Collingwood and Jaffer
Paul Collingwood and Wasim Jaffer stood out on the second day of the first Test between England and India at Nagpur. Collingwood finally made his maiden century. When I've watched the highlights I'll post some more thoughts, and I'm particularly keen on seeing Steve Harmison's innings - he made 39 from nearly as many balls! India, though I've not caught much of the day's play, India look disconcertingly calm at the crease and have closed at 136 for 1. Interestingly, they too fell well below 3-runs-per-over...

Wonder how Collingwood felt on 81 with the 9th wicket went down & Monty strolling out to meet him? Odds against a ton at that point must have been pretty low.

Quite! I'm looking forward to seeing the highlights.

3 wickets for Freddie because of reverse swing..
2 wickets for Panesar because of poor shot selection..
1 Run Out courtesy of Pieterson..
1 Run Out from Collingwood, who's still 2 inches above the ground..
And Hoggard gets the last 2 wickets..
If the above does not happen, India gets 632 and it's all over folks...

Hoggard is bowling his tail off..
What the heck is Harmison doing?
Can you send Blackwell home and
just tell the world he is injured?
