Sri Lanka endured a morning of frustration at Headingley as determined resistance
by England's sixth-wicket pair, Joe Root and Moeen Ali :
was followed by drizzle and an early lunch ::LOL::
on the final day of the second Investec Test at Headingley.
England made only 26 in nearly 18 overs in front of a smattering of spectators as
Root contentedly committed himself to a morning's deadbatting
and Moeen sought to steel himself to a defensive game that is more alien to him.
looks like england will save..
the Lankans have gorne off the deep end
::LOL:: ::LOL::
"I think the Lankans are sledging themselves off focus.
It's not coincidence that the line and length errors
went up with the volume of their voices.." ::LOL::
What was that about with Nasser and Mikey ? :-\
Mathews dries the ball with a towel...he has a pretty defensive field at the moment
which is a little odd.
Neither of these captains likes to over-attack, but surely now is time to go for broke ?
I have my sal' an' pepper handy for my Mathews crow
::LOL:: ::LOL::

Pradeep to Root, OUT, breakthrough ! That's the one they desperately wanted.
Good contest :
Pradeep fantastic hair bowling to Moeen fantastic beard ::LOL::
