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

[Uppercut]

Are the crowd no-balling Malinga?

 

[Jacknife]

Cracking shot!

 

[Spark]

Cook does cut the ball seriously hard, tbh.

 

[Howe_zat]

Kulasekera's been good. Nothing in the pitch for him but solid line and length.

 

[Jacknife]

Are the crowd no-balling Malinga?

No, they've got a football chant thing going on, like when a keeper's going to kick the ball out.

 

[Himannv]

Strange decision by Dilshan to bring himself on early. This simply does not seem like the pitch for it.

 

[Himannv]

Good start by England. Need a wicket or two here.

 

[Uppercut]

No, they've got a football chant thing going on, like when a keeper's going to kick the ball out.

Sounds like they're shouting "no-ball" at the end of it though.

Gone quiet here.

 

[Jacknife]

I bet he can't believe he's just done that, brain fart.

 

[TopCat]

I bet he can't believe he's just done that, brain fart.

Didn't he know where the bloody fielder was? DOH!

 

[wpdavid]

Tame end to a tame innings, that one over from Dilshan excepted. He really had no idea how to up the RR against the other bowlers.

 

[TopCat]

After 27 games, no-one has ever scored as many ODI runs as Jonathan Trott!

Really?

Bloody amazing stat!

 

[MW1304]

Gone quiet here.

The commentators mentioned they were doing that in the T20. Hope they're wrong, cause its disgraceful if true.

 

[Jacknife]

really, they were going both going along all right, in the last Odi he started similar and gradually brought his strike rate up.

 

[Spark]

Gone a bit meandery here atm.

 

[Jacknife]

Gone a bit meandery here atm.

Down to losing a wicket but still Trott needs to get rotating the strike.

A Cookscoop, well I never.

 

[Spark]

Now I've seen it all.

 

[Jacknife]

Trott's going to end up putting pressure on Cook , if he doesn't get a move on 5 off 17, should be better on this pitch,

 

[TopCat]

Scoring at less than 5 an over - they will need more that 7 an over soon.

Time to press gently down on the accelerator pedal.

 

[Himannv]

Good time to tighten the screws and get the spinners to bowl a few quick tight overs.
