[lchathuranga]

India 288 all out. So a lead of 67 it is. India went from 267-4 to 273-9

Broad getting an hat-trick

Broad has said “ the hat-trick won’ t mean much if England don' t go on and win this Test match
..........
Bell continues to lead England' s fightback and is looking real good in the middle and set for a big one; Pietersen has been struck by an Ishant delivery under the ribs. But, the real action has been in the commentary box where Ravi Shastri and Nasser Hussain were involved in a slightly heated debate regarding the DRS. Hussain said he has earned the right to comment after playing 96 Tests and adds he is paid for expressing his opinions by Star Cricket. Shastri says he is of the opinion India has the right not to use the DRS if they don' t trust the technology and clarifies his remarks about jealousy around India being No. 1 were directed at the British press and not Hussain. It went on for a while with both making valid points and Harsha Bhogle trying to play peace maker.

55.2 Sreesanth to Pietersen, OUT , Sreesanth is the man! Massive breakthrough, that partnership was looking matchwinning. Loose shot in the end. It was back in the channel but unlike the ball before Pietersen aimed a booming drive and could only edge through to Dhoni

India's best chance of chasing a gettable total seems to be
if they can see Bell's back in a
hurry, if at all
