conceded 53 runs from 8 overs (Economy rate: 6.62).
England scored at a steady rate of 4.34 runs per over and hit over 20 fours in the process.
DEJECTED: Peter Siddle looks away in disgust after being hit for four during the first session.
