With the series level at 0-0 after the draw in Brisbane, Australia shake up their bowling attack for the second Ashes Test in Adelaide, drafting in fast bowlers Ryan Harris and Doug Bollinger
Australia captain Ricky Ponting enjoys an initial success by winning the toss and choosing to bat - a decision he probably regrets minutes later
England mob Jonathan Trott after he runs out Simon Katich with a direct hit from square leg in the opening over when the left-hander is slow to react to partner Shane Watson's call
Worse is to come for Australia as skipper Ponting edges Jimmy Anderson to Graeme Swann at second slip and departs for a golden duck for the fifth time in his Test career, leaving his side on 0-2
Anderson (centre) strikes again in an inspired opening spell as Michael Clarke falls in similar fashion for two, with Swann this time taking a more straightforward catch
The Adelaide Oval scoreboard tells a depressing tale for Australia after England's incredible start to the match
Brisbane centurion Michael Hussey has the job of rebuilding the innings with Watson but only has three to his name when he has a slice of luck as Anderson fails to cling onto a left-handed return catch
England find the going tougher as the ball loses its shine and Watson clouts Swann's off-spin for six on the way to an unbeaten half century as Australia go into lunch on 94-3
England need to break Australia's fourth-wicket partnership and Anderson comes up trumps soon after lunch when Watson is well caught by Kevin Pietersen, much to the delight of captain Strauss
Hussey reaches his 22nd Test fifty as he and Marcus North add 60 for the fifth wicket but it takes them 26 overs as England strangle the scoring rate during the afternoon session
North has often been vulnerable early in his innings during his Test career, so having faced 93 balls for 26 he is downcast after gloving a catch to the keeper off Steve Finn shortly before tea
England's fielding is committed and enthusiastic but Stuart Broad (pictured) is unable to prevent Brad Haddin collecting an all-run four as Australia again look to him and Hussey to bat them out of trouble
England spinner Graeme Swann finally gains reward for a hard day's toil when he picks up the prized wicket of Hussey, caught at slip for 93 (pictured), and then traps Ryan Harris lbw with his next delivery
Xavier Doherty hesitates in response to a call from Haddin and it proves fatal as England keeper Matt Prior whips off the bails for the second run out of the day to leave Australia in dire straits on 226-8
Left with only tail-enders for company, Haddin goes on the attack to reach 56 before he is last man out when he top edges an attempted hook shot and is caught in the deep
England's openers play out one over before the close but skipper Andrew Strauss is involved in an exchnage of words with opposite number Ricky Ponting as the players leave the field
