World T20 England v Sri Lanka

[jakarta]

Against a Sri Lanka with Sangakkara & Jayawardene that total would be around 25 runs too few, but they are not quite the side they were.

Mind you if we bowl the sort of garbage we did against the West Indies they could get there in 15 overs...

EDIT not bowling garbage so far 9-2!

[Prince Monolulu]

I fancy our chances here.

 

[Hampster Gull]

Lookng like a NZ Enlgand semi final. Happy days

 

[Triggaaar]

Completely disagree with the commentators, who think it's ok for Rashid to temp the batsman into taking him on. Bollocks, we don't need to tempt them into a mistake, just play sensibly and watch the run rate climb. Instead he's hit for 20 odd.

 

[GT49er]

Sri Lanka getting cracking now - sixes left, right and centre.

 

[Beach Hut]

Sri Lanka giving our spinners the treatment

Agreed........no need to buy a wicket FFS. Game back on now.

Looking good but I'll still find something to moan about. What is the point of Stokes coming in after Morgan?

 

[Triggaaar]

Awful from Morgan, why the hell is Ali bowling at a set Mathews? Wait until a new batsman comes in FFS

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Slow clap for Ali and Morgan

 

[Arkwright]

Problem is we don't have a quality slow bowler.

We haven't had a game where we have batted and bowled well, it's only one or the other.

 

[Triggaaar]

Send them home, it's embarrassing.

 

[GT49er]

Perera out! Six down..............

Couldn't agree more. Especially when I've got a bet on Sri Lanka not to hit sixes!

 

[Sompting_Seagull]

Come on England!

 

[The Wookiee]

22 of last two overs ! Going to be a crucial over !

 

[The Wookiee]

What a catch !
