Herath to take 6 or 7 this innings, is absolutely bamboozling them.
Spin Bunny KP comes to the crease

:D
Could have had more, the pommy basterds didnt have a clue against him.
Lost their last 6 for stuff all, hilarious.
Hoping for a series whitewash now

Spot on.
Trott is class.
KP is a muppet against spinners yet he keeps telling everyone they dont trouble him.
Bell is one of the most overated cricketers ever.
Patel makes Michael Beer look like Shane Warne
Morgan is a short form specialist.
The only one I disagree with is Cook, he is quality just having a bad run as all batsmen do

Six wickets each dig gave Rangana Herath 12 match wickets.

Impressive.

Yep but we have gone in opposite directions since, we are doing well and the Poms cant win.
The Poms have a massive weakness against quality spinners. The Pakis and Lankans are blessed with two of the best in world cricket unfortunately we are only blessed with average ones

Stuart Broad has been ruled out of the second Test against Sri Lanka in Colombo after being diagnosed with a right calf strain. He will return to the UK immediately and the injury could prevent him joining the IPL for the second year running.

KP has had a lean trot in the past four tests but his performances in tests last year were outstanding. Add that to two centuries in the shorter form of the game this year and his record stands up pretty well against any world batsmen over the past twelve months.

Interesting happenings in Sri Lanka!

There was also a controversial element when the umpires, Asad Rauf and Bruce Oxenford, clamped down on Pietersen's unconventional switch hit when he was only two runs away from his 20th Test century.

Dilshan objected to the switch hit, in which Pietersen changes his hands on the bat to become, in effect, a left-hander, and stopped twice in his run-up as he anticipated a repeat. Rauf intervened on the grounds of timewasting - not against Dilshan but Pietersen - and after a conversation with Oxenford warned Pietersen and informed him there would be a five-run penalty if he repeated the tactic.

The umpires' decision left Pietersen's switch hit tactic, which he has used previously in his brashest moments, in question with clarification urgently being sought from the match officials and the ICC. The stroke has been passed as acceptable by MCC, the arbiters of the Laws, and indeed has been hailed as a positive innovation for the game.

Dilshan's protest came during an over in when Pietersen thrashed his way from 86 to 104. He had unveiled the switch hit in Dilshan's previous over to combat a defensive leg-stump line and when Dilshan delivered a woeful long hop it was apparent that Dilshan, until then Sri Lanka's most effective bowler, had lost the psychological game.

After being told by the umpires that he risked a timewasting penalty, Pietersen bided his time, reverse sweep again with Dilshan committed to the delivery, and reached his hundred to roars of approval from England's sizeable contingent of fans. The umpires were content with that.
