England vs India - 2nd Test Match - Day 2

England: 221 (68.4 overs) - Broad 64, Strauss 32, Kumar 3-45, Sharma 3-66.
India: 288 (91.1 overs) - Dravid 117, Yuvraj 62, Broad 6-46, Bresnan 2-48.
England: 24-1 (11.0 overs) - Bell 9*, Strauss 6*, Sharma 1-9.

India started the 2nd Day brightly and reached 267-4, before Broad took 5 wickets for 0 runs off 16 balls, including a hat-trick to dismiss India all out for 288, a lead of 67. Earlier in the day, India looked set for a big total with Laxman scoring 54, Yuvraj scoring 62 and Dravid scoring 117, before Broad's hat-trick caused a batting collapse allowing the bowler to get 6 wickets for the innings, with Bresnan and Anderson both taking 2 wickets. England then lost Cook early for 5, having been caught off Sharma's bowling. Strauss and Bell (batting at 3 because of Trott's injured shoulder) saw England through to the close at 24-1.

Also... Sebastian Vettel took pole by 0.163 seconds from Lewis Hamilton, with Jensen Button 3rd. And finally... TacticalBet got 3 out of 4 predictions correct for today's SPL fixtures, with Rangers and Hibernian's wins and Motherwell's draw, with only St Mirren v Aberdeen going against our bet with a home win for St Mirren.
