[Bazal]

Watson like Challenge.

Haha wow! How wrong were we!

I think ball tracking might have stitched SL up there tbh, surely that was taking some part of the pegs?

He looked salmon trout for mine, Ball tracker might have had a few early friday beers???

I guess being a Dragons fan instills one with nothing but abject pessimism....

Haha dont you support parra?

Can you see us chasing 268?

 

[Pete Cash]

Herath was bowling scarily well at the end.

 

[Bazal]

Absolutely, as long as we bat even just solidly there's no reason we can't chase it. 185 to go in a heap of overs. We just have to play smart cricket and rotate the strike really.

 

[Meth]

These two are the crease are key for you. If they can both post half centuries then I'd imaging you could do it comfortably from here.

Cant understand why Jon Holland has been given the nod over Zampa as replacement for SOK??

Oh well will SL win their 2nd ever test v Australia here? No chance, we will win this one later on today, by 4 or 5 wickets

 

[Twizzle]

very strange selection

Have you seen Zampa's 4 day record? That's probably why.

Was either Holland or Ahmed and I'm glad they didn't pick a useless 35+ year old!

I've only been following this game via glances at Cricinfo (apart from the start of our second innings last night) and this chase will be tricky, need to two at the crease to stay there for a while. Couple of early wickets today and were f**ked I reckon.

Ball tracking has a 'Don' adjustment built in

Great comeback from the Lankans, your boys are in an interesting spot

It all depends on Smith and how well the young left arm Leggie bowls. He's probably over bowled his wrongun but they are still having trouble picking him.

Our batsman have once again let the bowlers down and it's up to them to get us home.

 

[Pete Cash]

In fairness its the first time in ages one of the top 5 hasnt scored a 50. They have been batting well. They destroyed nz in nz.

 

[hineyrulz]

That's out, massive wicket.

 

[Hutty1986]

Haha i love the new and amazing ways our awful batsmen manage to throw their wickets away in the subcontinent. Too many to get now, unless Smithy performs a miracle and makes about 160 of them himself

 

[hineyrulz]

Darsh Jr plays that shot well.

 

[hineyrulz]

Good 50 by the skipper.

 

[hineyrulz]

This could be close.

 

[hineyrulz]

Plumb.

 

[hineyrulz]

He hasn't hit that.
