lovely day, England not looking so perky, 165-5 at tea. As predicted once he got the 10,000 off his back Cook got some runs, but not pretty. Compton surely has had his chance now, out for 1 again.

Compton's seriously not up to this level,and I'm far from convinced about Vince.Apart from Root,numbers 3,4 and 5 need to be sorted out sharpish before the next Ashes series comes around !
416 all out. 167 for Bairstow and a half-century for Woakes.
In the interval, I'm thinking that the TMS crew are a little unwise to focus on the work being done by the Lords head groundsman, as it does mean mentioning his name quite a bit. By the way, his name is Mike Hunt....
There will be an hour before tea, if England can get a couple of wickets, it'll be a challenging weekend for the Sri Lankans.

Sri Lankan's gone off at a gallop in reply 27 from 5 overs, do they think it's a 50 over game.......
400 plus should be enough to ensure a draw at worse.....

Good reply from top order, close 162-1.....
Could put England under pressure if they bat all day tomorrow.

And you appear to be living in a different century. Ceylon? Looking forward to Zaire v Yugoslavia later?
Maybe a 50 would give him another chance,especially if Cook's injury is long term !
He's gone for 19. I think that's him finished as a test batsman. Shame really.
