**Official** Sri Lanka in England / Scotland - 2011

[Furball]

Nah, it's another pointless Lord's track. Apart from the last session and a bit at Cardiff, this series has been completely neutered by the dead wickets that they've had to play on.

Isn't the track at Southampton generally a slow, low piece of crap as well?

Would say weather has also played a significant role.

Edgbaston, Trent Bridge, Old Trafford and Headingley provide the best test cricket more often than not.

The only hope for the Rose Bowl is that it might deteriorate. ****ing brilliant, and we have the audacity to have a go at Indian and Sri Lankan pitches.

This, and half of those grounds aren't hosting a test match this summer.

Trott on already? I know our quicks have generally been crap, but wtf???

Bowling for run-outs maybe?

I would have gone for Pietersen. The irritant factor could unsettle the batsmen.

 

[hazsa19]

I reckon that's out!

 

[Spark]

If this is out...

 

[Spark]

Oh my god. It's out.

 

[Prince EWS]

He's gun obvs.

 

[Jacknife]

Inspired Captaincy.

 

[Howe_zat]

Trott to take five here.

Hmm, 25 overs remaining... Still very much a long shot, but at the very least we've got them rattled.

 

[Jacknife]

Trott on already? I know our quicks have generally been crap, but wtf???

Great bit of anti-jinxing there.

 

[Furball]

Trott on already? I know our quicks have generally been crap, but wtf???

That's why

 

[wpdavid]

Trott on already? I wouldn't have thought of that but it just might do the trick.

Corrected.

 

[Spark]

speechless aws

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Get another quickly and the dressing room will be ****ting themselves.

 

[hazsa19]

Well that's their best 3 batsmen (imo) out.

 

[Jacknife]

I said yesterday, Jimmy would have loved bowling here.
