Lankans are getting just enough movement with the new ball. Not a huge amount of swing - less than at Galle. Imagine the seam movement will disappear after 20-25 overs but then there's spin.

Nice ball from Eranga. Again Taylor needs to leave those early. Don't think they read Martin Crowe's article

Don't you remember what McCullum said? They stopped listening to Crowe (or anyone else) ages ago.

Judging from that first Herath over we are in for some difficulties.

Astle will turn it 10km if he lands one on the pitch.

Definitely a bit in it here for Jeets to get another 3/50 if he bowls well.

Out comes the slog sweep!

Tbf it's probably better than extreme tentativeness. As long as Taylor chooses the ball carefully.
