Doing a rain dance...

This is a pretty poor loss really. Should've played the advantage, another typical asia performance unfortunately.

Can still win the series no doubt. But lessons need to be learnt

I like awesome spinners, and Sri lanka definitely have two of them! Great to watch. It's a disappointing performance by the Aussies but certainly not unexpected - Smith is our only batsman who is reliable outside of Australia.

SOK and Nevill doing okay here though, just soaking up balls.

wrong. it was pad first, just. just just. probably still would've hit him outside the line anyway

Bill Manspeaker · July 30, 2016, 07:48:16 PM

You obviously lived through too much Australian Domination. :P

Not looking good and I think I'll be switching over to Boomer soon.

Hazlewood: 7
