Bloody brilliant from plunkett, woakes and butler, top order - a lot to work on.

So England's tactic of playing countless average bits and pieces players finally bears fruit...same bits and pieces players don't get the job done against the elite sides...

[GoodLeave]

Can you Adam and Eve it.

The most village piece of fielding I've ever seen in International Cricket, No, all cricket, has cost Sri Lanka the game.

Hales and Roy batting 10 and 11 next game.

Reason being because they all can bat a bit lower down which paid of today and shows what can be done with having players coming in 8,9,10 and even 11 who can bat.

Mitchell Starc Who?

[Lumsden]

Oxenford might have actually done England a favour because Willey was going nowhere with the bat.

You're really a repressed England fan I'm sure of it. U seem to watch every game we play.

England top order and Sri Lanka bowling/fielding were complete disasters. Well played - Matthews, Butler & Woakes !!

Plunkett ... you are a legend ... Hitting a six of the last ball is fantastic but he managed to hit that six when only 2 was needed !

Err where?

Woakes is currently in the test team and opens for his county. Plunkett has been in the test team and is a regular in the touring party. Rashid played in the UAE in tests. Willey opens the bowling for Yorkshire. Ali is in the test team.
