[jakarta]

Back to back centuries by an England wicketkeeper, can't remember when that last happened!

Shouldnt we declare and give SL a nasty 30 minutes before Lunch?

[Horton's halftime iceberg]

Henry back on TMS sunny day, all is well with the world...

 

[Cantona's Flying Dropkick]

Sri Lanka 102/0 (29.1 ov)

 

[SirElliotBennett]

This is boring, already set up for a draw. However, i said the same in the 1st

 

[jakarta]

Finally a wicket - I think this may well be a draw?

SL 214-1

 

[Kazenga <3]

All out for 367

 

[BensGrandad]

Why are people suggesting a draw as they will be all out by tea tomorrow and we will have to bat at least a day to ensure a draw. Although the forecast for the country tomorrow is rain.

 

[Cantona's Flying Dropkick]

231/1 - stumps day 2

 

[vegster]

Sri Lanka 9-0.

Henry back on TMS sunny day, all is well with the world...

Indeed, I had TMS on in the car while out and about and it was lovely to hear Blowers going on about his recent double hip op etc etc..... national treasure ?

 

[brightonmark1234]

well done sri lanka made our bowling look poor 2day. and hopefully we'll get some early wickets 2mow . or otherwise it will be a long day in the field

 

[BensGrandad]

Can see SL getting to 500 and then us having to bat after tea on day 3 and not lose any wickets during that session.

 

[matthew]

Dilshan is incredible, simply stunning. If only he was English.

Btw where's Lasith Malinga and Angelo Matthews? Injured or?

 

[BensGrandad]

Malinga is getting his throwing arm back into operation. I thin he has chosen to stop playing Test cricket and in so doing stop throwing the ball at the batsmen and wicket.

 

[matthew]

Gutted. Amazing bowler, he would make such a big difference in this test. Loved watching him bowl

 

[BensGrandad]

substitute the word bowler for thrower and watch him throw and you could be right. Nobody will ever convince me that he didnt throw the bowl, with a bent arm.

 

[matthew]

Murali was the one most known for throwing the ball, but that's because his arm is naturally slightly bent. Never thought of Malinga as a thrower of the ball, just looks like it because of the way he slings it. Whatever they did though it f***ing worked and they will be sorely missed

Isnt that end of argument.
