Should Moeen have farmed the strike better?

Another change, Dhammika Prasad at the Kirkstall Lane End...

115.1
Prasad to Ali, no run, bumper outside off, easily ignored 

115.2
Prasad to Ali, 1 wide, better bumper, tighter line but too big! That's good for Sri Lanka actually

Prasad pulls out of his run up and now tries around the wicket..
.

115.2
Prasad to Ali, no run, short again, Moeen drops his hands outside off and allows it pass by 

115.3
Prasad to Ali, no run, full angled right in at the pads, Moeen pushes up the wicket

Single figure the number of balls left now... Two slips a gully, a leg slip, a short leg...

115.4
Prasad to Ali, no run, right up there around off stump, Moeen digs it out up the wicket

115.5
Prasad to Ali, no run, back of a length just outside off, Moeen nudges it,calmly, very calm is Moeen

115.6
Prasad to Ali, no run, full at the stumps, Moeen knocks it up the wicket 

Great effort from Prasad, will it be a match-winning performance ?

So it comes down to James Anderson with six to face from Shaminda Eranga.


A whole host of catchers around the bat...

James Anderson sinks to his knees after coming so close to pulling off a remarkable draw :'(
