How come? He didn't try to hit Gambhir, I hope Gambhir is alright though as that looked ****ing painful...

Silly position to have a man for prior, always more likely to get hurt than achieve anything, he's not the sort of batsman who's likely to get caught at short leg...

Dont be ridiculous, it was an accident. It looked very painfull mind

An illustration of the other frustrating thing about Broad...he's really not a bad batsmen when he puts his mind to it. His 169 wasn't completely fluke, he should be averaging more than 27 certainly...

Lead now 362, I'll be happier with another 40.

Mr Jack · 24 Jul 2011 at 16:08

Cracking stuff from Prior and Broad.

Rich_L · 24 Jul 2011 at 16:21

I think it's fair to say Broad has answered his critics in some style this Test, I'm very impressed actually.

Am I right in thinking he has a Test ton at Lords already?

*edit* Yes I am, it was the dodgy Pakistan test!

Yup it is. Another thirty or so and we’ll declare.

Monkeymatt · 24 Jul 2011 at 16:27

First Prior injures the other team now his own team, somebody lock him up before he causes more pain

Rich_L · 24 Jul 2011 at 16:29

100 off 129 balls partnership starting at 108/6. Ballsy.

Cosimo · 24 Jul 2011 at 16:44

Lol six

Rich_L · 24 Jul 2011 at 16:45

What do we reckon, target of 451 to win declaration?

Lol! India bring men up to stop the single to get Prior on strike, Broad promptly hits 2, 4, 4, 1

And Prior gets it anyway with a 4 off the last ball!

Cosimo · 24 Jul 2011 at 16:54

Great ton from Prior.

Cosimo · 24 Jul 2011 at 16:58

That's it 269-6 declared. India 458 to win.

Bear · 24 Jul 2011 at 16:59

Awesome century from Prior and fantastic save from him and Broad

It'll be interesting to see who opens, Gambhir is away and Tendulkar isn't allowed to bat today, Dravid I guess then! :cool:

Cosimo · 24 Jul 2011 at 17:43

Yes, Mukund out, 19-1.
