*Official* England in Sri Lanka 2021

[Pup Clarke]

I'm backing Sibley to go big here

Criminal that I gotta watch this on a dodgy stream. Get your **** together Rupert.

 

[Pup Clarke]

is vishwa fernando injured?

Don't think so. Seems to be surplus to requirements in these conditions - don't agree if that's the consensus

If he does, it will be one of the slower efforts; 200 ball 50, 7 hours to reach a 100, that sort of thing. But you're more confident than I am.

EDIT
And there he goes, wasting a review too.

Sibley gone

Embuldeniya has made him his bunny this series

 

[GIMH]

a 3fer with the new ball including the..wicket..of lahiru thirimanne? how will i ever recover

Morning mate

 

[91Jmay]

Sibley absolutely lost against spin. Jadeja will clean him up if he's fit

 

[Red_Ink_Squid]

Sibley doesn't seem to have his game sorted vs spin.

 

[Tom Flint]

Think we may need to add bairstow to the India sqaud
Unless he has asked to not be included which I doubt he would have

 

[trundler]

EMBUUUU

 

[MW1304]

Where's Jennings?

 

[StephenZA]

Yeah. 380 is a big total.

 

[wpdavid]

Oh dear. Follow on anyone? The pitch does appear to have livened up since some folks were using it as an excuse for Leach and Bess's impotence. But to be fair they weren't bowling at Sibley and Crawley.

 

[Senile Sentry]

Wow. Embu

 

[grecian]

Where's Jennings?

Indeed, eek.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Jeez. Why would you ever start with seam against England in Asia?

Crawley and Sibley both need to improve to be hopeless.

 

[vcs]

Embuldeniya with the new ball will be very challenging, England need to be careful here

 

[Pothas]

Burns having a great series.

 

[ImpatientLime]

sibley looks like hot trash right now. no way he should be playing in india.

 

[vcs]

Root. Different class.
