Re: Sri Lanka V NZ - First test Match

Yeah this match looks like finishing in 2.5 days :) SriLankan batsmen have undone all the good work of their bowlers in restricting NZ's first innings lead to 52

Re: Sri Lanka V NZ - First test Match

what is this??? spoil-sports Kiwis:

53.1 Bond to Sangakkara, 1 run, OUT, what's going on here, Sangakkara whips that down to fine leg and the single brings up his century, but Murali touched down at the striker's end, turned around and left his crease to congratulate Sangakkara, the throw came in and McCullum whipped off the bails to run-out Murali, what a way for the innings to end

Re: Sri Lanka V NZ - First test Match

:hehe: at umpire.

Re: Sri Lanka V NZ - First test Match

Well Murali shoudl have been more careful.

Re: Sri Lanka V NZ - First test Match

New Zealand 206 & 119/5 (33.0 ov)

New Zealand won by 5 wickets

:k:

Re: Sri Lanka V NZ - First test Match

Yes the Kiwis won despite an unimpressive batting display in the second innings. Murali with figures of 7-99 in the match again showed what a world class bowler he is. Vaas also played his part. It's a pity the batsmen spoiled it for SLA. Sangakkara showed the way by stroking a calm 100*, He is perhaps the second-best wicket keeper batsman after Gilchrist today. A target of 200-250 instead of the eventual 118 would have really tested the Kiwis. Hopefully their batting will come good in the second test.

Re: Sri Lanka V NZ - First test Match

murali only managed 7 wickets in the match :( (53 in his last 5 matches)

he is still 29 behind Warne
