Nice Swanny.

**** Swanny. A sodding full toss.

I'd have gone for that review, looked close, looked like Patel told him to walk. Not sure it's Jimmy's job to be sweeping though ****ing stupid.

Yes missed by a mile that, stupid to not use the review there.

**** sake, the first shot in anger and he picks the only fielder in that area. Really disappointed with how the last 3 wickets fell then, not very bright stuff.

As soon as I got up and saw the score KP got out and the usual ****about followed. May as well of declared if Patel was going to show no urgency whatsoever.

Not really they've added 50 since KP got out and it seemed to be very tricky to go after the bowler (except KP). Disappointed Swann and Patel couldn't see the day out mind.

49-4 off about 18 overs is a waste. I'd rather they scored 30-4 off 6/7 and had a proper bowl tonight.

The series situation forces you to be more aggressive. Sri Lanka could decide just to block their way to a draw. Then those overs are crucial.

Personally think those 50 runs are critical and there's still 2 full days to go.

Dilshan doesn't fancy it.

Anyway what a great days entertainment with KP playing one of his best innings ever, total box office and brilliant to watch. Hopefully England will get more out of this pitch tomorrow and maybe wrap it up.
