Good day. Could've been much better for Aus had they not been so generous.
Highlights was seeing one of those white balloons to cross the ground and fly out of the stadium after about a dozen attempts. Crowd seemed to warm to Herath too.
Was hard not to laugh at Thirimanne getting smashed where the sun don't shine.

I'm sure this has been mentioned plenty of times in this thread already, but I think somebody really needs to explain to M Jayawardene how the DRS works.
Firstly he reviews a very dicey LBW shout that was turned down. The ball was only just clipping the edge of leg stump, and umpires call was upheld. Mahela threw his arms up in the air, complained to both umpires, walked away shaking his head and threw his arms around a bit more.
Later in the day, an LBW shout on Clarke was turned down. Despite having 1 review left, Sri Lanka decided not to use the technology and as it turned out, it would have been absolutely plub. Following the decision not to use the review, Mahela was seen once again complaining to the umpires and carrying on.
Son, what on earth are you doing?

To my understanding it was more >300cm from the stumps, so it was up to the third umpire whether to give it out or not. I can't imagine that it wouldn't have been overturned though, it looked very much out.

If Ponting did that there'd be a thread about what a disgrace he is from the usual suspects.

Whoever made this video and believes it is ******** and doesn't know the rules.
Hey I just thought it looked weird with the ball moving when it pitches

As I said yesterday, it was great to see Hughes get runs. However, I think he and commentators should save the "how I've turned things around and had a rebirth" comments, until after he scores some runs against international-class attacks. Even on the domestic front, with his county and his new Shield team (in the FC form), he only averaged mid 40s in 2012.
At 24, and already with a number of centuries under his belt, it's clear the boy can play, and is certainly worth persisting with. However, in my view, judgement should be reserved, in terms of whether he "is back".
