Trem and Finn both in! Let the bombardment commence!

ENG getting first use of the deck on a bright sunny day.
 
Bowl first on a batting day, and then leave your quickest bowler Fernando languishing on the boundary rope.

I think Dilshan is on an acid trip.
 
No tv channels show it here so it's legitimate :ibutt

Just making the point that one deserves high definition, best quality picture and sound and minimal ad breaks if they pay, and one does not if they do not.
 
Dilshan wow I still can't believe it. England to pile up 500+.

Tremlett,Finn and Broad...perhaps a bit too similar. Maybe Shazad in the place of Finn would have been better.

England fans...where is Bresnan? He was excellent in his last test.
 
Bresnan is injured, only been said on the internet and the telly a zillion times :nasser
 
Oops! Strausser's run of low scores continues.

Here comes the run-machine....
 
Strauss Gone :facepalm: Was hoping to see him bat for a while and now here comes the Run machine
 
Sri lanka 5 bowlers which is postive but wether they are capable of taking 20 wickets is different matter. Their seamers need to create pressure by taking wickets and not just try and contain england!
 
Like I said earlier wouldn't mind being 3 or 4 down early so we can see the much more exciting middle/lower order batting.
 
Cook and Trott together again! These are the two sri lanka need early!
 
Cook and Trott.

Might as well go for your daily dump now because nothing will happen for the next ten minutes.
 
Trott and Cook at the crease. I'm off back to bed. Record partnership on the way but will be dulllll
 
Why do Knight and Beefy keep saying the word height? That was dead.
 
Trott only averages 223 at Lord's anyway.
 
I was looking forward to Strauss and Cook or Strauss and Trott partnership but as usual we got Cook and trott and you might as well come back at the end of the day to check the score cause these two will probably get another 200 run partnership
 
Boredddddddd. Hopefully we are 20-3 soon and can watch KP, Bell, Morgs and Prior all day.
 
Might change the avatar back to the KP head in his hands one if he gets out to a left arm spinner again.
 
I know this is a bit off topic, but can somebody tell me on how many runs will I get my next statement? Its Local Club Star right now,Thanks.
 
Aren't BD full of left armers? I thought KP did really well against them

It was only Bangladesh.

He has got out 19 out of the last 61 innings against left arm spinners (30%). I still can't see a technical problem but that is absolutely atrocious.
 
Good thing I never actually went to sleep :))

Maybe Dilshan was right?
 
The combined bowling average off the sri lankan bowling attack is shockingly bad!
 
Awful review, medium pace so never going to be flying past the stumps. Use your common sense Jonathan.
 
Good thing I never actually went to sleep :))

Nah. If this wicket has anything in it then Sri Lanka are going to get killed giving they are batting 2nd and 4th.
 
Pretty much if you win toss and bowl 1st its only really justified if you have oppostion 8/9 down by close off play or you have bowled them all out.

This is a decent start by S.L
 
Would be hilarious if they brought on Herath, it failed and it wasted the new ball.
 
Need to get herath on so they can get KP out quickly ;)
 
Want KP to get a ton as usual but if he flops it would be brilliant.
