Stuart Broad and James Anderson stood out, with the former collecting three wickets and Anderson picking up one in Western Australia's 242-8 declared. Despite losing Alastair Cook before the close, Anderson was happy with England's first foray into competitive action and saw it as a good start to the tour. www.ecb.co.uk/ashes
