Agreed. Three days of cricket and its all to play for. Winning the morning session tomorrow will be vital. If England can take a few quick wickets the pressure mounts on India. Conversely, if Vijay and Dhoni bat for most, if not all, of the morning, than England will face an uphill battle. Batting second at Lord is not really conducive to chasing down big totals.

England's Gary Ballance said a second successive Lord's hundred helped atone for the embarrassment of being photographed with his top off in a Nottingham nightclub.
Ballance was spoken to by coach Peter Moores following the incident after the drawn first Test with India.
He scored 110 to help England recover from 113-4 to reach 219-6 in reply to India's 295 in the second Test.
"It's great to score runs and even better after what happened," he said.

[color=rgb(28, 28, 28)]The Zimbabwe-born left-hander, 24, added: "I did not see that coming (the photograph) and it was a bit embarrassing to be honest.

[color=rgb(28, 28, 28)][/size]"I was probably a bit naive but I didn't really break any rules. I was just having a bit of fun after a Test match but I'll learn from it and I probably won't be doing that again.
[/color]
[color=rgb(28, 28, 28)][/size]"I felt a bit of pressure turning up on day one with what happened, but everyone was supportive. The coaches, the players and my family were backing me, saying mistakes happen and you've got to learn from them and move on."

It's ridiculous in this age of social media. Ballance did nothing wrong.
These folks expect people to behave like monks.

This is a fantastic Test. Ghosts. Moonwalking ground staff. Plunkett Fever. Who can ask for anything more?

Cook may just save the England selectors a tough decision. Five overs short last night, just 25 bowled this morning. Dismal
