***Official** Sri Lanka in New Zealand

[_Ed_]

Bit high IMO, especially considering how far out of his crease he was standing.

 

[dinu23]

a poor descision there.

 

[Prince EWS]

a poor descision there.

It was a shocker really. It was too high and hit him outside the line.

 

[Matt52]

McCullum out. Fair jinx there Matt52 lol.

Thanks mate. Sri Lanka will win comfortably.

 

[_Ed_]

James Marshall's playing better than I've ever seen him play. Still don't think he should be in a first-choice XI, but he's doing really well today.

Agree with commentarors, Murali being used to early. NZ just have to get through this and things will be smooth sailing imo.

And on cue Murali takes a wicket. Good stuff.

 

[pasag]

Arrgh stupid stuff from Marshall there just after he gets a well earned 50.

 

[JBH001]

Unless Macca has had a personality change in the course of his exile from international cricket, he is going to try and take Murali on.

McMillan now, this will be interesting.

Well that didn't last long.

Haha spoke too soon. Murali gets McMillan out for 2 with a cracker.

You guys watching this live on TV?

Cricinfo is slow(er) with the updates.

You guys told me first lol!

 

[meatspx]

James Marshall is a shocking judge of a run.

Did his best to run out Taylor, now himself. Not to mention the 2 run-out opportunities he gave to the Sri Lankans when opening with McCullum.

Worse than Parorae!

Yeah, on cable here.

Brilliant 6 there from Marshall

 

[JBH001]

Ah.

About time too, I think NZ is making hard work of a relatively easy chase by going about it too defensively.
Maybe this is what they need.

 

[JBH001]

Hmmm, Mahela should have kept Murali on.

I think he just relieved the pressure there a bit by bringing Vaas back on.

 

[pasag]

Brilliant yorker by Malinga to get Vettori. This is getting exciting.

 

[Jono]

Man that was so awesome!

He's done Vettori twice with yorkers hitting the base of the stumps this tour.

LOL!

And now Cricinfo asks that very question!
