The old adage of one wicket brings two holds true. Moeen Ali out for a duck and his lean run of things with the bat continues.
This match continues to ebb and flow. England need someone to stay with Bairstow. 231/7.
Re: 1st Test: England vs Sri Lanka at Headingley - dillinger10 - 05-20-2016
Broad chops one on and Bairstow looks like he has seen a ghost at the other end.
England have gone from looking at a score of 320+ to hoping to get to 250. England 233/8.

Bairstow brings up his century with two overthrows. A brilliant innings. He is in some kind of form to start this season.

England 243/8 at lunch. This match is very evenly poised. England desperately need Finn and Anderson to hang around with Bairstow for another 15 overs or so after lunch.

Bairstow finally departs for 140. A top class innings. Credit to Finn for hanging around with him. England 289/9.
Re: 1st Test: England vs Sri Lanka at Headingley - dillinger10 - 05-20-2016
299 wickets for Herath as Finn is stumped to end the innings. England all out for 298. A very good recovery from 83/5.

Beautiful delivery around the wicket from Broad picks up the first wicket. SL 10/1.
Re: 1st Test: England vs Sri Lanka at Headingley - dillinger10 - 05-20-2016
A ripper of a delivery from Jimmy. Too much pace and bounce for Silva. 12/2.
Re: 1st Test: England vs Sri Lanka at Headingley - dillinger10 - 05-20-2016
Seriously good delivery from Broad finds the edge and Sri Lanka in trouble at 12/3. Broad making great use of the cloud cover. Three catches for Bairstow.
