There we go

 

[PlayerComparisons]

471 is not good unless it’s overcast throughout Engs innings

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

England's innings definitely gonna be delayed.

 

[Thala_0710]

There's rain

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

471 with 3 centurions and 3 ducks.

 

[Johan]

There's rain

A couple of hours may be enough to do some irreparable damage.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

No, not dew...rain

471 in first innings is always a good score. Even on a road in Galle. It’s defendable.

Terribad cricket

From 430-3 to 471 all out is pretty poor

England have got this

 

[Johan]

England would be 20/3 before Root and Brook bat until day 4 or smth

 

[MW1304]

You lot have Bumrah ffs, stop moaning. Way too many runs.

 

[capt_Luffy]

I knew I can never count on this batting unit ffs

 

[honestbharani]

41/7 is some collapse even given the tail of this side. Hopefully we can bowl in 10 mins and get a lot of movement and wickets.

 

[SkyBlue]

Nitish Reddy played really well with the tail down under. He's a proper #6 bat. Poor decision not to select him.

A garbage shot from Gill cost us a total in excess of 550.

 

[Johan]

You lot have Bumrah ffs, stop moaning. Way too many runs.

They really thought this series would be anything other than Bumrah or Inshallah for them

 

[ImpatientLime]

pumped for all 7 balls of bumrah v nepo baby

 

[Chin Music]

And now it looks like the are ff for a bit.

 

[capt_Luffy]

Should have selected Jurel for either of Nair/Sai. Think is more dependable as a bat and a much better keep than Pant.

 

[Johan]

@Thala_0710 so what was the hype with the Karun guy?
