**Official** Sri Lanka in England / Scotland - 2011

[Woodster]

Hoping for a real improvement from the bowlers on the first innings showing, especially the quicker men. Although personally think Swanny's got to be our man to win it here.

 

[Burgey]

did Prior just break a window?

Looks like Prior's put the window through, in the Lords dressing room.

absolute legend.

Strauss doesn't look happy

Think Bell will want Strauss to wait a while just so he gets to stay away from Prior

Lead of 331 leaving SL 60 overs to bat. Declare Straussy!!

Invoice on its way to Matthew Prior's house requesting a fee for a smashed window.

Matt Prior banned from the pavillion!

Keep going boys, get 350

Personally have no issue with a player venting their spleen, but compare this reaction to the self-righteous indignation over a 99 dollar **** box tv at the WC, and smashing a window and having shards of glass fall on the crowd.

I wouldn't even bother bowling Broad. Open with Swanneh and rotate Tremmers n Finn at the other end

 

[Himannv]

Should send Maharoof up the order to chase the win. Have a feeling we might just settle for the draw though.

Don't think anyone hear has a problem, Strauss' reaction was priceless

Yeah, but that was Ponting.

Piranha gets such a strange rap by the English commentators. Just because the innings you've seen him bat in this English tour have been slow doesn't make him a slow batsman. Piranha loves his boundaries.

 

[Spark]

What a daft shot. What a daft, daft shot. Pissy little tap. Either leave it or smash it.

Well a s/r of 46 he is.
Sanga goes,Tremlett does the business.

 

[Uppercut]

Sanga. WHY.

 

[Athlai]

Sanga wtf? Literally hit it out of the middle of the bat, angling it perfectly into his hands.

 

[hazsa19]

I saw Sanga bat in the nets at Cardiff and he did that sort of thing numerous times.

S/R wasn't 46 before this tour.
