Dhoni nearly gets his first wicket in the fifth over he's ever bowled in test cricket. :eek:

TheCenturion · 22 Jul 2011 at 14:03

Wow, dhoni is bowling. Did praveen get banned?

TheCenturion · 22 Jul 2011 at 14:37

This is what happens when you don't have zaheer

Well done KP - great hundred!

ringo747 · 22 Jul 2011 at 14:55

The game changing fast - 2 wickets in an over from Kumar.

Weebull · 22 Jul 2011 at 14:55

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

Great spell from Kumar, plenty of swing still out there.

Alpherah · 22 Jul 2011 at 15:08

Well that makes a mockery of the new DRS.
Rules say you cannot appeal LBW anymore.
Morgan didn't hit it, given out .. think it must just be a terrible LBW decision as he feels the ball hit his pad and walks.
But its actually a terrible caught behind decision.

Well done India, well done.

What a beauty of a ball from Kumar - swinging in, then moving away off the seam. Lovely.

Cosimo · 22 Jul 2011 at 15:19

Some wickets since I've come back. 282-5.

I think he walked for the caught behind. I can't see any test batsman walking for a leg before decision in this case. If he didn't feel he was out he didn't have to walk; DRS or not, that would have forced the ump's to have an on-field review.

We'l see later when they (inevitably) speak to him after the close of play.
And besides - he never walked before the finger went up..

-edit-
Morgan said he hit it, which means he's a complete idiot and doesn't deserve to be in the team.

MoratJG · 22 Jul 2011 at 15:25

Sky reporting he felt he hit it and walked for that

TheCenturion · 22 Jul 2011 at 15:27

Kp has hit the ball to short leg so many times. Why is there no man there?

Or, you know, he just made a mistake.

Mr Jack · 22 Jul 2011 at 16:23

Nice to see KP stepping up to plate here.

Weebull · 22 Jul 2011 at 16:33

Gradually wresting back control of the game.

Pietersen is actually playing better since getting his century. The loss of form has clearly been playing on him.

Like I said, out of form players find their form against India

Weebull · 22 Jul 2011 at 16:51

Four runs. No, actual runs.

Rich_L · 22 Jul 2011 at 17:20

Pietersen you're a complete ****** but I love you today

No problem with Morgan walking tbh, nothing wrong with a bit of honesty
