So good it makes me dizzy!

Cricket Correspondent Paul Newman’s breathless live updates yesterday morning for Mail-Online.

11.10am

(Chris Rodgers’ dismissal and Stuart Broad’s 300th Test wicket) — Well done Stuart Broad! What an achievement. What a start for England. And Australia’s leading runscorer has gone in the first over of the day!

11.12am

And Smith has gone too!! What a start! Australia are 10 for two at the end of the first over! Another quiet start, then. This Test cricket lark is so dull...

11.15am

(Warner wicket) — I can’t keep up with this! I think we can say Alastair Cook made the right decision to bowl first then! And to give Mark Wood the new ball ahead of Steven Finn. This is not quite the situation Michael Clarke would have wanted to come in and face with his career on the line. I’ve excelled myself in my exclamation mark count this morning...

11.23am

(Shaun Marsh out) — Well this is sensational from Stuart Broad and calamitous for Australia. It’s really good bowling but Australia look clueless against line and length well pitched up bowling. And now they have their two out-of-form batsmen at the crease. This is making me giddy, it really is. Can Australia possibly recover from this?

11.31am

(Stokes catches Voges) — What a catch!!!!!! I think I will have to break my exclamation mark record for that one. Sensational from Ben Stokes!!!! That was behind him! Stuart Broad has four wickets! I’ve never seen anything quite like this from an England team, any team, I really haven’t. Meanwhile Michael Clarke looks like he could be out at any minute...

11.43am

(Clarke out) — That was just a desperate shot from Michael Clarke. He looked like a man bereft of all form and hope there. It was a wide halfvolley but when the force is with you funny things can happen. A five wicket haul for Broad before 11.45am. And the Test started five minutes late too.
