England make 517-1 on final day of first Ashes test match with Alastair Cook and Jonathan Trott setting a series of records before Andrew Strauss declared. Australia replied with 107-1 having been set 297 to win from 41 overs. The match finished in a draw.
A draw at Brisbane after that first innings score is a good result for England, especially with that large second innings score for the loss of just one wicket. The Australians will draw comfort from their second innings score. If the batsmen won this test then what on earth will happen at the batting paradise that is Adelaide?
