England's Summer Test Series

[Chazza]

269-2 Ton up for Bell, really pushing hard to stay at 3

KP should get his aswell barring any crazy swipes at a dodgy left handed spinner

[Shaggy]

However well Bell does, Trott is undroppable I reckon.

This is great though. You know if Cook and Strauss fail, there's every chance Bell, KP, Morgan, Prior or whoever else will make a stack.

It's great having depth in the team after so many years seeming to rely on one or two decent test level players.

I think there is a case for having a more flexible batting order though - if we want to make runs quickly and then declare say, we could bump Bell up the order and keep Trott there in most situations.

Pietersen dropped on 102. Should've pouched that.

Not to drop Trott just change the line up, Bell bats 3 for Warks and Trott 4

England could go Bell, Trott, KP, Morgan, Prior

KP ton up 102 in 148 balls

Yeah sorry, poor choice of word, meant unmoveable from no.3. He's done absolutely nothing wrong - on the contrary, he's been phenomenal - and Bell's record at six is great.

[Chazza]

Its nice to have options

I seem to recall you've always been a stalwart supporter of Bell.

They said on TMS earlier that his wife is called Chantelle. Chantelle Bell.

I trust you are being sarcastic.

426-2

[Shaggy]

Make that 439-2

Bell with two successive sixes

[Reece]

And then two sixes in a row from Bell. Taking the piss now

[Shaggy]

Pietersen gone for 170 odd FFS.

[Buzzo]

Pietersen gone for 170 odd FFS.

Your a hard taskmaster..!

Incredible days batting from England Just short of 400 runs. Can see a 700 or so total and then seeing what India are made off in the middle.

[ChesterDave]

Can't see any logic in the NWM. Need to knock up at least 600 by lunch tomorrow the go for taking 20 wickets without batting again. England can't afford to bat again before India's second innings.
