Tempers fray as England resist - ketchim - 06-24-2014
Sri Lanka endured a morning of frustration at Headingley as determined resistance
by England's sixth-wicket pair, Joe Root and Moeen Ali :
was followed by drizzle and an early lunch ::LOL::
on the final day of the second Investec Test at Headingley.

England made only 26 in nearly 18 overs in front of a smattering of spectators as
Root contentedly committed himself to a morning's deadbatting
and Moeen sought to steel himself to a defensive game that is more alien to him.

"I think the Lankans are sledging themselves off focus.
It's not coincidence that the line and length errors
went up with the volume of their voices.." ::LOL::

What was that about with Nasser and Mikey ? :-\
Re: Tempers fray as England resist - ketchim - 06-24-2014
Mathews dries the ball with a towel...he has a pretty defensive field at the moment
which is a little odd.
Neither of these captains likes to over-attack, but surely now is time to go for broke ?
