[Cricket] Cricket- 1st Test, Manchester, August 21 - 25, 2024, Sri Lanka tour of England
- Thread starter Eeyore
- Start date
Around 200 more than they’ll need to.
SL 95/4 (but effectively 5 down, with Chandimal retired hurt with a likely broken thumb)
That's an odd one... no ball given because Smith has his gloves in line with the stumps when the ball was delivered.
124-4, leading by 2
124-4, leading by 2
Sri Lanka effectively 13 for effectively 5
The rare “double effectively” in play here

Apparently no break, and could bat if necessary.
Root and Atkinson both spill chances... 158-4, lead 36
BANG BANG 175-6... or maybe just BANG... that looks like an edge.
175-5

Horrible flashbacks to this match (which I watched pretty much all of because I somehow got away with missing school for a strained achilles tendon)

Another LBW... reviewed... and another nick. Umpires making a fair number of mistakes.
WTF was that? You’ve just seen Mark Wood walk off and you play an agricultural swipe to Joe Root (who’s only on to complete the over) and hit it straight up in the air, absolutely stupid dismissal
England cantering toward victory now and will probably wrap the game up tonight with 23 to win, Jamie Smith again playing well after an early wobble
England win by 5 wickets, so an extra rest day secured.
