TMS were saying England are hopeful that Jonathan Trott will be able to play a part in their second innings.
Cricket:India's tour of England 2011

I think the bowlers are as flat as the pitch. I'd back England to defend anything above 260, but certainly above 300 makes us favourites.
India haven't scored 300 this series...
Morgan out.
Just when you think one team is getting on top in this game, it all turns around.
This is why I'm still unsure of Morgan as a test cricketer. Don't think he has the technique or temperament to play a swinging/new ball.
A bit like Yuvraj.
A bit like Yuvraj.
Ah, Trott.
feck it.
Trott won't last too long.
That looked plum 
If only there was some kind of system of camera's spotting exactly where the ball would have gone and Trott would have walked...
That lucked plum
Long way down the pitch...
he just wanted to get off from that end
I bet BCCI will apply the UDRS System after this match. They're a bit slow.
- We've lost 2 quick wickets
+ Trott & Prior are in!
+ Trott & Prior are in!
Trott clearly looks uneasy. I'm guessing his role is to eat up as many balls as possible so that Broad, Swann and Bresnan don't have to face the new ball.
Not really...
feck you Hussain. Been repeating the same thing for long as people can remember.
Bloody BCCI and the DRS
well done with the bounce.
Shame Tremlett isn't fit - he'd have been a real handful with this uneven bounce.
England doing an India who did an England yesterday.
If India can get through the new ball unscathed they will have a great chance. The wicket is pretty flat once the shine is off the ball.
Lead of 272 isn't enough yet, I was jumping the gun earlier...
It depends what total we set them. 300 is a tough chase whatever the conditions in the fourth innings. 350+ puts England as firm favourites.
Absolutely scandalous how many runs have India conceded at third man.
Have you decided who you're supporting yet, or are you still hedging your bets?
Not had a third man with a swinging ball all day.
Sultan is simply a glory hunter.
It is a bit convenient that he supports Man Utd in football and India in cricket. He probably supports New Zealand in the rugby too...
My heart is with India - mind says England.
If India were playing Lancashire my heart would be with my County.
Basically I'm confused.
We won't win this.
England will win this series 2-0 or 2-1.
England will win this series 2-0 or 2-1.
Yes!
What if United, Lancashire, England and India were playing Hungry Hungry Hippos. United and England on one team, India and Lancashire on the other?
This England team is feckin' good.
Prior...Quality.
Prior...Quality.
The last five batsmen of England have scored around 400 runs while the Indian five has scored less than 100. Staggering difference.
This test match has been an exercise by Indian team on how to throw away any advantage at any stage of the match. Tremendous stuff.
I'd support the Hippos.
