Despite the loss of the openers, we're in a healthish position now.

Although theres still the little matter of Murali to deal with!

 

[Hazzman]

Building a very good platform despite the openers dismissed.

81-2 19 Ovrs

 

[Jeff]

Bell out for 47

101-3, 25.2 overs

 

[Hazzman]

Very silly mistake from Bell.

Well at least here's our most consistent batsman, Colly.

 

[Jeff]

Pietersen's out.

 

[Jeff]

Flintoff's out now. 133-5 from 33.1 overs.

 

[Jeff]

Collingwood's out now.

Need something special from Nixon and Bopara now to win this.

 

[Brauny Blue]

6 down its all over. Just look most England sides, they bottled it.

Freddies become a liabilty and should be dropped after this game imo.

 

[Jeff]

Freddies become a liabilty and should be dropped after this game imo.

He's England's best bowler though, I'd keep him in the team just for that.

 

[Brauny Blue]

He's England's best bowler though, I'd keep him in the team just for that.

He is,but his batting as been mainly poor up since the the 2005 ashes series. He dosen't seem to have that lethal streak in him that he had a couple of years ago.

 

[fosseboy83]

bollocks

 

[Jeff]

Need something special from Nixon and Bopara now to win this.

We got something special from Nixon and Bopara - but it wasn't enough.

Bopara needed three from the last ball to win, but he was bowled.

Sri Lanka won by two runs.

 

[MHS]

Exciting match for the neutral IMO.

Flintoff again has let us down.
