Rumour has it that Kap was not out, his hand was not on the bat when the ball hit it. Makes it even better !

Now England has to kick on and win the next test to have any chance in the series. After which it looks like Glen will be back.
I can't see there being any draws (weather permitting) so the above scenario will leave us having to win one of the final two tests against Glen and Shane.
If we don’t win in Manchester we will have to win the two final games against Glen and Shane and that would be an inordinately difficult task.
Come on England, it's now or (maybe) never.

Bret Lee may be out of the third test:

I sympathise somewhat, but then I remember how we lost Jones on the first morning of the Ashes two years ago and I realise that this is all natural justice.
