What a start for England! The man the Aussies love to hate takes the first wicket of the day, in the second over of play, when Chris Rogers plays a shot into the hands of a grateful Michael Carberry. Australia are 67-1 Photograph: Jason O'Brien/Action Images

Shane Watson attempts a pull shot but only succeeds in sending Chris Tremlett's delivery skywards towards that man Broad, who takes an easy catch. Australia are 75-2 Photograph: David Gray/Reuters

Have the cricketing gods answered England's prayers? Dark clouds envelop the Gabba and deposit their wares. Alas, it's just a passing shower and play resumes after a break of 15 minutes Photograph: Anthony Devlin/PA

Australia continue to go on the attack after lunch and it's not long before Warner notches his century, which he's rather chuffed about Photograph: Gareth Copley/Getty Images

It's not going well for Graeme Swann, who ships 12 runs in one over Photograph: Ryan Pierse/Getty Images

England finally get the wicket they wanted when Matt Prior catches David Warner behind from a delivery by every Aussie's favourite pom. Australia are 233-3 and 124 of that total came from the bat of Warner Photograph: David Gray/Reuters

Three overs later, Matt Prior takes another catch when Steve Smith nicks Chris Tremlett's delivery to the England wicketkeeper. Australia are 243-4 Photograph: Ryan Pierse/Getty Images

Clarke doesn't get any further than 133 as he is skittled by Swann. Australia are 294-5 Photograph: David Gray/Reuters

It's not long until Swann is beaming again. He clips Bailey's stumps with the Aussie on 34. Bailey's wicket puts Australia on 305-6 and makes Swann the fastest man reach 250 wickets from debut for England Photograph: David Gray/Reuters

Brad Haddin is in fine form in his 50th Test and gets his half century in only 49 balls. He's stopped in his tracks three runs later when he is caught by Jimmy Anderson off Chris Tremlett.

England get off to a bad start when Ryan Harris sticks the ball through Michael Carberry's stumps in just the fifth over of their second innings Photograph: Chris Hyde/Getty Images AsiaPac

Things go from very bad to a lot worse for England when Jonathan Trott is caught by Nathan Lyon from Mitchell Johnson Photograph: Ryan Pierse/Getty Images AsiaPac

So the end of another one sided and disasterous day's play for England. Captain Alastair Cook has so far been composed and solid, and Kevin Pietersen has been calm and cautious, though they will both have to pull some performance out the bag for England to get something from this Test. At the close of play the tourists are 24-2 and need 561 to win. No, really: 561 Photograph: Cameron Spencer/Getty Images AsiaPac
