Blimey.

A great start in the cricket from England today....

<doh>

Moderately good recovery though. Good job we've got Cook in the team and Morgan has looked comfortable since he came in.

Definitely time for Petersen to be dropped though, it doesn't matter how good you are on paper if you can't do it on the pitch!
 
Yep, but Bopara will come in and he's probably not good enough.

Bopara has never really had a long run in the test team though. I'd like to see him get a chance. Its not like he can do worse than Peterson on current form and he may surprise us. Peterson has taken his eye off the ball and needs a rest.
 
Yep, its Pietersen giving his wicket away cheaply again thats the most frustrating thing about it today.

Agreed. Top class knocks from Morgan and Prior though, so impressed with those guys so far today, Morgan 76, Prior 50 - both not out and not hanging about. Great cricket from them!
