Well played Sanga.

Poor from England today though - showing no intensity at all. Hopefully they'll bowl like this against India :)
 
If the lankans would have played the last session of the first test better, the score line would have read 0-0. But no justification, if ifs and buts were pots and pans..

Seems like the series will finish at 1-0. Broad's test match skill duly exposed. And so were the lankan bowling.

However credit to England for good show, thoroughly dominatiing throughtout the series and had full five days been played i'm sure they would have emerged victorious.
 
Also if england manage to draw this match, and even if they manage to ascend to the top, they might still struggle to be there for a long time.They just look like india ,not seizing the oppurtunity by the collar and forcing the desired result. India let Boucher get away in the final test this year similarly. The dominance of Aus is certainly begging to be found again.
 
SL 334/5.

Match drawn. Kumar with a splendid knock that saved the game for SL. England take the series 1-0.
