Positive approach paying off for England

Broad, who began the day with a glorious cover drive for four off Peter Siddle and claimed two more boundaries off the same bowler in the third over, succumbed in unfortunate circumstances.

A delivery from left-armer Mitchell Johnson was veering down the leg-side until it clipped his trousers and was re-directed into his stumps. England continued to attack, however, with nightwatchman James Anderson and Graeme Swann both prepared to play their shots as England progressed to 376 for eight.
