[Cricket] England v Sri Lanka - Second Test - Headingley

[Titanic]

This won't help!

86.2
Pradeep to Jordan, 4 byes, jeepers! That. Is. Unplayable. This has leapt from a very full length, a ball you may have driven on another day, it bursts through the surface, jags past the outside edge then flies over the keeper and slips

 

[Bold Seagull]

Well, I certainly wasn't expecting this to clash with the Lampard testimonial.

That is very good!

 

[Titanic]

Herath traps Jordan in front... reviewed but plumb.

212-8

 

[The Wizard]

Game, set & match.

 

[Titanic]

One to go...

Broad absolutely plumb to Herath... pitched midlle, hitting leg.

228-9

 

[The Wizard]

A quick fire half century from Anderson & we can have this done and dusted

Seriously after the first innings how the F have we got into this situation?

 

[banjo]

Done better than I thought we would.

 

[The Wizard]

Worst review ever, what the hell?

 

[banjo]

Worst review ever, what the hell?

Botham " it would even hit another set of stumps"

 

[Titanic]

England 234-9 at drinks.... with 15 overs to go.

Moeen Ali 94* (234 balls, 15 fours)

 

[Bold Seagull]

Is there the very real prospect of the England cricket team timing a defeat with the England football team?

 

[Titanic]

Anderson plays out a maiden from Prasad... 14 to go.

 

[The Wizard]

Superb from Moeen, very unselfish and he's stuck about whilst everyone else has fallen around him. Whatever happens here he gets kudos from me for the way he's played this innings.

 

[Titanic]

13 to go...

 

[vegster]

Moeen has played his heart out.

 

[Titanic]

12 to go... Ali 96*

 

[Titanic]

Moeen plays out a maiden... 11 overs to go...

 

[Titanic]

Jimmy survives another over from Herath... all edges avoiding the 6 close catchers!

10 overs remaining...

 

[Titanic]

Moeen Ali plays out another maiden on 96*... 9 overs left.

 

[Mackenzie]

This is great cricket.
