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

[GIMH]

It's like our ODI lower-order is the exact opposite of our tail in Tests. ****ing hell.

 

[Spark]

Wow this is a rubbish effort here.

 

[grecian]

May not get 250 now.

 

[Burgey]

Got a feeling England may struggle to get to 275 here. Certainly the case if Trott goes soonish.

Nice to get one right for once

 

[Jacknife]

Horrible swipe, rubbish, rubbish, rubbish, giving it away could have put SL out of the game.

Just really poor decision making and panic batting.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Lol.

A good old fashioned English collapse, just like mother used to make.

Would take 260 from here.

 

[Spark]

That was a truly woeful innings by Bresnan though. Missed out on some nice full tosses and then that.

 

[Jacknife]

Need a little Swanny cameo here.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Still think it will be a tough chase, pitch not easy if you bowl well.

Bit crappy though by England, probably 40-50 short of what they could/should have got.

What did Bumble have to say about Randiv today?

 

[Burgey]

Horrible swipe, rubbish, rubbish, rubbish, giving it away could have put SL out of the game.

Just really poor decision making and panic batting.

What's cricket coming to when a number 10 reverse sweeps on nought in am international match?

There's your indication there is too much LO cricket right there.

 

[Athlai]

England proving themselves to still be woeful at ODIs. How they didn't score 300 there baffles me.

 

[Jacknife]

I know they should have scored more, didn't they say the average score here is 210 earlier.

 

[grecian]

I know they should have scored more, didn't they say the average score here is 210 earlier.

Yeah, and the pitch has spun, it's still competitive, IMHO, but we should of killed the series.

 

[GIMH]

What did Bumble have to say about Randiv today?

There's not accepting you got it wrong, there's being pigheaded, then there's you. Move on.

 

[vcs]

Yeah, 260 could yet prove to be a winning score like it did in the WC semifinal, though it may be a bit underwhelming after the start they got off to. Think it will be a close game either way, SL have given themselves a real chance here.

 

[vcs]

There's not accepting you got it wrong, there's being pigheaded, then there's you. Move on.

What exactly was I wrong about? God forbid I criticize a commentator for making a crap comment.

 

[Spark]

Does Dilshan not like Prasad or something? Bizarre that he's not had another spell.

 

[BoyBrumby]

England proving themselves to still be woeful at ODIs. How they didn't score 300 there baffles me.

It's the ****eness that holds us back.

Nah, seriously, we do seem to have a problem losing wickets in clusters. If one goes, more seem to inevitably follow.

 

[Spark]

This is amazing.
