2. James Anderson
Anderson produced a peach of a delivery in the last session of play to dismiss Australian captain, and batting mainstay, Michael Clarke. He tried to explore the shorter length in his initial overs but that tactic was destined to fail.
He must stick to his strength and try to extract swing by bowling a fuller length. Australia are tottering at four down trailing by 140 runs and a good spell of bowling in the first hour may even see England getting a handy lead for the second innings.
He will be up against a right-hand, left-hand combination in Steven Smith and Phil Hughes but that should not be a problem for him given that he can move the ball either way with equally brilliant execution.
