England vs New Zealand – 3rd Test – Trent Bridge, Nottingham – Day 1

Kevin Pietersen has been oft criticized for being too irrational and inconsistent! But not today. He was rational and scored 115. While a few of my friends are mulling over the IPL, i thought it was time to move on in life. Everything you love might go away, but this one will come back.

Back to the test match, the Black Caps won the toss and decided to field on a typical Trent Bridge wicket. The English batsman struggled early on, with Cook, Vaughan and Collingwood getting out to bowling beauties, O’Brien being the wrecker-in-chief! The score was 86/5. KP loves being there when the team is at five down, as the Aussies would know. Being lent able support from Ambrose, he piled on the runs, thought eventually getting out to a Corridor of Uncertainty Delivery. England ended the day at 273/7.

Brief Scores:

KP Pietersen 115(223)
TR Ambrose 67(148)

IE O’Brien 4/61
KD Mills 3/58

More on day 2. This is turning out into a fantastic test match
