England wins first Test against India

Live action, day 5, at Lords

England won (convincingly) the first of four Tests against world #1 India. Kevin Pietersen showed the up side of his talent with a double century: 200 runs.

This is a great time for alternate sports; swimming world championships going on this week, a cricket Test series between two of the best teams in the world, and the end of the Tour de France, to an Australian who just might be clean. We can hope, anyway. Same goes for swimming, but they are drug-tested so much that they're catching practically anything (even though sprinter Cesar Cielo got off with a warning after SOMETHING was found in his blood - he claimed it was from one of those pesky contaminated supplements).

Men's 200 freestyle finals and women's 100 backstroke finals tomorrow will be GOOD.
