peasy23 Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 Sri Lanka need 397 to make England bat again, I wouldn't even back them to get 97, never mind the rest. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmothecat Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Cook might just get the chance to pick up those last five runs If England are chasing down a target of two or three then we could see some very peculiar management of the strike That would be pretty enjoyable seeing Cook attempting a six when one run behind Sri Lanka's total. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 A certain amount of lethargy fron ENG avoids a second 3 day blitz glad I didnt spend any money on this series Didn't see any of Sri Lanka's second innings but very surprised they have gone over 300. Saw a stat that they were the first test team since 1958 to score less than 120 in 3 consecutive innings. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmothecat Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Nah, they're already following on. Yep, wrote the wrong thing. They reach the target to make England need to bat again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 (edited) I knew what you meant, was just being annoying! Seven down now. Should kill off any tiny chance of Sri Lanka getting enough runs to pull off an unlikely victory.

jmothecat Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Sri Lanka set England a target of 79 to win the test. Good effort from their part to make England bat again. Odds on Cook to be out for four? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bully Wee Villa Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Well done Cook. Also glad that Sri Lanka at least offered some resistance. Scotland or Afghanistan would've offered more than their batsmen did in their first three innings of this series. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmothecat Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 Yorkshire win the roses match by 175 in the county championship. Good performances from Rashid and Bresnan. Only Yorkshire's second win against Lancashire for 25 years apparently. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
