I can't believe it... I went to bed expecting a draw and get greeted with this news.

How disappointing.

The great thing in hitting is, not to be half-hearted about it; but when you make up your mind to hit, to do it as if the whole match depended upon that particular stroke.

100 not out

So -  Sri Lanka have chosen to bowl first... is this the classic village tactick when you have no bowling? They obviosuly think their best bet is a 4th innings run chase as their bowling is terrible.

Seriously it is going to be hot and sunny a lords for the next 2 days. Eng "should" make more than 600...

Strauss goes. 5-1 Although we have the ever reliable Trott in next, Pieterson might aswell take his pads off, I doubt he is going out to bat today.
