jmothecat Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Disappointed I can't go. I was supposed to be working at Headingley today and tomorrow but had to cancel as I'm needed elsewhere. Had been looking forward to get paid to watch cricket. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby Skidmarks Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Some start from Sri Lanka. Pish poor batting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuctifano Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Always enjoy in test cricket when folk make snap judgements, comments on the BBC site after an hour were "dead slow pitch, England will score loads". Oops. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Savage Henry Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Sometimes hawkeye talks absolute bollocks. That was never going down leg. Still, I'll take it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmothecat Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Absolutely pissing it down here. More rain expected, might not be getting much cricket this weekend. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearwithme Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 As far as I saw, there wasn't a huge amount of assistance for the bowlers. So it seemed to me that Sri Lanka bowled well overall and there was also some poor batting from England, with Bairstow and Hales the obvious exceptions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogmc Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Hope hales brings the ton.....think it would be excellent if he locked in opener slot with cook....feel like he is getting more authoritive now 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
die hard doonhamer Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Hales fell for 86, Bairstow currently moving through the 90s. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearwithme Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Well done to Bairstow on his ton. Meanwhile other England wickets were tumbling. Moeen out for nought. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Savage Henry Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Hard to know whether that's par or above par. Looks a wicket with a lot for both bowlers and batters. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Savage Henry Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Johnny Bairstow's having a bit of a blast. England 267/8. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
booitsme7 Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Sri Lanka have just started batting after England were bowled out for 298. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjw Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Utter collapse here from Sri Lanka. They are 90 -8 and need 9 to avoid being asked to bat again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
die hard doonhamer Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 91-9 now 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjw Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 All out for 91. Follow on enforced. Fivefor for Jimmy Anderson. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Savage Henry Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 (edited) Brilliant bowling by England. Enforcing the follow on after such a short inning is a no-brainer. ETA - Jayawardena is awful on comms. Edited May 20, 2016 by Savage Henry 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmothecat Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Glad to see them enforce the follow on. Great bowling. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
