KP dropped hey, will probs ton up now
Reckon he'd have tonned-up if he hadn't been dropped TBH. Anyway, though, I don't think it was really a drop - he barely touched it - and it certainly wasn't realistically catchable. Not given the amount of force Edwards was being pulled in the other direction with.

There's just enough erratic bounce starting to creep into this to suggest that come Thursday it could be rather an awkward proposition to bat on. Will make any decision-making over the follow on increasingly complex.
The ARG in non-back-to-back Tests at 0-1 down is one ground where I'd probably favour the use of the follow-on.

Ow. FFS, I hate watching those. :mellow:

"Man you drive me nuts with your biased commentary!" grumbles Peter Davies. "First Pietersen is settled then he is like a jack in the box.... yada yada yada." Yes Peter, settled against a lacklustre Taylor, then caught unawares by a pumped-up Edwards. Is it really so hard to comprehend?

And :laugh: at Tony Cozier recalling the Powell-McCullum instance. I so wish I'd actually seen that live.

Anyone know if Chickie's on today? Until now in the series we've only had Bob Marley And The Wailers in various guises but so far today we've already had Kool And The Gang and McFadden And Whitehead. ITSTL.

Hope Fred gets some time to bat, could be a good opportunity to break his looooooong run without a ton

Interesting that England's 5 specialist batsmen could all individually outscore the 51 all out effort in the last innings.
