*Official* Australia tour of Sri Lanka 2022

[Starfighter]

That's a quarter of the lead gone already...

 

[Burgey]

Ummm, how doesn't the number one test bowler in the world bring himself on with a four-over old ball in this situation?

 

[ashley bach]

LOL how can the normally circumspect Karunaratne already be on 23.

 

[Burgey]

Needed that

 

[ashley bach]

What an ugly hoik for an opening bat.

 

[morgieb]

Starc bowling filth emboldening the openers?

 

[ashley bach]

Thats another ugly hoik across the line, SL going nuts here early.

 

[Burgey]

FMD this is a frantic test match.

 

[ashley bach]

Starc bowling filth emboldening the openers?

Suckered them in nicely.

 

[ashley bach]

Couple more quickies here and doubt we'll see the end of the day.

 

[Spark]

He's not great in that position is Davey. Never quite seems set.

 

[Spark]

Yeah SL have no idea how to play Lyon hey

 

[ashley bach]

Yeah he certainly had a good chance to snaffle that, he's kicking himself now.

 

[GoodAreasShane]

I remember the days where I actually thought KMendis would be something special

Long time ago now

 

[ashley bach]

Not trying to take anything away from the bowlers, but this is horrible from SL. 3 shots all aimed to the leg side and all undone.

 

[Burgey]

That's a deadset Hall of Famer review

Edit: just saw the replay and realized it was an umpire's review not the batsman's

 

[Spark]

That's a deadset Hall of Famer review

Ump review right? Mind you, not sure why the batsman was so convinced it was a bump ball

 

[Burgey]

Yeah once it went upstairs you'd think he might have toddled off but you may as well wait I suppose.

 

[Burgey]

Look this is very bold batting, it must be said.

 

[morgieb]

This is just crap batting from Sri Lanka. No idea/fight at all.
