*Official* Ireland in Sri Lanka 2022/23

[HeathDavisSpeed]

When was the last time first 4 batsman hits Hundred in test ?

I was at this Test. Mark Waugh missed out by 1 run otherwise this would have hit the target: https://www.espncricinfo.com/series...nd-vs-australia-2nd-test-63610/full-scorecard

Twas the Test where Mike Atherton slipped on 99 and was run out too. Classic England.

Run out on 99 or dismissed in the 90's worst wasy dismissal
for anyone

{test + ODI}

Strange tactic by SL bowler so far as they targetting players H-E-A-D

Asith is a beast. Killer bouncer, nails the Yorker pretty much all the time, has the fitness to bang it in short in galle heat all day and reverses it.

 

[G. S. Kohli]

Congratulation Sri lankan supporters of cricket web with 2/0 series win

SL won by an innings & 10 runs

Ireland 202 all out (Balbirnie 46, Tector 85)

Ramesh M 5 for 64,p. Jayasurya 2 for 88, Asith Fernando 3 for 30)

Still no sign of rain

 

[Molehill]

oh how the turntables

Well I got The Office (US) reference.

Anyway, unsurprisingly, SL found a way to win despite the first couple of days.
