Got to listen to TMS
Aggers got 70% of his test runs off Michael Holding! 100% strike rate, reckons he took him apart! 7 runs off 7 balls! |
|
By:
SL want to be tying shoelaces here, make it the last over before lunch.
|
|
By:
surely this is close to a 50/50 game here
|
|
By:
That's one heck of a stat. Only 3 successful run chases above 200 to win a test match at Headingley.
|
|
By:
great performance from SL - could have bottled it after the two wickets but held firm
|
|
By:
that's not an even session nass. sri lanka won that.
|
|
By:
you have to remember those averages include all the tests before the pitch was relaid, it's a much better batting wicket since then
what year was that? |
|
By:
all years
|
|
By:
If it wasn't for the wickets with the news ball and england had taken 4/5 rather than 7 wickets i would be fancying the draw
|
|
By:
Had a dabble on SL, hopefully then can get another 30/40 more runs. Cook under immense pressure, add into that the inexperience of chasing for Robson and Ballance and think Herath could be a big threat.

anyone else lost TMS online streaming?
|
|
By:
bugger me if I am green again!
thing is now every England wicket ticks in my favour! 250 is real important. Pitch is not really looking like a mine field as yet. Must be important for SL to bat for as long as possible timewise. As close to tea as possible just to maintain wear and tear on the pitch. Surprised again Ali was not tried. Broad Anderson bowling was not great. |
|
By:
huh?
that's not the answer to the question: when was the Headingly pitch re-laid? only scores since then are relevant to 4th innings totals |
|
By:
At Lords even in the last innings the footholes didn't seem very big - here they look pretty deep and there's a bit more bounce. Moeen Ali got two wickets but Cook has barely used him since - go figure ?
|
|
By:
yes TMS streaming down
|
|
By:
thanks judorick thought it might be me
|
|
By:
whatever happens this has been an outstanding knock for SL to start off over 100 runs behind and get themselves into a poition like this.
|

By:
decent stream here....

All depends on if cloud cover this evening or not.
|
|
By:
yes only 2 teams have come from behind to win here I have heard!
With regards to the pitch. the weight of history is starting to go against England but you can only play what is in front of you. the pitch seems ok for now at least. The good things for SL backers is the heavy roller has been used regularly and the effect of that has not been felt....yet ![]() |

stupid feature about girls cricket - build them up about why girls cricket is so strong and making massive progress then show a match where they are all out for 14 v a target of 116 ? What's the point...
|
|
By:
good point |
|
By:
This is reminding me of this

By:
it's about encouraging girls to play the game which is a good thing, but my god, they were awful with the bat for that sort of age.
there are plenty of good girl hockey players that sort of age, so it does surprise me a bit. |
|
By:
Small adjustment to position during this morning's play...now England -199,draw +551, SL+266
Am hoping SL get a lead of 270 and then it starts to rain |
|
By:
TMS stream back
|
|
By:
looked out to me
|
|
By:
recommend trots doctor to cook
|
|
By:
umps should be giving wides in that situation when they are just bowling down leg on purpose.
|
|
By:
they can if they keep on doing it. don't think you can do it for a first offence.
|
|
By:
I think it's time to let Herath play his innings and take the runs
|
|
By:
not yet, take some time out, not too much tho or the draw will be back, which i have still covered
