Yeah fair enough..back to the cricket...yes he could have appealed (probably successfully) on the second but sporting of him not to...

He had warned him a couple times last over.. it's not the prettiest but if it's within the rules it's fair game. Why wouldn't you? They're trying to win the game mind you.

He clearly wasn't out of his ground when he got into his delivery stride. Just cheating, plain and simple.

That makes the next 3 weeks cricket tasty. If it was a bit of a non event series for many before it just became a bigger one.

Certainly adds a bit to this game, still think England have a good chance here.

Wish the Umpires were allowed to just call him for chucking, that would really make things fun.

:laugh: Great sportsmanship from Sri Lankan.

Cheating if you stop after your delivery stride.
Just to clarify, I was watching on playback and made my comment about being sporting BEFORE satchi ran out butler . Personally, despite it being within the rules, I DONT agree with him doing it. IMO, he should have given him one more warning ( I.e three warnings) after that fair game, its the batsmans responsibility then.

Love the crowd giving it to the cheat. Hope he doesn't get banned for the tests, he looks like he is going to cry at a sparse crowd giving it to him. Can't wait for a evening session when he is on the boundary.

Again, that was not in the rules. He entered his delivery stride, after that you are not allowed to stop. It should have been a no ball/
