The Wall scores 34th Test century !

Dravid scored a century again. India were in a strong, commanding position at 267/4 but then were bowled out for 288, thanks to a hat trick from Stuart Broad.

Broad took his revenge by dismissing Yuvraj for 62 ( Yuvraj had hit him for six sixes in one over before ) and then dismissed Dhoni, Bajji and Kumar and took a rich six wicket haul

The Wall was in his inimitable best, but rued the advantage which India had lost !

"It was sort of frustrating at the way we played. Look we were 267 for four but were reduced to 273 for eight," said the Wall, who became the joint second Indian century maker in Test cricket with Gavaskar. ( after Sachin, of course ).

"It was not easy for the guys though. The pitch was difficult to bat and the guys tried their best. We need to pull our socks and come up with some strong performance in the remaining three days," said the solid batsman.

"It was tough conditions out there. It was a hot day. I had slight cramps towards the end of my innings. But I would say I am not tired but pleasantly weary. At the back of my mind, I think there is a lot of play left in the Test. We need strong performance in the remaining three days" said the dour batsman.

Yuvraj passed the Nottingham "Test". Playing in his first Test in England, he was a bit jittery in the initial stages. Taking the Wall's advice, he became confident and played a superb innings when India needed it most !
