It was a fine performance from England the other day and I was glad to witness a far more aggressive approach to their batting than what we've seen in recent times. There was real purpose and intent to the way they went about things and it was nice to see the returning[b] Tim Bresnan[/b] smashing a few boundaries towards the end of the innings. Of course Sri Lanka didn't do themselves any favours by bowling some horrible deliveries at the death which the likes of the aforementioned Bresnan and[b] Eoin Morgan[/b] duly punished. They also suffered an awful batting collapse which meant they were never really in the game from an early stage of the second innings. That said, the rain helped England a lot more than it did Sri Lanka, and there was a lot more in the pitch for the home side's...
