Absolutely.
Strauss mentioned something about there being a crust. There's been other comments on how the pitch is incredibly dry. Get the runs now and make them bat when it is at its worst. Sounds very much like the pitch England beat Australia on where not much was happening then Broad took 5/6 wickets for not many.

Yeah, plenty more batting right about now please. Sreesanth sending down a few decent nuts at the moment, so there's still something to be had if the bowling is good enough.
Stat fact: Pietersen needs 31 more to reach an aggregate of 500 for the series for the first time.

A bit late, but what was KP doing trying to deflect Sreesanth's shy at the stumps in his previous over ?
I seem to recall Inzi given out obstructing the field for a similar incident. Would be a shame to get out in that manner, and it's a good thing he didn't make contact.

KP was stood in his crease though and the bowler fired the ball at him, shouldn't have played a shot but you can defend yourself.
I feel a bit for RP, there's no way he should have been picked but who's going to knock back a chance to play for their country but his bowling is getting slower and slower.

I don't care but damn Sreesanth is a lovable scamp.

There have been six 250+ partnerships in the last twelve months of Test cricket.
Four have been English. This is the fastest of the lot.

I'm with you, would be more humiliating then just another win, and there's never enough of Sreesanth being humiliated in cricket IMHO.
Grind them into dust.

He is a passionate young man, he can't help it. It's just exuberance you see.

He's 28 bowling short tripe because he's annoyed Pietersen's batting well. Utter tit.

Love that graphic from Sky, 'RP Singh 501 balls since last wicket' might as well say 'RP Singh, he's a bit useless really'.

Sharma on course for his 4th ton of the series.
Indian bowlers have brought up their century 9 times so far this series, none of England's have recorded one yet.
