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

[Uppercut]

Well it ain't low and slow, but it's not the OT pitch I remember

Mmm. Typical fourth-day OT pitch, maybe.

Prasad has a bit of pace about him. Shade unlucky with the LBW shout.

First time I've seen his bowling. Not much in the way of movement, but his action looks as if he'll naturally bring the ball back into the right-hander.

Looks to have more about him than the usual suspects SL have used thus far on tour.

Batting PP. Clever. Been somewhat impressed with Cook's captaincy this series, more than I'd thought I'd be.

 

[Jacknife]

They've taken the batting power play and why not.

 

[Uppercut]

Batting powerplay taken.

Not liking this tactic.

 

[Spark]

Haha that doesn't mean bat like an idiot. Not sure why he needed to do that.

 

[Jacknife]

Didn't need to do that at all, in fact really stupid.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Skipper done like kipper.

Well bowled.

 

[superkingdave]

Lol, whenever we take the Batting powerplay, it always results in wickets.

Anyway, now lets see what we get from Trott

 

[Uppercut]

Lol, now they have the batting powerplay on the go with Trott on strike in the 13th over. Such dire tactics.

 

[GIMH]

Bloody hell Cook

Yup.

Well bowled, fella.

 

[Jacknife]

Uh, kept low that, good knock anyway.

 

[GIMH]

Funny old game innit?

 

[Jacknife]

Bit OTT the celebration.

 

[Athlai]

Glad to see Prasad back in the reckoning.

 

[Spark]

KP

 

[grecian]

Oh dear.

This batting powerplay has taught us a valuable lesson about taking tactical advice from Botham.
