Day 1 analysis: Aussies in charge as Lyon triggers collapse (Durham)

England stumbled to 238-9 after spinner Nathan Lyon took four of the nine wickets to fall.

England got to 149-2 before Lyon triggered the collapse as he had Trott (49) and Kevin Pietersen (26) caught before Bird trapped Cook. Stuart Clark provides the expert analysis of a gripping day of test cricket.
