Monte doesen't seem to be a wild child to me. I know he pissed on some bouncers but we have all wanted to do that at some point.

Jayawardeene due a knock and so is Thirimanne
|

By:
Best tweaker in England by a distance and Eng have given up on him cos he likes a drink and hasn't got a great attitude....
It's as if all they want is robots who excel at the bleep test and look good in those silly whiter than white non-sweaters. |

Surprised Sky haven't spotted this but there is now the very real possibility of captain Cook being banned for the first India test match.
Already on a warning after the 1st test for slow over rates (he was fined 20%, the team 10%), this session will only have 26 overs. |
|
By:
Yeah that's why they keep Cook as capt - they know he's not the right man but he's a yes man and won't rock the boat. Bit like FIFA - Blatter is all over the place but gives his team a few million and they support him - who wouldn't.

99-2 pretty good effort so far

By:
These two could stay around for quite some time, England may need some luck on their side. I speak as a not very confident England backer.
|
|
By:
As i said......England will want to contain them to 350 and the draw was,is in play.
|
|
By:
No cloud cover this tea time, evening session.
|
|
By:
if we were going to play a spinning all rounder, i'd have gone with fat samit instead of ali.
it doesn't matter now i suppose. something in it for herath on day 5 and I suspect 250 and 80 overs is more than enough for the lankans, but that's still miles away. The gloom is already there for england, and a pressure situation and cook will inevitably fail and set up a capitulation. |
|
By:
So glad cashed out before play this morning. Had feeling SL would have big say today. Draw may come down if these pair hold last session risks of storm n rain tomorow afternoon

Getting Sangakkara is like scoring ith a beautiful woman. It might happen once or twice in your lifetime but the rest of the time you have to make do with bouncing around with the tail-enders !

thank you swiss tony

sanga is going to have to get 200+ himself here

![]() I don't even want to go back into the memory archive but I know I have clocked some mileage in the department. In my defence it wasn't my fault. I'd go to bed with Marylin Monroe and wake up with Miss Piggy! ![]() |

Guys,
Ladbrokes are offering up to £100 worth of free bet. If you bet £100 on any sports book bet they will credit you with a free bet of £100. If that wins you keep the win money but don't get the £100. Sounds like a good deal to me specially if your first bet wins ![]() The 'Death says Belgium to win tonight at better than evens and if they don't I will get a chance to win my £100 back with Ladbroke money. It's like a double chance. |
|
By:
Belgium graced with good players but seem quite poor as a team. Mind you Russia are no great shakes. superb manager though !
|
|
By:
Russia not playing well, Belgium were terrible but first nightt nerves over they may start to shine. I think 6-5 is a good price.
Hope it rains here as I want to have a drink and watch the Belgium game. I made my bets in advance. |
|
By:
What chance the draw shortening? Looks like a buy and lay back but surely this match must end in a result?
|
|
By:
|
|
By:
I'm going with both to score at a little better than even money.
|
|
By:
yes
|
|
By:
woah dude. You only get it on the first bet so make it at least a hundred!
|
|
By:
cant find the T&C for it, is there a min price for ur first bet?
|
|
By:
found it
|
|
By:
6. In order to qualify for each Free Bet the initiating bet must be placed on odds of 1/5 or over.
|
|
By:
not sure the min but the free bet will mirror your first bet so you need to make it £100 to get the best result
|
|
By:
It's close on 30 degrees I think being the early match - should be plenty of space about
|
|
By:
if your free bet wins you only get the winnings not the £100.
yes 1/5 or greater for minimum odds |
|
By:
well thaty works both ways Card. Teams may be hapy to sit back but Belgium have a great bench. Holding some funds back to bet after 60 mins if no goal by then. Like you say could be hot! Mistakes will happen when tired.

By:
Does anyone know if the pitch gets rolled tonight or tomorrow morning and does the batting skipper have choice of roller?
|
|
By:
weather cloudy
|
|
By:
The 2 SL greats playing well with their singles, leftie and rightie means the bowling can't settle.
|
|
By:
whispering do you know if that ladbrokes offer is for 2day only? doesnt say and expiry date, did you only see it 2day for the first time?
|
|
By:
Choice of roller from the side due to bat next.
Botham angry at tea because Martyn Moxon (one of the bosses at Yorkshire) told Cook that using a heavy roller was a very bad idea as it would make the pitch lifeless at the start. Cook ignored him and used the heavy roller anyway. |
|
By:
no I picked up a leaflet from a shop on Monday and registered today. I think it will probably available during the world cup.
As a matter of interest they have an Exchange now so betfair are going to get more competition on commission from the traditional dominant players one hopes! |
