100 to Pieterson. About time he applied himself for the team effort.

Re: England v India, who is going to win
A couple of quick wickets, 5 down for 276, a decent position but England need to push on while the batting conditions remain good.
Will be interesting to see how the bowlers get on, advantage England so far.

Re: England v India, who is going to win
What exactly have they lost? Are you really English or just doing an impression of a defeatist Pom? The fact that England produce any competitive sportsmen is a wonder given the 'yeh but they'll lose' attitude.
Seriously, get behind them, it's 1 vs 2 in the World ... <sighs>

Yup, Seen plenty of shite but times have moved on ... I think it's time to drift off to kip with TMS. Shame I'll be asleep as they amass a decent total ...

Not bad at all, an agressive declaration too, good to see.
Fair play to KP for his knock.
Now it's Jimmy Time.

Re: England v India, who is going to win
Well done KP, i have been one of the people questioning him over the last couple of years but to score a daddy hundred at Lords against the number 1 team, top stuff.

It has to be up there with his best innings, not from a blood and thunder point of view but the way he paced himself. A <cliche on>pivotal day for the series</cliche off> tomorrow.
