1st Investec Test: England v India at Nottingham

India 179/4 (63.4 ov)

I wonder if this short pitched line of attack is playing into Dhoni's hands. He's iffy outside off stump.

vijay on 99

Come on Vijay get that 100 and then tek guard again

huge 100 for vijay

Good. I hope India bat until at least tea time tomorrow.

If Dhoni scores a quick 50+ in a test, it's MOST likely a flat pitch. So there you go.
Good on Vijay though - fine ton. And Poms are really gonna miss Swanneh here BIG TIME.

259/4 is not a bad score to end a day, but I would have liked a 300+ to put the pressure on them.Vijay..Take a bow..!!,even though this looks like a flat pitch he did well this time and made sure India did not collapse.Look at Dhoni's wagon wheel. Runs all around the park! Even Vijay had not scored a single run in some parts for a long time.

If I was a captain, removing a fielder from mid on and placing at deep point would surely be a trick to toss back the pressure to the opposition..CC:Cook..

Hope Murali Vijay to score a double century and Dhoni to score a century.
