 Tim Curtis fared little better, out a few overs later for 2, also out LBW to Alderman.Robin Smith and David Gower went someway to stabilising the England innings, but when captain Gower was tempted to play at an off-cutter outside the off stump by Geoff Lawson he got an outside edge and was caught behind for 11.Once again keeper Jack Russell was called upon to try to provide some lower order resistance for a failing England line-up.
