It started with Dinesh Karthik yesterday
and ended with VVS Laxman this morning.

Jaffer was lucky to top score with his 58 off 156 balls,
having been dropped by Prior when on no score.

Tendulkar score 37 off 78
Ganguly, who can also bat a bit, scored 34 off 82
RP Singh played a true nightwatchman defended 40 deliveries for 17.

The stars Karthik, Dravid, Laxman and Dhoni were eclipsed.

Conceding a deficit of 97 runs.
Could have been a lot worse.

James Anderson shone the brightest, taking 5 wickets with an ER of 1.7!
collecting the scalps of likes of Dravid, Tendulkar, Ganguly and Dhoni.

On the third day at lunch,
India trails by 105 runs
England has all their wickets in hand to press the advantage home.

It seems Indius medius the constellation of Indian batsmen,
have forgotten to twinkle in the London gloom.
