England v Sri Lanka ODI/T20i Series

[ianp1970]

...and we had the luxury of having 2 keepers in the side!

[Arthur Crabtree]

Looks lke one of those Eng v SL games from the mid noughties, but the other way around.

[ianp1970]

It was over so quickly we only had time for a brace of Delilahs and Hey Judes, with only a solitary Sweet Caroline...

I remember it well.

So do I.

Nice of us to do something like this for a change.

I remember being at a game where we won by 10 wickets - against WIs in 2000 - but I think WIs only got about 170-odd.

[KipperJohn]

Shame that such a good win and record breaking opening partnership should be 'lost' amongst 'other news'.

[Aidan11]

Indeed.

There appears to have been little enthusiasm for this away from the ground.

[Arthur Crabtree]

Another game tomorrow. England have no injury concerns.

One day cricket is not supposed to be like this though, a little carnage between partnerships is what's promised to the spectators. If this becomes commonplace it will make test cricket look exciting.

[hopeforthebest]

Will the side remain unchanged or will Finn replace Moeen as suggested yesterday.

England win the toss and Chris Jordan replaces Moeen.

[hopeforthebest]

Good to hear a South African accent from an England player. Keep them coming.

[Arthur Crabtree]

Surprising that CJ has come in ahead of Finn. Particularly as CJ's 50 record is appalling.

[Arthur Crabtree]

Since the last WC, Jordan's econ has been 8.6, his SR, 66. It's not even good enough to be Dernbachian.

[Aidan11]

Good early wicket.
