Blimey, it's only Anderson but if we lose Trott or/and Cook before the end we are in the brown stuff once again!

Ok I am indian so am partly delighted about this but .........

Did these English batsmen learn sod all in the UAE earlier this year?  Still thrusting at the ball which is turning fractionally with hard hands making every ball look like a hand granade .....

England never got within light years of a bat pad or making a ball spin past the edge.  Or was Pujara playing on a different pitch?

On the upside still plenty of batting to come and as the ball gets older it may grip and turn less.

I repeat my earlier point about batting like dicks.

Although the Ashwin to Compton ball was a bit good.

Massive partnership needed from Cook and KP, expect the latter to face plenty of Ohja & Yuvraj on Day 3.

Agreed.  Its a big hour.  I think as the ball gets softer it will grip less and get easier. But if India whip out a further couple early the pressure for the rest may too much for the rest.

Though with Anderson out the way it means England actually do bat to 11 with Swanny there who averages over 25!
