I've got TMS on, Vaughan's now out and there's still a lot of runs to get but if Strauss and Peiterson stay in for a while then we should get a win that didn't seem possible at the end of our first innings.

Yeah such a turnaround. Looking odds on for the win now but with England you never can tell!! Bizarrely, seems to be the same kind of situation develpoing in the Windies Ozzie game - home team with big first innings defecit bowls out the oppo cheaply in 2nd innings and has a chance of turning the game around.

Fingers crossed for the afternoon session, I fancy KP could quite easily lose his ego battle with Vettori.

He does look like he's forgotten all he knows, but he's been there before and with a bit of luck the confidence gained from this win and a decent innings will get him back on form. However he needs an operation on his shoulder and it probably makes sense to get this done now rather then when he's in a rich vein of form.

The only problem is he's one day captain and there's a series coming up... I doubt he'd want to duck out of that!
