Saw the pitch on news highlights and came to the conclusion that the pitch curator was G.Swann

Anyone watching who can give any indication on the quality of Cook's captaincy?

Do England have a pace bowling all-rounder because surely it would make more sense to play two spinners with a pace bowling all-rounder. Its not like the English pace bowlers had a great series against SA either.

Stuart Broad would like to believe that he's a pace bowling allrounder.

I reckon KP should be made to bowl all the time and told that if he can't get an average under 30 with the ball in this series he'll be dropped. KP is an offie though

I watched a few hours of this last night, that England attack was rather pedestrian

Bresnan bowling 125k pies from one end and KP bowling his nude balls from the other end and finally gets a wicket from a rank full toss.

Poms looked totally disinterested.

He has got to be one of the biggest wankers in world cricket especially with all the sh*t that comes out of his mouth. He speaks as if he's the greatest player of all time.
agree, if I was the ECB, I'd treat him in the same stupid way KP has been treated by the ECB this year

Samit Patel cops another rough LBW decision.

Indian commentators defending it.

Poms 5/200, need another 130 to make India bat again.

India have been getting dodgy LBW's and caught at bad pad decisions in their favour over there for half a century - imagine god-like batting averages coming down if they had technology in play up there.

Prior having a good game couple of 40s, this one in the second dig could lead to a big 100 I think

Cooky no 135

Poms only 68 behind, India will chase around 100-150, last 2 sessions tomorrow, game on
