    Broad gone

    221 all out

    India

    Harbhajan with the wicket but more importantly, Sachin with arguably the greatest catch of all time

    India 24-1 at the close

    That was dull

    How do part time batsmen in Broad and Swann score so quickly and entertainingly whilst world class batsmen in Dravid and Laxman bore the fuck out of everyone?

    Swann btw went for an xray

    That's a poor attempt. You wouldn't have said anything if you found it truly boring. That was an amazing 15 overs at the end. England's bowling was flawless and Dravid and Laxman were god-like in their technique and defence as always.

    Against bowling of that quality, I'd say there is nobody in world cricket apart from Laxman and Dravid (and I include Tendulkar in that) who could've survived that spell. Every ball was 85-90mph, swinging, seaming away just outside off and then suddenly, the inswinger would jump up to ribcage. Unplayable for 99.999999999% of batsmen.

    Same question was asked to the pundits by the SSN lot.

    Fair play to Michael Holding. His answer made sense.
