Weren't all 6 of Anderson's last over left alone? That's pretty poor tbh.

EDIT
Tremlett, otoh, looks unplayable at the moment.

You could tell that last ball from Jimmy was a inswinger, that didn't come in.
Both these bowlers seem to take a couple of overs to get into rhythm.
Tremlett seemed to be starting to get it right but Jimmy a little off what he wants. I think like in the 1st innings, it takes a few overs to take the lacquer off the ball because you could see, Jimmy was aiming the ball to come in and out but the ball wasn't going.

Kind of disappointing mini-session. Tremlett just looked to be finding his line in that last over though, and maybe we can get something tonight. Need four or five down by the close, mammoth session coming up.

Dread to think what the mood might be like in the Lankans' changing room. Can't imagine more situations more demoralising than batting to save a match you needed to win.

England 2.4 seems value. Can't see SL having too many wickets left after the remaining 45 overs today.

Thoughts?

If you've already betted on the draw, might as well hedge, but I wouldn't take that. Remember we might not get any play tomorrow.

Nah haven't made a bet on this match yet.

Draw is 1.72 now for the record, as opposed to 1.48 yesterday (when we felt it was good odds, yet we all expected today to have no rain).

You could bet on the win and when England inevitably takes wickets in the next session hedge with higher draw odds.

Well I was hoping on hedging end of play yep. I don't think the odds are taking into account tomorrow having no play. It is imagining it to be like yesterday. Otherwise draw would be shorter.

I might be just being pessimistic, but I'd definitely go for that.
