Root does well not to over-balance and survives a close stumping chance
Thought he was a gonna from his initial reaction |

Vince went for 35. He'll be disappointed but I'm sure he'll be given time.

Important that these 2 get through the final hour against the new ball if we want to post an imposing total

One of the positives in having Moeen down the order in that he has experience at facing the new ball

Moving up 1 in the order doesn't seem to have affected Bairstow
Playing with lots of confidence |

Bairstow gone for 48. Another relative disappointment.

You can tell England have had a decent day, all the doom and gloom merchants have stayed away from this thread.

I think England will be relatively happy with the score at close of play
Big opportunity in the morning to score quickly and try to get to 400+ 310/6 at stumps |

Sri Lanka will be relieved that theyve kept England under control for most of the day. Still 310-6 is not a score to be sniffed at and promises much for us as we go into day 2.

Not the most exciting day's play. England are in a pretty good position. Sri Lanka did OK, better than the predictions of folk who totally wrote them off, they took some excellent catches.

SL have lost a couple of bowlers and still bowled pretty well today. Batting? We'll see. I wouldn't be putting any money on them getting a big score but I suppose you just never know....

A good solid days play yesterday but Root is beginning to worry me - his failure to turn half centuries into centuries is becoming a problem - a problem of course that many players would love to have - if they averaged 54.46!
![]() I think that Jimmy and Stuart are going to cause absolute mayhem again when we are finally bowled out. |
