35-2. Jimmy strikes again. Just good, consistent probing away on off stump and Bairstow bags the nick. What a match that pair are having!

Jimmy bowling like a dream, a real treat to watch him in his pomp.

Jimmy - still doing his thing! Monster wicket, that.

A big ton from Bairstow and now England's big two getting their teeth into the top order, what a day to be at Headingley!

Steve Finn now England's third highest scorer in this innings.

What a knock from The Ginger Keeper! Highest ever by an England No. 7 vs. Sri Lanka. EVER!

Finn getting ideas above his station - pinching a single off the penultimate ball?! Cricinfo in good form today: Which Father And Son Hold the Records for Most Test Runs ?" Well, that's easy. It's "Me-and-dad", innit!

From 83/5 to 283/8. "Two NIL, and you f*cked it up!"

Is that the best test over EVER of a batsman batting with the tail? 24422wide then 3 off the final ball to keep the strike. Awesome from Bairstow.

Three an over - pretty standard test scoring rate, happy with that.

Afternoon everyone. Great start for Sri Lanka here, I see the Headingley hoodoo has struck our top order once again. James Taylor already sorely missed.
