Cook now being interviewed Bresnan is not match fit to play.
Samit Patel has been bought in presumably to partner Swann think just for his series Monty wouild hve been a better choice as he worked well with Swann in the tests still lets see what happens .

Re: Cricket
Its a one day game, Patel has been brought in for his batting as much as bowling, he is a very good batsman on his day, something that could never be said about Monty.

Monty is not a good batter for sure but with his bowling put England in a potentially match winning position in the tests with his wickets as such out in the UAE he is a proven bowler.
Samit Patel has a lot to deliver lets hope he is up to the job its a weighty problem. 
---------- Post added at 12:04 ---------- Previous post was at 10:44 ----------
Pietersen failed again 14 runs only,Trott out for 0 the Essex boys are out there together Cook and Bopara.
England 65-2.
Nasser just mentioned before the match he was speaking to Pietersen and he said he would like to move up the order to get away from the spin for a bit,what happens Pakistan open with spin.DOH.

Re: Cricket
Yes a brilliant one day innings by Cook and Bopara is looking very good as well.

Bopara now out dephone but it still looks good,compared to earlier time now for the others to come good.
At least Bopara got his 50.
189-3 is not too bad a place to be at this stage.
