Hoggard will keep his place, he is stunningly consistent and there are few better bowlers in world cricket to left handers, Flintoff is gonna be given time to recover properly, but he'll always be picked because he is an absolutely phenomenal bowler and on his day a more than competent batsman (which will hopefully be back in form if he's only batting for the next couple of months).
Anderson can be brilliant, but he is the most inconsistent cricketer I have ever seen, the next test he'll get hit all over the place. As an example of what Anderson can be like, during the one dayers against the Windies, he bowled something like 8 or 9 overs, 3 of which were maidens, the remaining 5/6 overs went for 15 an over, thats just what he does.
As for today, with the amount of swing Sidebottom and Anderson were getting, England need to be really wary this afternoon, Sree Santh (as he wants to be known) was bowling superbly the first two days and KP Singh is a fine bowler as well. They should be aiming for a lead of 200-250 by the end of the day, hopefully with at least 8 wickets intact, give KP a chance to have a bit of rat-a-tat at them in the morning.
