Aw, shame. You can see why Cook still likes to shelve the cover drive for long periods, he's still a touch shaky there. Felt the pressure to score quickly I guess.

Hopefully Bell can play the kind of innings he did in Cardiff now. Need a lead by the close.

If I were a Test Captain i would nearly always have a 3rd man. Especially instead of deep square leg or deep point.

Could save so many runs.

Good signs anyway. Only one of the top eight doesnt have a decent score from the series. An in-form line-up will be essential in the next series.
Got one last game didn't he, which seems to have give him some confidence.Scrub that,just realized your talking about Strauss.
Take some of that, lovely shot.

These high medium pace, low fast pace bowlers are just feeding KP's strengths. Why oh why isn't Herath bowling?

Innings run rate no at 4 per over.

Bell did well to even reach that last one, let alone smack it to the boundary!

This pitch has still loads of bounce in it, even Perera is ,making the wicket keeper stretch, of a decent length.

Btw just to whinge a bit more, anyone else think in the middle of June they should just play as many overs as they can while the light holds.

Longest day is a couple of days away so in theory light would hold for hours.

Just annoying to lose so many overs and finish in bright light.
