Great start for England.

From what I've heard Kandy is by far our best chance of winning a test (as the other pitches will sort Sri Lanka more), so if we're going to win the series it's huge that we try and hammer home our advantage here.

Will be getting up early tommorow to watch this, mon the Belly :**)

Hyderabad needed a 28 ball 42* from Inzi to get 121/6, probably 15/20 runs short of a par total from what the commentators are saying.

Lara gone for a golden duck, Azhar Mahmood on a hat-trick /o\ \o/

Razzaq accounted for Solanki in the previous over and Mumbai are 18/3

[Shermanez]

England ticking along nicely. :thup:

[Shermanez]

KP gone for 31, England 170/4. Another for Murali.

[Shermanez]

Bopari goes for 8, England 182/5. Murali needs one more for the record, and if the weather holds it won't be very far away. Aggers has Prior in the Murali record sweepstake

[Shermanez]

Prior's gone, though Fernando got it. England will struggle to post a comfortable lead here.

[retired_nini59]

oh well at least we're going to get a first innings lead, hopefully we'll get at least 50 runs ahead and bowl well again, as I'm sure Murali will be even more effective come the 2nd innings.

[Test 187]

Ravi Rampaul of all people just hit consecutive sixes \o/

Gayle has a hamstring injury though

Jesus Christ you're dim. Once again i find myself saying IT WAS HOW I SAW THINGS NOT NECESSARILY WHAT WOULD HAPPEN. And i stand by my opinion, would much much much rather Broad was playing (ahead of Jimmy in this case). Broad should be playing imo. Now just in case you missed it:
