And geez do they look like they need him.

 

[Burgey]

Good to see England reverting to type after their attack's fluking the Ashes last summer.

Dear Jimmy,

I miss you and love you.

Yours sincerely

Looks like Jimmy Anderson is comparable to Zaheer Khan in more ways than one

 

[GIMH]

Heh

Finally, after almost half a Test of watching balls go to 3rd man for four, a 3rd man comes in.

EDIT: Started better, at least.

EDIT2: But then true to form, eventually, many-wides down leg.

 

[TopCat]

A bit depressing, isn't it?

 

[PhoenixFire]

**** me that looks painful.

 

[hazsa19]

That looks so painful. Test cricketers are sometimes just as tough as any sportsmen.

 

[SirBloody Idiot]

Jesus that'd hurt.

 

[TopCat]

I'd be surprised if it isn't broken this time.

 

[Jono]

Til Dil you tough nut!

 

[hazsa19]

Don't show it again!

 

[hazsa19]

Memories of the Steve Harmison era are flooding back

 

[TopCat]

GONE!

Bowled by Finn, the Cap'n's gone.

 

[Spark]

Ah, end to a great innings. Finn's probably deserved that in this spell, bowled really well.

But again - top innings. Captain's knock in every sense of the book.

 

[Outswinger@Pace]

Goes through the gate. Good ball to end a dominating knock!

 

[TopCat]

Yes, an outstanding innings and a new record for Sri Lanka at Lord's. Scored quickly and endured some nasty blows too.

Well played.
