Keepers playing with a broken finger apparently, nice to see the dedication.

Despite the flat pitch i've enjoyed this test match - some awesome performances.

Goodness me if it wasn't for Sangakkara would have won by an innings!

Cook too defencive yet again

 

[HAILSHAM SEAGULL]

If Cook had some balls he would have declared last night with 8 overs to bowl at them.
Sorry Garry Ballance, well batted, but we want to win the game.
Eight overs last night, would of meant we would have had the 2nd new ball 8 overs earlier this evening.
