SL rolled for 154. Lost 6/90

SA well in control now, especially with Sri Lanka down to ten men

So they've dropped Amla, and now "first" slip is standing at third for some reason and Faf edges a sitter through the gap.

Poor Sri Lanka are bottling it.

Lol Amla falls (to the newly repositioned slipper) and then Quinton pokes one straight back to Lakmal and suddenly it's 5/91

lol Fap de Penis gets a life, stumped off a massive no ball.


Honestly it's Yakaty Sax out there ATM. Test cricket and the players are so professional these days and so much better than the players of the past.........

How come other countries have interesting tests while we get snorefests like Sydney and Melbourne?

They obviously aren't bothered by games finishing in 3 days.

There is nothing wrong with this deck at all, some good bowling and some disgraceful batting.

ICC will probably label this a poor pitch as well.
Batting around the world is poor. Better not say why (20-20).

Of course it would be a lot easier if they were facing Lillee and Thommo.

Another 136 to win a historic test series, who saw that coming? First things first , negotiate the 1st session today without too many wickets down and they should get there

Any we think we are bad. lol at SA

20/20 certainly has stuffed things a bit, can’t blame professionism, unless it’s only the bowlers who are professional?

Lillee would have these batting muppets on his own string today

SA are in big trouble, a fair few ageing players on the slide and nothing really coming through in the batting ranks. Bowling stocks look fine even though Steyn and Pielander aren't getting any younger either.

136 is still a LOT in a test like this. Get Mendis early and all of a sudden SA are favourites. There isn’t much after Mendis really.
