England take three quick wickets at Lord's

LONDON (Reuters) - England took three wickets for eight runs to reduce Australia to 111 for five in their first innings on the second day of the second Ashes test at Lord's on Friday.

Australia dismissed England for 425 in the morning session.

* James Anderson took his third wicket of the Australia innings when Michael Clarke (1) clipped a full delivery to Alastair Cook at short mid-wicket.

* Andrew Flintoff was finally rewarded for some magnificent fast bowling when he bowled left-hander Michael Hussey for 51. Stuart Broad took an athletic tumbling catch at fine-leg off Graham Onions 21 balls earlier to dismiss opener Simon Katich for 48.

* Opener Phillip Hughes (4) gloved a delivery from the third ball of Anderson's second over down the leg-side to wicketkeeper Matt Prior. Anderson then dismissed captain Ricky Ponting caught for two at first slip by his opposite number Andrew Strauss.

Umpire Rudi Koertzen rejected an appeal from Anderson for lbw but, after consulting his colleague Billy Doctrove to see if the ball had carried, gave Ponting out caught.

* Anderson (29) and Onions (17 not out) added 47 runs from 53 balls for the final wicket in England's innings before Anderson was caught in the gully by Hussey off Mitchell Johnson. He had hit five fours off Johnson's bowling.

* Strauss, who had not added to his overnight score of 161, left the second delivery of the morning from Ben Hilfenhaus which nipped down the slope and struck his off-stump.

Graeme Swann (4) was caught at second slip by Ponting off Peter Siddle in the next over and Broad was bowled off the inside edge by Hilfenhaus for 16.
