(CNN) -- Kevin Pietersen scored an unbeaten double century as England built up a commanding 306 runs lead after the third day of the second Ashes Test at the Adelaide Oval on Sunday.
Pietersen was 213 not out with Ian Bell on 41 when rain washed out play after tea with England 551 for four wickets in reply to Australia's 245.
England will look the press on the final two days for a victory to put them 1-0 ahead in the five-Test series, but their hopes could be hit by an indifferent weather forecast.
"I think rain, no rain there's a really good chance that we can win this Test match," Pietersen told Sky Sports.
"We believe there's enough time to win the Test match". CNN
