2nd Ashes Test England v Australia 2009 Day 2 Report Lord's

Australia still behind 70 runs to avoid the follow-on and might be facing a 75-year unbeaten at Lord’s record defeat from England who have absolutely turned things around in this 2nd nPower Test. England have exhaustively dominated the first two days and yet looks even more promising for the next few days to come. Yesterday was all about Andrew Strauss, today it was James Anderson who led from the front, first by frustrating Australia’s bowlers and then with four important wickets. Andrew Flintoff bowled a fast and fiery spell and apart from Katich and Hussey, the Australians haven’t looked effective at the crease. England have put themselves in a position of supremacy which can lead to their victory this weekend.
