:D
20.2 = Mahmood to Jayawardene, FOUR, errs in line and length this time. Short and outside off, cut to the point fence.
Nervous start. He runs in and as he is about to get into his delivery stride, the ball slips off his hands. He gets ready to bowl again (CricInfo).
I......I......I forgot they were at Lords. :p

22.6
Mahmood to Sangakkara, OUT, got him! first Test wicket off his 12th ball. Pushed across the body and Sangakkara was caught at the crease and just pushed at it and Trescothick swallows the chance in the slips
Re: England v Sri Lanka - 1st Test Lord's May 11-15
24.4 = Mahmood to Samaraweera, OUT, Gone! full, fast and pitches on the off and middle line, nips back in off the seam and the batsman just falls over on the forward prod and is caught plumb in front!
26.1 = Mahmood to Dilshan, OUT, suicidal! hits to left of mid-off and runs but Mahela is not interested and Hoggard throws it to the right of Jones, who keeps his cool, lunges to his right, gathers the ball and removes the bails.
26.2 = Mahmood to Kapugedera, OUT, Got him! another one bites the dust. This is amazing stuff here. Full, swinging in and the young Chamara Kapugedara has no answer to that. He gets his left foot across and is beaten by the pace and the late swing as it crashes onto his pads. full swinging yorker length and Kapugedara is gone off his first ball in Test cricket.
Mahmood = 3.2 - 1 - 6 - 3 - 1.80
MAHMOOD PAGAL HOGAYA HAI.

Sri lanka is realy a pappu team these days. Slightly better than Bangladesh. A chucker can take the team only so far.

The umpires get together for a discussion on the light. It's increasingly getting darker.

The umpires get together for a discussion on the light. It's increasingly getting darker and the light offered to the batsman who take it. Off they go. A great day so far for England.

Re: England v Sri Lanka - 1st Test Lord's May 11-15
Wow ... SL are on a high here :P
Re: England v Sri Lanka - 1st Test Lord's May 11-15
Yahoo! Go England! Go Barmy Army!
Re: England v Sri Lanka - 1st Test Lord's May 11-15
^^ wth go england dude we r going to be facing this team in less than a months time
Re: England v Sri Lanka - 1st Test Lord's May 11-15
S/L 327/5
Re: England v Sri Lanka - 1st Test Lord’s May 11-15
Sri Lanka 192 & 381/6 (130.0 ov)
I doubt SL can manage to draw, still one full day to go. But good fight back from them :k:
Re: England v Sri Lanka - 1st Test Lord's May 11-15
well they need something like Mohali early 2005 to escape defeat
Re: England v Sri Lanka - 1st Test Lord's May 11-15
^ The weather tomorrow is overcast with lots of rain so if nothing else the weather might come to the rescue of the Sri Lankans.
Re: England v Sri Lanka - 1st Test Lord's May 11-15
If SL can take a lead of 100+ they may be able to salvage this match.....
Re: England v Sri Lanka - 1st Test Lord's May 11-15
Considering the fact that England can choke easily in the final innings, if Srilanka can somehow give them a target around 150-175, the match could become interesting.
Re: England v Sri Lanka - 1st Test Lord's May 11-15
Sri Lanka (461/8 (166.0 ov)/RR 2.76) lead by 102 runs with 2 wickets remaining
Minimum overs remaining today = 56.1
Current partnership = 40 runs, 19.0 overs
Forget Hoggard and Flintoff, even that no-good Rana Naveed couldn't have put a dent on this batting line-up. :p
Re: England v Sri Lanka - 1st Test Lord's May 11-15
:-)... this is funny... we have a thread going which bowling lineup is better England or Pakistan....... :-)
