***Official*** England vs Sri Lanka 21st August-10th September 2024

Something doesn't have to have the correct number of base 10 digits to be a good innings for ****s sake

England lost the toss, put in to bat in what everyone acknowledges are bowling conditions that the oppo selected for, lost an early wicket, and it's immediately put us in charge of the test match.
This exactly, the difference between 86 and 100 is not that much in the grand scheme of things, and I feel with openers especially it’s about giving the team a platform, either by sticking around and getting the ball soft or in Duckett’s case, getting the bowling team on the back foot by scoring quickly

Why are they going off for bad light? Pope seemed to be seeing them pretty well.

It's not like this Sri Lankan pace bowling attack are the 80s Windies bowling attack.
