Can the draw come into play? the pitch is benign at the moment!
|
|
By:
Personally can't see how it's a draw.
|
|
By:
Same here - SL will be all out - 2 hours at most
|
|
By:
WD....still in play............not much to spare soon, time, overs, etc and the poss shower

Flip flop 235
I think Sl will need more than 250 now. Half tempted to throw some at the draw for a later kick back |
|
By:
Cook now only playing short instead of line and length. SL expecting it and cashing in !
|
|
By:
the draw is very unlikely if there is no rain with the amount of time left
either Eng will get the runs or SL will bowl them out if it stays dry - what's the weather forecast? |
|

too low,, |
|
By:
Judo, true, but factor weather and Sri getting to tea, then it is in play as England hang on...
|
|
By:
Cook frightened to play spin because if Ali get's turn then SL will use Herath earlier
|
|
By:
what is the weather forecast?
|
|
By:
Yes CD...........me thinks
|
|
By:
just a chance of rain showers tomo, i think
|
|
By:
2.88 SL will look big if Eng are 25-2 chasing 270 tomorrow morning
|
|
By:
Showers in the area this afternoon (might hit, might miss), tomorrow cloudy.
Maximum 149 overs left in the match (minus 2 for change of innings). |

Cook frightened to play spin because if Ali get's turn then SL will use Herath earlier Herath will be bowling before the 20th over unless the seamers take 4 wickets. Mathews is three times the captain **** is |

Herath taking 3's !! |

If England are to win they would need to record the third highest successful run chase in a test at Headingley. #EngvSL |
|
By:
Topped up on the draw@12 for a few shekels, no harm there. Will lay back SL at odds on later in any case.
I guess we all want to see if Ali can spin it again and cause any problems! C**k obviously scared to give away runs to him. The spinner situation is coming back to bite the selectors, manager and captain in the jacksy...good. Hope Monty is having a good laugh at this shower of sheite! |

Way back when, ex-Aussie captain Greg Chappell would have had none of this nonsense about "we can't get Mathews out so we'll give him runs, we want to have a go at the bowler". He would tell his team "you're a bowler, you bowl".
|
|
By:
Only a matter time before Herath is out
|
|
By:
Come on Herath old chap,no swathing strokes pls, a nice slow 50 will do nicely.
|
|
By:
Mathews need to be careful and remember about my green here
|

hahahaha yes mathews!!!

SL looks too big. Must have a look at the fixed odds prices for comparison. Just seems out of kilter to me. England look shot.
The England win here in 2001 was on a belter of a wicket I seem to remember. Butch had a blinder. The Aussies in 48 must have been a great batting surface too. 300 will be almost impossible to chase down but the pitch is not demonic as yet. England should be able to block but they cannot play well off the front foot so unless they get 3 quick wickets I cannot see why they are odds on! I have a £100 free bet from Ladbrokes courtesy of a late Belgian goal last night and a £115 win .Suggest you guys check out the Ladbrokes.com site. Place £100 on SL to win and if they don't you will get a free £100 bet to win it back! |

By:
70 more please somehow!!
|
|
By:
Herath now above his test average (15).
|
|
By:
Cook still not used spin - 77 minutes of Herath and huge partnership building - still not occurred to him
|
|
By:
that's an absolutely superb knock.
|
|
By:
Longer he leaves it the more pain it will be if they thump him for 3/4 overs, it will put England out of the game nearly, which Cook is doing anyway.....
