Well having no third man signals to Ian Bell that he can score as many runs as he wants. Hence he's on 126* off 157 balls and he hasn't even been playing especially aggressively.
Malcolm Marshall refused to bowl without one and no one was talking about the lack of signals being sent to the other team.

Inexplicable. England are 165 in front, an out-of-form Morgan is out there with the 'keeper+ tail to come and a crocked Trott. A good burst could take, say, 3 wickets in the next 40 runs and suddenly India are back in it.

Weather for Nottingham tomorrow is cloudy with 78% humidity. Ripe for an Anderson swing class.
We just need to bat the day out now, should have 300 lead by then and India won't fancy chasing anything like that seeing as they couldn't even get 300 on the road at Lord's.

Meh, think there are other factors at play here. I'm probably pissing in the wind on this one, if you bowl as **** as India have, probably doesn't matter what field you have. You're going to have a bad day.
I did find it pretty nonsensical when there were calls for England to have one, though.

Have India given up? Raina FFS. 
Boycott will be mentioning his stick of rhubarb again.

Sreesanth seems a bit underbowled? Surely he could have had another spell now
scratch that, seems he was only off a few overs ago, still doesn't seem to have bowled much tho

Hes on to give the fast bowlers some respite with the new ball due shortly. Harbhajan has been off the field too.Have India given up? Raina FFS.

It's sessions like this that lead the more excitable members of the English & Australian fourth estates to say "I can't understand how India are #1" because, Christ, they look ordinary when the head goes down.
One slip (if that), boundary riders on both sides, singles all round the wicket...

Probably not fit enough, had moobs at taunton and while he looks fitter now he won't have the stamina to keep coming back.

No, Harby threw toys out of pram and by time new ball is taken England could be out of sight. Still 17 overs to go till new ball, bit early for resting the pacemen for it when you need wickets.

A bit hard to guage what a good total on this pitch. Looks dead flat at the moment, though not sure if it is the bowling or the pitch. In any case, if it continues to play like this England are not going to be comfortable without close to 400 to work with.

Also, a bit surprising that not many balls have misbehaved considering what we saw in the Indian innings off the cracks.
