****ing pathetic this. Who the **** is the fielding coach? These players need to be fined per drop from now on.

****'s sake. Don't deserve this

I think 255-260 is a par score, not a great pitch/ground for hitting boundaries.

Pitch is playing normal - SL just did a bad job at rotating the strike and playing the short ball.. I don't see Eng having the same problem.

 

[91Jmay]

Think Jordan is just better bowling back of a length here.

Who is doing the dropping? Am watching Monaco.

Gurney a fairly straightforward chance at 3rd man then Ravi an absolute dolly (although that won't surprise anyone, he has one of them in him).

 

[Adders]

****ing hell we held one.

 

[91Jmay]

15 ****ing wides.

 

[viriya]

Have to say I'm surprised at how Priyanjan has responded to the responsibility. Looks to have a good temperament..

 

[91Jmay]

250 ODI wickets for Jimmy.

Highest for an English bowler.. I guess that's not saying as lot though..

 

[91Jmay]

How was that not a wide? A foot over his head at least.

 

[viriya]

Eng has got away with a bunch of short ball wides.

 

[91Jmay]

He hasn't been great today but I like the look of Gurney as a death bowler. Seems a hard bloke to slog.

 

[Howe_zat]

Couple of really jammy wickets there.

 

[Howe_zat]

Decent score. Maybe just a smidge under par.

 

[91Jmay]

Decent score, should be a good chase. I'd probably just favour Sri Lanka slightly, the wides from England shocking.

 

[viriya]

65% win odds for Eng - sounds about right.

Better than Dernbach but that not saying much.

 

[grecian]

I think we should piss this.
