Agreed if you are allowing the ball to turn - get out to the pitch and go hard for me (for someone like Buttler).

I think if you stick around long enough you will get a delivery that you can't defend against and bring your innings to a close.........

True, which is probably why they are using their current approach of being positive, without using big shots. Nudging and nurdling singles every other ball accumulates runs without undue risk.

Sri Lanka are just giving away singles. If it continues like this it will be comfortable.

Sibley could been our 3 times umpire saved his arse.

You've got to feel that barring the most monumental cock-up it's swinging England's way. Actually, if Sri Lanka won it from here I'd take my hat off to them.

Good ball. Pushed it through a bit quicker and trapped him. Quality bowling.

thanks for letting me know

2 quick wicket with them being these 2 my money would be on Sri Lanka

Haha, someone on the BBC feed, following this, complaining about the Lampard sack alert almost giving them a heart attack! I know what they mean.

It is but, if I was the Umpire I'd be getting a bit sick of Sri Lanka appealing after every delivery....
