Sri Lanka favourites again.

SL 1.80
NZ 2.00

 

[Prince EWS]

Strange, strange decision to take Franklin off after he had bowled 3-13-1... especially given how Bond had bowled at the other end and how Franklin can be very hot and cold from spell to spell.

Can't see why, they've consolidated a little bit but having really done anything to take back the favourites tag.

Certainly none legal to watch in Australia - Foxtel have sole rights to this game AFAIK.

Bond's poor bowling may have something to do with it. I'd have a bet on NZ now though if I hadn't already bet on them before the match at better odds.

He generally comes back well later in the innings, unless of course he is bowling at the deah. He was bowling well though, so I'm not sure why Fleming took him off.

Sangakarra=classy.

Right. I am now watching!

Got an internet stream working because I am back to uni now and don't have Sky in my room.

Good start by SRL but losing Jayasuriya is a massive loss.

Predictions for scores anyone?

Probably with Bond looking shaky and these two looking ok.

Turns out it WAS a change of ends, just not an immediate one. Still odd though.

 

[pup11]

Bond still feeling after the after effects of his gastric problems? But on a serious note can he reverse swing the older ball or for that matter can anybody reverse it in the NZ side??

 

[GGG]

No balls and wides may cost us.

No worries we have a long way to go, sanga and tharanga are living dangerously, just sit back, relax, have a magarita and watch the game

Watching the cricket for me is ruined by having to listen go Ranjith Fernando.

Usually somewhere around 15 overs, isn't it? Bah, who cares, would rather carry on watching cricket as long as possible without those interruptions.

I just bought a load of penny sweets, so I am watching getting high on sugar!

Living dangerously? Sangakarra has been very tight in defence and Tharanga has benefited from some loose bowling, nothing dangerous about it.

 

[Loony BoB]

What's the state of play with how well the bowlers are bowling given the conditions, how dangerous they look, how well the batsmen are hitting etc? Any idea of a decent total yet?

Speaking of which, you might want to do something about this thread.
