3.1

Flintoff to Hayden, FOUR, pulled with real oomph just behind square

6.2

Hoggard to Ponting, FOUR, too short, neatly driven off the back foot past the man at silly extra cover - he had no chance of doing much more than getting out of the way - and it races away

6.6

Hoggard to Ponting, FOUR, it's a four but Ponting walked across to one that swung and flicked it fine, dispersing the seagulls. had he missed, he would have been out ... but he rarely misses at the moment

13.1

Flintoff to Ponting, FOUR, that strays onto middle-and-leg and that's whipped strongly off his hips, evading the short leg. A strong shot from Ponting, nice

21.5

Harmison to Ponting, FOUR, hostile again, but down leg and Ponting latches on to that one very quickly indeed - quick feet, quick hands, and that's pulled down through square with great timing. That brings up 1000 runs at Adelaide for Ponting

23.6

Harmison to Hussey, FOUR, leg side, Hussey leg glances very fine ... a little too fine for his comfort as a flailing Jones gets close enough to it to cause a momentary wobble

48.3

Giles to Ponting, FOUR, short, wide, hammered for four. Poor bowling

49.6

54.2

Giles to Ponting, FOUR, we like that one - and so do the crowd - Ponting comes forward and launches a brave but bold lofted off-drive way which clears Harmison at long-off. Nice

65.6

Anderson to Hussey, FOUR, super shot, wide, overpitched and Hussey opens the face and drives through cover and the ball scurries away to the boundary

67.1

Anderson to Hussey, FOUR, that was a carbon copy of the last ball of Anderson's previous over ... Hussey opens the face and smacks that through the covers. Such balance when he played that

93.5

Flintoff to Gilchrist, FOUR, bang! He's laced it through point for four

106.1

109.3

Harmison to Gilchrist, FOUR, full, and Gilchrist cover drives with real class for the first time today

109.4

Harmison to Gilchrist, FOUR, bingo! Same ball, same shot, same result

111.4

Harmison to Gilchrist, FOUR, ah, shot - too full, down the leg side but Gilchrist pumps this down the ground with great timing - delicious shot

Anderson to Gilchrist, FOUR, poor line, really dreadful ball down the leg side and Gilchrist easily whips this for four through midwicket.

114.2

Giles to Gilchrist, FOUR, bang! Down on one knee, swept past Alastair Cook's skull at short-leg and racing to the deep midwicket boundary for four. Massive power.

115.6

Anderson to Warne, FOUR, ah, lovely shot from Warne this time - a touch of Des Haynes in that shot. Or maybe not. But it was beautifully timed past Pietersen this time, all along the ground for four

118.5

Pietersen to Warne, FOUR, brilliant from Warne, sweeping Pietersen with immense power in front of square

124.4

Giles to Clarke, FOUR, a touch of width and punished, Clarke stepping back and giving himself room to cut that one away. Four from the second it left the bat

127.1

Harmison to Warne, FOUR, short outside off, and that's whipped over the top of slips, with a late cut - reminiscent of Collingwood in this series

141.5

Anderson to Clarke, FOUR, wallop! full, Clarke gets his foot right to the pitch of the ball and caresses it past mid-off
