What the fuck do they think they are doing?
England 56- 3 after 25 overs
What the fuck do they think they are doing?
Getting bogged down by decent bowling and then playing rash shots!
Lunch 57-3
Vince still on 0 after 15 balls
Don’t get me wrong it’s been turgid this morning, at best!!
I am lucky I cannot watch it then have only got the BBC reports to go on.
How fucking bad are we

83 for Bloody 5 Jesus bloody wept.
One of the commentators earlie was saying that we’ve only won 33% of test played at Headingly!! So why the fuck do we still play there??
Because Boycott is still involved in some degree
Hales 50 up.
Bairstow doing what Bairstow does best…
Just one of those starts I would say. Be interested to see if we can make 250 + then what we do with the ball.
120- 5
Hales and Bairstow still in
Bairstow survives an LBW call, reviewed and ball was missing the stumps.
150 up with a 6 from Bairstow
He’s now 47 from 51 balls
Hales 65 from 142
154-5, another LBW call, Sri Lanka reviewing the not out decision.
Stupid review by Sri Lanka it was so obviously missing the wickets.
Bairstow 50 up, 51 from 60 balls
167-5
Sri Lanka appealing for everything at the moment
171-5 tea
114 runs in the afternoon session for 2 wickets
88 partnership between Bairstow and Hales.
Raining!
So no more play after tea.
