Pietersen may well get the other century for you, he is halfway there as I write this. As is Cook.
I am flattered that the cricket didn't want to go on without me watching it tonight, but how stupid was the day's play calling tea the second the sun comes out after a few hours of nothing. I really don't see any reason why they should have taken tea at all tonight - what a stupid waste, sometimes tere really ought to be more common sense in cricket. I loved reading over the Cricinfo commentary of the rain delays.
I am enjoying what I have seen since tea, Cook and Pietersen batting beautifully. Sri Lankan fielding has been good too, bowling a bit ordinary though.
I do have a couple of really trivial complaints about the play since tea. Seeing Sangakkara field anywhere other than keeper is freaking weird. I know I haven't seen him keep in a while but in the last test he at least had the courtesy not to field anywhere else either. And because he's captaining the side this time the cameras are on him a lot and it's weird.
My other complaint is the sound this ball is making when it is struck. I usually love the sound of bat on ball (because I am weird like that), but it's been sounding oddly springy tonight. Probably because the ball got a bit of moisture in it, but good shots don't sound as crisp as they ought to. It's strangely disappointing.
