Stomach bug has affected many members of England team, however it becomes worst for Test batsman Ian Bell who was forced to drop training on Wednesday.
Although Bell is expected to come back for training but his current absence is troublesome. Among the rest of the England’s middle order, Bell has put a lot of effort with the turning ball and was expecting to make use of every moment of practice session.
James Anderson insisted the mood in the England camp remained cheerful and declined any thoughts that there was any split between the bowlers.
"The mood is pretty good, considering the position we're are in in this series," Anderson said. "There have not been any more meetings than usual. We always have a debrief after a game and, this time, it was a bit longer. We are an open and honest group and the guys have been open and honest in this last couple of days.
"As bowlers, our job is to take 20 wickets in a Test. We thought that might be a difficult job for us out here, but we have probably exceeded our expectations in that department. We're pretty pleased with the way it has been going.
