*Official* Sri Lanka Tri-Series

[Hurricane]

McCullum needs to adjust his pace and bowl some quicker darts. And then bowl some slower stuff.

 

[Hurricane]

McCullum doesn't really have the game to shoot off his mouth to Sanga.

 

[_Ed_]

Ooh some tension.

 

[Hurricane]

Don;t know why we took off Williamson.

 

[Athlai]

Haha loving this

 

[BeeGee]

Why did Taylor take Williamson off? He was bowling well.

 

[Hurricane]

Only a couple off that over - but thought it was wayward. McCullum needs to bowl better.

 

[_Ed_]

Amazing catch.

 

[Hurricane]

Sanga gone. Pleased that the Kiwis didn't try to give him a spray on his way off the field.

 

[Athlai]

lol at McCullum taking the catch.

 

[NZ Guy]

Haha McCullum had to be part of Sanga's dismissal it was always going to happen

 

[BeeGee]

LOL!! McCullum (and Styris) have the last laugh!

 

[Hurricane]

**** here we go with the commentators discussing when to take the batting powerplay. I wish they would take away the batting powerplay just so that I don't have to listen to commentators discussing it.

 

[Howsie]

Williamson's bowling impresses me. He looks more dangerous than McCullum (certainly getting more turn).

Indeed. The more I see of Nathan McCullum the less I rate him, strict 20/20 player IMO.

NL McCullum 7 0 23 1 3.28

Bowled well in the previous game. This has been a bad outing for him.
Reckon his batting is good enough that he is worth persevering with.

In his defence - Jayawadene didn't let him settle in his first over.

 

[BeeGee]

I'm really struggling to see why Williamson was taken off after only two overs, and Tuffy brought back. That seems to have played perfectly into Sri Lanka's hands.

The move to take off Williamson at lest resulted in a wicket with Styris. But the decision to bowl Tuffey was a mistake. He has gone for plenty.

 

[Howsie]

Yeah keep bowling Tuffey, they probably haven't scored enough runs yet.

 

[Hurricane]

Williamson looks better on a pitch that is helping him. Last time I saw him in a 20.20 in NZ he looked innocuous. If he has control to go with this spin then he looks really useful much better than a part timer.

 

[BeeGee]

Is Hopkins a waste of space, or what? Can't keep, can't bat.
