Eggs not hatched

Yesterday's disappointment that the game was most likely heading for a draw has become a feeling of unease that we're going to get beaten. The bowlers did pretty well. When the last wicket fell, the commentators were even talking about the possibility of England getting a lead. Now all the talk is of the pitch breaking up (watch it, Shahid) and England needing to bat the whole of tomorrow. Whenever people start muttering that Pietersen is getting a bit big for his boots, he seems to do the business, so here's hoping that that's the case tomorrow. Bell also seems to be playing pretty well. Freddie seems clueless against Kaneira but then he seemed clueless against Warne at first. See straws, clutch them, that's my policy.
I didn't see Inzaman's run out but it is a shame if the good spirit in which the series has been played is dissipated by that incident. Unusually, I agree with Agnew about this: throwing the ball at the stumps like should be strongly discouraged.
