Cook-Prior Partnership saves the day for England

Cricket portrait

The way the England team batted in their first innings it looked as though they will loose miserably by an innings but looking at their Second Innings the way England have played till stumps on day 4 the story is completely different despite loosing 5 wickets England are now in lead of 10 runs which is a fantastic effort considering their first innings performance.Alaistar Cook and Matt Prior played superbly.It will be interesting to see how it goes on the last day.Below is the scorecard.
