You would imagine poms wrap up the series here?

Warri would be proud if that review from Rashid.

Stone cold plumb, the umpire had his finger up before they’d finished appealing.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Surely Curran is the best number 8 in the world?

poms on top after day 1

Leach could cause some havoc day, 2 was ripping it a mile

Just a seat warmer until the great Chris Woakes returns

 

[Timbo]

Bloody hell, that Pushpakumara, who is in his third test, has 668 FC wickets @ 19.

I know decks in SL are raging bunsens, but that is an insane pedigree for someone so new to tests.

 

[Twizzle]

that names ring a bell, wonder if he is related

I recall Richie commentating on games that Pushpakamara played in about 20 years ago

 

[Das Gupta]

Good ton to Root under pressure. Foakes continues to impress with the willow.

 

[Das Gupta]

Possible tight finish coming up.

 

[Timbo]

Possible tight finish coming up.

Alas, a pretty rapid captitulation by Sri Lanka.
