| Kevin Pietersen and Ian Bell take a run during their 350-run stand |
Kevin Pietersen and Ian Bell played brilliant innings to take England to a position where they have almost no chance to lose the test match.
India had a relatively nice opening session on second day as they bowled well in the to send back the openers, Andrew Strauss (40) and Alistair Cook (34), but then ran into Ian Bell and Kevin Pietersen, who broke their spirits and a few records in adding exactly 350 runs for the third wicket. Pietersen made an efficient, and occasionally, brilliant 175 and Bell was classy and chanceless throughout for his unbeaten 180.
Team India and fans will be hoping rain to save the test match and a label of ‘Series White Wash’. Let’s see what will be the strategy of Strauss and when he will decide to put India in for batting and exert pressure to force then follow on.
