Booooooo

 

[Uncle Buck]

Probably find that under the Fuckworth Lewis we will now need 20 more runs than Sri Lanka in less overs to win the game.

England 101/2 (24.3 ov)

England require another 111 runs with 8 wickets and 25.3 overs remaining

Deceptive isn't it? You'd almost think that was quite gettable, if you didn't know better.

 

[Simster]

Sri Lanka 211-9 v England 164-2 (38 overs)

It's all going wrong as predicted.

183-2 from 40

KP 55* [should have dropped him]
Cook 77*

Going to be interesting to see how we manage to lose it from here.

 

[Cantona's Flying Dropkick]

England 194/4 (42.5 ov)

 

[Everest]

16 needed from 42 balls. Not even England can f*** that up, can they?

 

[Cantona's Flying Dropkick]

England 202/4 (44.0 ov)

England require another 10 runs with 6 wickets and 36 balls remaining

 

[MORTY]

Hopefully they will have the guts to drop KP. He serves absolutely no purpose at the moment and it sends out the wrong message to the fringe players if they are consistently ignored in favour of a batsman living off reputation instead of current form.

Good call.....

 

[Cantona's Flying Dropkick]

England 208/5 (45.4 ov)

 

[Cantona's Flying Dropkick]

England 212/5 (46.5 ov)

England win by 5 wickets.

 

[Scoffers]

Marvellous effort by a Flintoff less England to win back to back one-day series against India and Sri Lanka, make the World Cup effort all the more annoying

 

[Barrel of Fun]

It was a very good call by me. That would explain why Peter Moores has the job and I work in the housing industry.

Hopefully he has now turned a corner and will stop giving his wicket away so early on. It is clear that we need to sort out the opening pair, once and for all, so that the middle order are not needed to push the run rate up straight away!

Fantastic effort by England. I am struggling to work out whether Sri Lanka were under par or we manage to suffocate them. Totally agree, Mr Wanderer Sir, although I struggled to get interested in the World Cup. A one day series is far more exciting.
