Nightwatchman Tim Bresnan made an admirable 38. Bresnan batted solidly for more than three hours until he pulled a James Pattinson bouncer straight to Chris Rogers in front of square.

Ian Bell edged Ryan Harris but survived. Steven Smith was claiming the catch at gully but umpire gave him not out. Third umpire was called for and he ruled it in favour of England after seeing the replays.
