Andrew Strauss is awarded Man of the match for his excellent batting display
Michael Atherton presents Strauss the award
MA: Well Andrew a great knock by yourself and a good win for England how do you feel?
AS: Well Michael I feel really pleased with the way I batted but the rest of the team backed me up as well. Credit should also go to the bowlers but especially Monty and Ryan the two new guys to the side.
MA: Yes this is a great start to the campaign. Even though all the Australian press has been abusing you do you think this sends them a message?
AS: Oh definetly. Many people in England and Australia doubted us and I hope today's display will have dispersed some of that.
MA: Well I'll let you get away so you can celebrate with your team. Once again congratulations.
AS: Thanks Michael
Here is a summary of what happened today
England's next match is a 4 day one against Western Australia. with many of the Australian side in this team it will look to be a tough match

The team appears to be vey inexperienced with Lewry making his England debut and many Shah, Key and Read also relatively new to international cricket
Western Australia have a very strong team with the likes of Gilchrist Hussey and Langer all experienced Australian internationalists.
Andrew Strauss wins the toss and decides to bat first. It is not too hot compared to the last time England were playing in Perth. The pitch is dry so pace bowlers will be expecting a lot of bounce. Not a cloud in the sky so there should be no rain delays.
The action is due to start in 15 mins so we will take a quick break. Coming up. The england innings. Is Strauss's decision to bat first a wise one?
Photoshopping some images would make your pres look even nicer. All the best stories have great photoshop talent, i am trying to incorporate more PS into my presentation, by creating my own scorecards on Photoshop and other more complex things. Its great fun tinkering with it. I am becoming quite fast and handy on PS now i feel. My next update, Studiotime will have some decent graphics. Now working on them .
