Pieterson and Vaughan score hundreds as England post a huge total
England (1st Innings) 385-4 85 Overs
M. Vaughan 131*(192) Tapash Baisya 1-58
P. Collingwood 9*(25) Mohammad Rafique 1-72
K. Pieterson 113(145)
David Gower: So England are right on top of this test match scoring almost 400 runs in the first day itself. They also have six wickets in their hand, which means they can still up the already flowing run rate.
Geoff Boycott: Yes and the two men responsible for putting England in this dominant position are none other than Michael Vaughan and Kevin Pieterson. Well this Pieterson lad surely is turning into a true champion. After impressing in South Africa, he has shown a lot of promise in the more tougher Test version of the game as well. Things are looking very bright for English cricket with this sudden availability of highly talented youngsters from county cricket.
David Gower: Yes indeed Geoffery, both Cook and Pieterson have impressed in this match. Pieterson has scored his maiden test century in his very first game, and dint he do in some style.
But one must not forget Michael Vaughan, who is still unbeaten on 131, at the end of the first days play.
Geoff Boycott: He has played very well, playing some elegant shots. Both their hundreds have put England in this very good position in such an early stage of this test match. Bangladesh are already feeling the heat. But they deserve it, as their bowling has been pretty poor. Just a few good balls here and there, but otherwise very very ordinary.
