***Official** Sri Lanka in New Zealand

[_Ed_]

Another good catch...this could be over tonight!

 

[Nate]

Unlucky Jayasuriais run out. That was really unlucky.

I`ve seen five of them in Australian Domestic Cricket already this season.

 

[NZTailender]

Bond. Shane Bond. They're dropping like fly's now

 

[chaminda_00]

Show some backbone you retards!!!!

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Haha, NZ running riot.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Pair on debut, solid.

 

[Dravid]

Haha there goes another one

 

[_Ed_]

And another.

 

[NZTailender]

Another one! Bond is running rampant!

 

[chaminda_00]

OMG what a joke, do they know what side of the bat to use. Now we got the biggest mug of them all out there Prassana "i can't bat" Jayawardene.

 

[NZTailender]

NZ pretty good in the field today.

 

[chaminda_00]

If your NZ fan or Lankan fan you have to admitt that this is piss poor pitch, way too much movement. Im al for pitches that support bowlers, but this has been a joke. No doubt there been some poor batting, but really, its a joke of pitch.

EDIT: Crap Jayawardene goone.

I disagree. Great for bowling. Both sides bowled well, and a couple of players have stood up with the bat. Lessons will be learned for the next match.

Sri Lanka capitulating here. Nice work by Oram.

 

[vic_orthdox]

Haha, what's the chance NZ cricket board asked for a green top, because with these crowds, the longer the Test went, the more cash they'd lose?

No way. It's just been poor batting, and dodgy technique. The pitch is decent.

 

[_Ed_]

The pitch looks fine to me. The bowling has been exceptional, and the batting has been less than inspiring.

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

I've not watched much of the game live, just been recording it and flicking through the highlights at the end of the day, but the pitch seems fine to me.

 

[NZTailender]

Bond again The mans a champion.

 

[Nate]

LOL @ Chaminda. The pitch is fine, no real demons at all. Not to mention small boundaries. Sri Lanka`s first-innings batting was horrible.
