SL 263

ENG 325 & 71/6 (19)

Day 3: 2nd Session - England lead by 133 runs

Good competitive match so far, I hope SL wins and spoils England's hope of winning all six Tests for this summer.

A cutarse applied in "Text book style",mek dem swallow a bitter taste of defeat in dem backyard by the 6th placed test team.I couldn't help but notice their giant size 4 prong pacers strut about with their inflated machismo,giving the Lankan batsmen a fair share of intimidation with short pitchers,the Lankans fought it and punctured their inflated egos with a brilliant victory.They lost the series but I'll bet the happier team is Sri Lanka

Well done Lankans. Congratulations.

no clean sweep

a lot of arrogance

Wi would have loss that chase they would have wanted to turn that small chase into a t20 match

Yes sir,you couldn't help but see the arrogance of this English team,they were given a good lesson in this test,that lix must have soured the series win,"good fuh dem",as we say.

Congrats to Lankans. Wish we could show that determination when we have a sniff at victory. We had it against England and Oz and both times the batting just came crashing down.

we had enough moments in that test series to win at least 1 match

In reply to PalsofMine

I think we must always have at least one solid batsman in the middle,we have De Silva who could occupy a higher position,maybe 2 such type of batsmen would help.Our cricket culture must chsnge and we'll get there.

A more interesting series

WI leveled a total of 416 & couldn't win a Test.
