Yeah if Galle last year (which gave us a really exciting Test) got reported, then this one should get a lot more than a report.
Absolutely, there was nothing wrong with that Galle pitch. This is the worst pitch I can ever remember seeing.

how do you get out on this pitch?

you just don't if you bat sensibly.


43 overs and just 1 wicket today and that too of a useless ojha

200 runs in the series now for Compton. Averaging 39 yes, but seems to find it all such a struggle, you wouldn't say he's been a find. Root breathing down his neck I would say.

There is absolutely no reason both shouldn't be in the team at the moment. There are no batsmen injured currently - there is a full strength top seven, and if you wanted to get Bairstow in then it'd make far more sense to drop Bell than either of them at the moment.

At the moment fine, but I can't see Root as a long-term option at 6.

I reckon the Gods of cricket rang up and said "nah not having this, see off Cook whether he's out or not"
