Got im!

One man went to Mo...

[BensGrandad]

Why did Moeen open the bowling with Broad why not Stokes for a few overs?

ps Perhaps that answers my question

Because he's just got a wicket?

I realise that but it is usual to open with 2 fast (ish) bowlers.

LBW review... Leach on Dhananjaya... looked good to me.

24-2

 

[BensGrandad]

valuable wicket as he did well 1st innings.

Australia didn't in their last tour of Sri Lanka... but then they lost.

Here comes a short sharp burst from Stokes...

 

[BensGrandad]

2 or 3 wickets today in the 20 overs will set us up for victory tomorrow.

we have achieved that bit.

Shocker from Mathews...

obvious trap set for the short ball from Stokes

great low diving catch from Broad

52-4

 

[BensGrandad]

Wouldn’t be surprised if it’s over by lunchtime.

Can’t ever recall this happening with an international team in my years watching cricket.
