England's home international summer began last night, and the start was just as dominant as how the summer ended last year, having regained the Ashes.
Once again, Marcus Trescothick shone with the bat, in making his 14th Test century. Given the mysterious circumstances in which he left the tour of India and the speculation which followed, England supporters and Trescothick himself will be relieved with his century in his first innings back.
Previous failures for his English county Somerset would not have done much for his confidence. But a hundred in difficult conditions against Northamptonshire broke his drought and Trescothick has again delivered for England.
Kevin Pietersen is the man not out at stumps, on 54. The crowd will be hoping for a repeat of his crazy 158 which secured England's Ashes.
Marcus Trescothick has made 5608 Test runs at 45.96.
