Sri Lanka tour of NZ

[KeepingTheFaith]

Elliott is a solid player, the problem is that his innings are 'forgettable' when he performs and when he fails it looks dreadful.

Pretty much this.

Ronchi hits a 74 ball hundred = nobody remember Elliott making a well compiled innings.

 

[Red Bear]

Taylor really is in a poor run of form at present.

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

Hope Elliott can get to a hundred here. Really deserves it.

 

[Meth]

Special innings from Ronchi and Elliott- as much as I was critical of Elliott's selection

 

[shiznit]

I think SL will be much better when Malinga comes back...

They are missing that spearhead... That go to bowler.

Not only does he offer improvement with his bowling... He adds better balance to them...

 

[Meth]

Ronchi wow. 22 runs off that over. 161.

Massive total, solely down to these 2

 

[shiznit]

This is insane...

We were 5/90 odd and now we're pushing 350...

 

[Twizzle]

Amazing recovery considering you guys were up to your elbows in it

 

[Meth]

Sri Lanka just look completely hapless

 

[Meth]

Top innings Elliott

 

[shiznit]

Wow... Well done Elliot... Cements his spot IMO...

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

The amazing thing is that the run rate immediately picked up when they came together. You'd think at 90 odd for 5 you'd consolidate a bit.

100 for Elliott.

Outstanding.

 

[shiznit]

Lakmal is bowling the last over... He's close to a century himself... 0-82 going in to the final over...

 

[lockyno1]

Is this the highest partnership, lets just say ever?

 

[Meth]

Is this the highest partnership, lets just say ever?

For the sixth wicket, at least

 

[vvvrulz]

What the hell happened here !!??

Stepped into a few meetings and came back expecting to see us somewhere around 280 with 7/8 down.
This is crazy! 350+ partnership 265 both still unbeaten.

They might have broken the partnership record, I'm pretty sure Jayasuriya and Tharanga have it when they flogged England in 2006

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

Last 7 overs each went for a minimum of 11 runs, 5 of them 13+. Murder.

 

[lockyno1]

For the sixth wicket, at least

Well thats the obvious one, wonder if it was an overall one.

 

[JoeD]
