22nd Match - England v Sri Lanka

[Adders]

nice to see some decent looking ladies in our shirts for a change,knew we had some somewhere..

I have also picked up on this.........very good turn out by the SL girls.

It is always a sure sign that the cricket is boring me when I start scanning the crowd for hot tottie.

you part of the Opta family or something ****?

 

[Pratters]

Root has been rough to look at. Doesn't seem to fit into the skin of odis like say a Morgan some how..

I wish. But lol, I literally just tweeted them asking what our dot ball percentage in the middle overs since the Champions Trophy.

Yeah Morgan is really looking dominant this WC.

Oh that ruined my point, carry on....

 

[Stace]

Warne is enough to make a grown man cry.

Yet he's scoring quicker.

Cabinet likes stats, he makes PEWS seem almost rational and not a crazed arithmatical math-bot with no human emotions.

 

[Pratters]

260 would be a good score for England and they might defend that as they do have some good bowlers. 240 and Sri Lanka would be favourites. If England manages 280, would back them to win.

 

[Cabinet96]

Herath still has 9 overs to bowl of the last 21. Let's just go home.

there are a few mooses that managed to get over the electrified fence tho too..

 

[Spikey]

uh oh someone suggested taking the power play now because both batsman are in

 

[Pratters]

Yet he's scoring quicker.

Strike Rate below 80 in his career. A tad too slow.

 

[Cabinet96]

When commentators still try to pretend the batting power play isn't just a way for sides like England to lose a bunch of wickets <<<<<

 

[Cabinet96]

Strike Rate below 80 in his career. A tad too slow.

Most of the time in his career people have been losing wickets in clusters around him so it's not that bad. When England were successful he scored quicker so he can do a quickening scoring job if the situation allows it.

 

[YorksLanka]

good 50 run partnership for England..need a wicket soon..

 

[Spikey]

Sri Lanka due for another 200 run opening stand against england tbh

 

[flibbertyjibber]

All set for a 30-3 powerplay here.
