4/61 trouble ahead

5 down now and David Hussey dropped and it was a sitter.

now Christian

Gizmo replays awaited on the Christain decision. In any case, this is interesting now. Aus and SL both want the DRS, but they can't have it in this game since India, who aren't even playing this match, don't like it? Right, Hawk-Eye shows it would have missed leg stump.

Perera to Christian, OUT, Another one bites the dust. Thisara has pinned Christian in front with an indipper. He was looking to get across to middle stump and work it to leg, but the ball burst through to hit the pad. Was it missing leg stump? I want to see a replay of that. Right, Hawk-Eye shows it would have missed leg stump.

DT Christian lbw b Perera 6 (13b 1x4 0x6) SR: 46.15

now play stopped due to rain. thank fuk.

^^ Wasn't out, missing leg stump but because India don't want to use the 2 referral system Australia and Sri Lanka can't so he has to go.

Pissing down raining at the moment and based on the score I hope it keeps raining.

D/L in SL favour

Covers coming off and the Aussies up against it all over the park and need to score some quick runs.

41 over game
so 15 to go

Target for SL 159

152 it seems

8/146

phew.

158/10

Thank God for David Hussey, could have been much worse.

^ could have been out early as well

T20I at Wellington looks tight

saw 6 / 82 at some stage complete with a recycled Cpt'n .....................

England are once again the best team in the Worl; centuries are easy pickings for our openers...

^ England aren't No. 1. They lost that (Test) ranking when they lost the (Test) Series. To get it back they'll probably have to ace their next two test series.

^ we are number 1 and you know it! Never mind the rankings, they're only important when they list us as the official number 1 - at other times they are inaccurate...

Adjusted your post there Fair-weather Betty.

^ that's very unfair. The fact that I'm sometimes interested in new vehicles and reading novels has little, if anything, to do with the results achieved...

It is very noticeable, however, that the Aussies are nowhere to be seen after their losses.

I am the first Aussie on here after they lose.

You have got to admit it Betty. You don't like the heat when it gets a bit hot.

It's called a good win by Sri Lanka and the Aussies trying out new combinations when they didn't need to win. Back on target today with a probable bonus point.

I noted your avoidance of this thread during the Paki whitewash though.

I thought our bowlers were very good.
