The Sri Lankan look like their bowling really tight but need a wicket to go with their good line and length. Come on Hearth knock over some Kiwis.

They didnt open the innings. Cumming and J.Marshall did...chipmonk said:Thank you sir ......Sorry about that..... Are they the only twins in cricket history to open an innings? I cant think of any other instances other than maybe the Waugh's
But as far as being an "only", they are the only identical twins to ever play test cricket together.

Thank god James is out i was getting a headache watching them, it like seeing double. I guess that shows the merits of having five bowlers, Chandana the 5th bowler gets a wicket.chipmonk said:Wow thats quite an added attraction !They are now trying tp up the run rate .....

They should of brought him on for Jayasuriya, but they brought Kulasekara. Atleast that shows he has faith in the youngster, hopefully his faith plays offchipmonk said:
I Think they should bring back Vass for chandana now

Hamish Marshall is fantastic. I thought as soon as I saw him in the series against Australia that he would be a star for New Zealand, and he's certainly backed me up today. He had a fair time of it against the best bowling attack in the world recently, and I think he's going to be destructive against everyone else.
On another note, chaminda_00: it was you who said Malinga was faster than Tait and could bowl in the 150s, right? Is there something wrong with him today? Because the fastest I've seen him bowl is low 140s, he seems at the most to be in Gillespie's pace rang. I've not seen Tait clocked, but he's around Steve Harmison pace at the least, with his average in the 140s and his quickest up in the 146-148 range. There's no way Malinga on the evidence I've seen of him (which is only the top end series in Australia and today, mind you) is anywhere near as quick.
