Magic man Pietersen's gone for 12 adding three runs to his overnight score whilst Collingwood scored 32.
Past his use-by date I reckon and England 4 for 86.

England on the rack 6 for 103 and rain seems to be their only savoir.
Collingwood playing a beautiful innings at nearly a run a ball and is 45 not out.
unlikely with 80 overs remaining today and all of tomorrow
Broads gone as well but Collingwoods still hanging in there.
7/111.
I am watching the India v Bangladesh match
another shocker
Ind 169\6
Oh well no shame in drawing a series in SA
Eng 8 down
Shame they could'nt do it in the Ashes.Originally Posted by Loy Toy
Thoroughly outplayed in 3 of the 4 tests but as you said England should take the more positive points out of this series.Originally Posted by daveboy
The bowling and fielding is world class but the batting still needs work and possibly a few new players.
You cannot beat divine good luck and suspect umpiring decisions but having said that the Aussies have improved out of sight since the ashes...............has your lot?Originally Posted by daveboy
Were abit up and down but we hold the ashes won fair and square mate.Originally Posted by Loy Toy
The batting (apart from one innings) has been a fucking embarrassment. Heads should roll (preferable Yarpie ones).Originally Posted by Loy Toy
Collingwood gone
Yep you are correct and cannot wait for the return ashes battle in Australia.Originally Posted by daveboy
Pietersen has been a disaster and replacing him with Trott in the last ashes test won the day for England.Originally Posted by Marmite the Dog
Why the England selectors persevere with the arrogant twat leaves me bewildered.
England all out and Seth Efrica retains the Basil D'Oliveira trophy for squaring the series.
Australia sweep this series 3 nil against what I thought was a very promising Pakistani side with some great new and young talent both bowlers and batsmen.
By the way Daveboy that new hairstyle must of done something for Ricky as he scored just under 300 match runs so he can keep it now as far as most aussies are concerned (even though it looks like a rug)!![]()
He wants to be called Rick now not Ricky![]()
So is that what you Poms are gunna call him from now on instead of cvnt?
By the way I thought Broad's reaction when clearly gloving the ball down the leg side to the wicketkeeper made him look like a right twat! His immediate reaction and to signal the ball hit his forearm just isn't cricket.![]()
Not many walkers left in the modern game LT.
But the huge deflection, that ball moving at almost 100 miles an hour hitting his glove like a hammer and even though he was aware of the new appeal system still stood there like a big twat and claimed it hit his forearm.Originally Posted by daveboy
Then the look on his gob when he was given out was priceless, even Boycott said he was a twat.![]()
Tendulkar's 44th century was magnificent given the support from the other end
SR Tendulkar not out 105.
And out of a team score of 243 is brilliant.
Tendulkar is arguably the 2nd best batsman ever after Bradman who has always played the game fairly, letting his bat do the talking and is a credit to his country.
I hope he remains in the game for years to come.
Ponting is up there as well
