Seems like a very decent bloke and might keep pietersons spokesman Mr Piers Morgan quiet for a bit.
Got a feeling it's going to be his day when dropped pig first ball
He passed Pietersen to become England's fourth highest scorer earlier in the innings. That's got to be satisfying.
I hope so. I like cook and hate kevin.
Anything that shuts up Piers Morgan is a good thing in my book, absolutely loathe the man and hate that he gets given such prominent soap boxes to spew from.
Great stuff so far. You could really feel the pressure just before lunch as he was creeping to the 50 - bet he didn't have a bite to eat.
After he got there it really did feel like he'd make the ton and it won't half be a good knock if he gets it.
Oh bugger. Still a good knock.
Five more runs and his whole mindset would have changed.
Ah well, it should still help for next time. Another ton surely coming soon.
Have to say whilst I agree with many he is not the best leader, he is a great batsman when he is on song. Delighted for him to lift some weight off his back.
I think he might well hand over the captaincy at the end of this series but hopefully he will have done to cement his claim as our best top order batsman again.
