***Official*** England in Sri Lanka 2014

[Maximas]

A gem of an innings there from Prasad, brilliant cameo

Just need Thirimanne to hit a couple of boundaries in the last over and we'll have put a very competitive total up

 

[Maximas]

Alright, happy with that, off to bed

Cook and Ali started well.

No.

Woaah! England off to a great start. Ali smashing the Lankans everywhere.

Cook does not do me any favours for my first ball watching

 

[Howe_zat]

Seems like there's been some magnificent bearding on display today.

 

[Howe_zat]

Spectacularly inept bit of boundary fielding there. Encouraging for England given that fielding was the different in the first ODI.

 

[Antihippy]

I'm guessing right now is the preferred English odi opening pair?

I do enjoy seeing moeen biff it around though.

 

[Howe_zat]

Why are we seeing this over and over again? Edge, pitched outside leg, bouncing over, what more do you need

 

[Howe_zat]

Tangential question - since the umpire signalled leg byes but the review found Moeen to have hit it, can the review overturn the umpire's decision to award leg byes and change it to runs?

ATTN: Sri Lanka

He's a left hander. It can't pitch outside leg.

More importantly, SL shouldn't have lost their review in this case.

 

[anil1405]

Crazy run out, something that Eng didn't need.

 

[Howe_zat]

Oh dear. Things were almost going well for a moment there.

Criminal from Hales. Moeen ran 5/6 of the pitch in both directions for what should have been a straightforward single.

 

[Howe_zat]

Sri Lanka attempting tourism adverts. They are completely undermined by my never wanting to visit a country with so many goddam horns

 

[anil1405]

Hales should have been watching his partner instead of watching the ball.

Yup. You would call it village green stuff, but that's probably unfair to the amateurs.

This balance. What is i?
