'mon the new kid!
A little congratulations is in order for one Ian Jonathan Leonard Trott. He battled his way to a maiden Test hundred today, and what a time to do it. England were 39-3 when Trott came to the crease, but a big partnership with skipper Strauss, and some very handy ones down the order with Broad, Swann and Anderson took England to a lead of 546.
Trott was eventually caught in the gully for 119 but received a standing ovation as he trotted (excuse the pun) off the field. The cameras caught a glimpse of his parents in the crowd - slightly embarrassing for his Mother who was shedding multiple tears - but a lovely, touching moment nonetheless. Well done Johnny boy!
