Bryan Morton from UK: "Loaded up the commentary expecting - nay, hoping - to see England receiving their usual drubbing, and find the world has turned on its head. This is thoroughly ruining my Friday afternoon...!"

Heh. I failed the Cricket Test years ago. Besides, with my Irish hat on - they can't expect me to support England when they keep stealing all our best players..! :D

I was halfway through posting that Samaraweera and Kandamby were steadying the ship nicely, and then...
19.5 Broad to Samaraweera, OUT, a wicket just when it seemed England were losing the plot!
TT Samaraweera c Collingwood b Broad 30 (48b 4x4 0x6) SR: 62.50
Still hope that I could have a smile on my face at the end of the match, thought...

no one knows whats a good score on this pitch is 200 may be a very good score Sri Lanka just need to fight it out.

We all know that if England win this match then its media will be claiming there going to win the trophy.

Think im going to commit suicide this summer if i have to listen to eight more months of everyone saying that England will win the football world cup.

At least i can smile when they fail :D
