A few points here guys. Firstly I agree about the standard of our fielding. At the minute if you nick one against us you know you have about a 65% of getting away with it.

Secondly I had high hopes for my boy Monty but although he has taken a wicket or two he hasn't really come up to scratch I fear. I know hes still learning but he had to be right on top of his game for us to compete here. Still a mystery to me why Swann hasn't got a game yet. Our seamers have not been that effective so 2 spinners had to be worth a go IMO.

Thirdly we must pay tribute to the excellent Jayawardene (apologies for spelling) Its interesting how captaincy affect certain players. A call to Ninj or Seamer to see some figures on various players as I would be keen to see that. We do n]know however that the SL skipper has really come on since he got the stripes.

Very hard to see a way out for England now and I feel we probably can't even save this game never mind win it. However great to see Galle back in action after all the troubles they have had; things like that do put the game into perspective I guess.
