England v South Africa First Test, Second Day

So they have restarted play England have moved onto 323-3 with Pietersen on 108 and Bell on 84. We should be looking to get at least 500 from the position.

Be good if Bell can get a century, Collingwood is going to be under serious pressure when he comes in as I reckon either him or Bell will be dropped for Flintoff. Bell should keep his place in the side after this innings.

Bell's got his century, eigth of his career. The score is 387-3 with Pietersen at the other end on 146.

You beat me to it Great innings from Bell, just when he needed it to.

Pietersen is finally out for 152, great innings from him, and the score is now 403-4.

Very important innings for Collingwood, he needs to do something here.

Collingwood is out for 7, that could be him dropped now. 413-5 now.

At tea England are 535-6. Bell is still there on 171 with Broad who has just hit his second test 50, and is on 54.

Great effort from the guys, hopefully Bell can get 200, and Broad get 100

OMG poor Bell that is really harsh to get out for 199! Great innings though, and England declare on 593-8.

Gutting for Bell! Great to see England scoring heavily though - would be a shame to see Collie dropped even though he hasn't been playing his best cricket...
