England V Sri Lanka

We have some fight. If we get 300 + now, that will be a good score. Couple of early wickets before the end of the day and we will be on top.

OK 297 + and a couple of early wickets… I forgot that test cricket is played at 100 miles an hour these days!

So Bairstow pretty much go half our score, if you take out the 15 extras! It was pretty much a 2 man show!

10-1 BROADYYYYYYYY

Hmm will those 10 runs off Vince prove crucial to enforcing the follow on?

Great spell by Anderson though

Excellent stuff…

What a great day, Mrs D_P away for work all day & I’m home alone with a proper brunch & plenty of 1/2 price ESB.

Bit of golf & hours of cricket.

(Another way of saying it’s 40C outside & we’re saving for our hols next month!)

That was good, really good. Fuck yeah!

Just when I was thinking that I find it difficult to be too motivated for a Test against this opposition so early in the summer, the Sri Lankans demonstrate that they feel much the same.
