Sri Lanka tour

[Broncoman]

Sri Lanka are batting first in the first test and we have them 1-10 in just under 5 overs. Starc with the wicket.

 

[Sproj]

2-17

 

[Sproj]

3-18

 

[Broncoman]

4-43 O'Keefe just got Matthews. Caught in the slips by Smith.

 

[Broncoman]

5-84 at lunch. Sri Lankan middle order taking it to our bowlers here. De Silva on debut is playing very well and Keperra just hit 9 of a Hazelwood over. Hazelwood our best bowler in the opening session.

 

[Broncoman]

It's really greet seeing O'Keefe making an impact in test cricket after being ignored for so long. Causing a lot of trouble for the Sri Lankans.

 

[Sproj]

SL fighting back very well.

 

[Mister Wright]

This has turned out to be a pretty good test.

 

[Broncoman]

Jon Holland has been named to debut in the second test. Can't they just pick Ahmed instead I rate him a lot higher than Holland.

Haha another Victard plod picked alongside other Victard plods such as Boland, Lewis, Hastings (test), Harwood, Quiney etc

 

[Sproj]

SL 1/0 after 0.1

 

[Mister Wright]

But they've recovered well.

 

[ZTop]

Australia is now 7-80. Very nice collapse, 3 wickets no runs

 

[ZTop]

8-85 doing very well

 

[mitch222]

Pretty pathetic here. That top order needs a shake up. Some of them just cant play spin for the life of them and Warner is one of them. Pretty tame dismissals from Smith too considering he is generally viewed as one of our better batsmen against spin. Maybe they should just treat games like one dayers and try to win with 250 on the board (which is achievable with the bowlers they have)

 

[Sproj]

Hattie for Herath.

 

[ZTop]

9-106

 

[Sproj]

SL 3-31 at lunch.

 

[gordjw]

SL 145/6 now, but the first innings lead means it's really 318/6
