For some reason I thought it was spinning the other way.

I wasn't exactly paying attention though.

 

[superkingdave]

We going to get a full game in here? Haven't seen the pitch but fair to say England look set for a decent score?

 

[Cabinet96]

Should do. Should do.

 

[King Pietersen]

50 for Trott. Been an excellent knock thus far. Not a huge fan of watching him bat, but he's so damn effective.

 

[Howe_zat]

Not surprised but a little disappointed by SL keeping the field deep and just accepting England playing the plan.

Go on, try something

 

[Howe_zat]

England must be doing well, everyone's stopped paying attention

 

[Cabinet96]

Trott's still in though. Isn't that bad?

More importantly Trott is going up the ODI rankings.

 

[grecian]

"Support your team by using their hashtag", na I'm okay thanks

 

[MW1304]

Dilshan's dropped another.

Edit: I missed the one earlier too, so that's three in a day from him. We've been very lucky there.

 

[Howe_zat]

Root got lucky there, had NFI.

 

[Prince EWS]

Reckon I'll struggle to lose my bet from here. Trott will no doubt get out very soon just to keep it interesting though, like Amla did.

Dilshan dropping everyone who isn't Trott is slightly annoying too.

 

[Cabinet96]

That may be the first time I've seen Dilshan drop one. Fully expected him to catch that regardless of how tough it was.

Now dropped three today

 

[Howe_zat]

Malinga 0-31 is great

If he ends up 0-45 we've got it made.

Root is really the only one who could surpass him, so you'll probably be fine.

Yeah Root is obviously the challenger. Trott just needs to stay in for another 10 runs or so for insurance against the "Root batting through" possibility, which means he'll get out and make me sweat it.

I've been really lucky with my betting in this tournament but I've not had a comfortable win yet; everything's gone down to the wire.

 

[Furball]

Why does Bumble keep going on about 280? 300 should be the aim from here. 320-330 might even be on with some good batting/terrible bowling.

You're screwed now Cribb

Haha yep.

 

[Days of Grace]

Running the aging Sri Lankan fielders ragged.

LOL, that bet's no longer safe.
