00:00...batting and we join our match commentators at the Gabba.
00:21Short of a length and Jai Saria just nudging that one away nicely for a single so he's off the mark.
00:30That's out, got him, caught second slip, Jai Saria's gone, that's a big wicket to go off.
00:35Good ball too, just bouncing a little bit outside off stump.
00:38I got the feeling he was trying to steer that one down to third man.
00:42It bounced, hits the edge and was nicely taken.
00:47Hick is not dropping many, he's in good form in the slips.
00:52The extra bounce made that a difficult shot.
00:54It was close to him but he used to slightly lower bounce on the subcontinent
00:59where you can play that late cut with ease.
01:03But against the new ball here, a lot more difficult.
01:06Sri Lanka a one for two.
01:10Marvin Latapatu is the new batsman.
01:1257 matches, 37 his average and a strike rate of under 70.
01:21Oh he likes that shot, he loves it.
01:23I don't think he's hit that one hard enough, has he?
01:25Well it's running out there, it may just make it.
01:29Yes it's got there.
01:32And it's a clue, hasn't wasted too much time getting onto his pull shot.
01:45That's well played.
01:45Into the gap nicely and picked up just short of the fence.
02:00Oh it's through the offside field again and that'll go all the way for four.
02:04That's well played.
02:05So Goff in his second over, receiving a little bit of hammer.
02:10It was a lovely shot.
02:15Well England might have to reassess the short pitch tactics in regard to colour with Arriner
02:20because he's very, very comfortable on the back foot.
02:24We've already seen him play a pull shot.
02:26That's gone for four and that's a lovely back foot drive.
02:34That's nice timing actually.
02:35Oh and back to the third.
02:45Because that throw needed to be spot on and he may have been in the spot of bother.
02:56Oh good shot, very well played.
02:58He's hit that one in the air, dead straight down the ground and well that's the sort of
03:03shot that you see often and perhaps even should see more often in one day cricket.
03:07Beautiful shot.
03:09Once again it shows you how comfortable Kalu with Arriner is on the back foot.
03:14He's good in defence off the back foot but he's also very good at attacking player off
03:19the back foot.
03:20Just hitting that one on the rise he just hit straight through it.
03:23Lovely straight follow through and he knew where it was headed.
03:27Well there's that cover drive we've talked about.
03:34He's a beautiful striker with a ball at it for two.
03:37May not go to the rope.
03:38They'll pick up three.
03:43This is a good start after being one for two that we covered.
03:48The run rate's okay.
03:49By Peter Parker.
03:56This should be okay.
04:08That's fine.
04:14Well he pulled away.
04:15He's a good form.
04:17The little guy.
04:19He's good in defence as well.
04:33Slanker.
04:33Scamping through.
04:34That's the way to go.
04:37Just having a look at that cheeky little single that was taken at the end of last over.
04:41They hesitated for a minute and they thought, hang on, he's very deep back there.
04:45Got the dive in but always making it.
04:48No.
04:48That's how deep the England fielder was and I'm not sure that he should have been that deep.
04:57This time he gets away one hand.
04:58He gets away well.
04:59Cracking shot, beautiful shot.
05:11He's a wonderful driver.
05:12Well, that's the first bad ball in the last couple of overs.
05:17Too full and much too wide.
05:19Martin Atta Patu says, thank you very much.
05:24He's been bogged down.
05:26That's just what you need to get yourself going.
05:27And that's superb running.
05:34Good early call.
05:36The crowd loving it.
05:37The crowd loving it.
05:38Close, close, close.
05:45Maybe just going down to the next side.
05:47Up by Steve Davis, shakes his head.
05:49Headly not happy.
05:50Bit of seam there.
05:51Well, let's have another look at it.
05:55Well, it's not going down.
05:56It's just whether it's too high.
05:57It's going for this.
05:58Gets into mid-wicket.
06:00Interesting over.
06:01Eight runs off it.
06:02Big shout for LB.
06:03It's one for 51.
06:04.
06:05.
06:06.

06:58.
06:59partnership he's got a very good arm running well good cricket eh excellent bill that's
07:05where we're talking over there a little excited though so i'm going to the third and dean headley
07:09has got one of the best arms in the england side and watch this he picks this up and gets it away
07:19gone for it look at past well he's trying to be a bit backhanded i don't think there was a chance
07:25but it wasn't a great effort i think he was running more than trying to catch it well i don't think
07:30he thought he had a chance of catching it i think he was more interested in saving the four
07:34it would have been a very interesting catch if he had actually got a hand to it
07:40look at it here it's not pulled that well but i think it's always going to be wide of alan
07:45malady and i think he realized that and he made the decision that to save the boundary
07:50is more important than putting in the posy dive
07:55just like that magnificent shot not all that bad a ball and a drop chance
08:05and uh just a little boundary to go with it
08:12how's graham hicks fingers there kalawitharana's signature shot
08:25that's good running
08:31beautiful chip that's a favorite stroke in limited overs games where the field is in
08:36with the field restriction circle
08:41but it's uh it's unlikely to be precisely what they've run i think there's a massive feet and
08:49rope and hands and all sort of things there it's the end of the over and uh
08:57they ran three
09:03well
09:03like a horse going past the winning post with one leg in the air
09:15that's beautifully played and a lovely piece of feeling
09:18nick knight the left hand opening busman
09:26forceful shot off the back foot night a reverse cup picking that one up easily
09:32good running
09:44all that big a boundary here but uh that's good call good judgment
09:53that's a good shot good shot for no runs
10:16it wasn't a bad ball either it was a good length and didn't give him very much room
10:23this is where the tight the tight ring of fielders on the offside has performed quite well here for
10:28england both batsmen are force filling forcing shots trying to get through those fields when alex
10:34stuart at this stage has kept them there it'll remains to be seen when he'll drop one back to prevent the boundary
10:48it'll be seen when he's been in position of having one stop
11:09by the fieldsman because of very good fielding and now he's just guided away just a few yards
11:14to the backward point position but that's uh gone for four there's no doubt about that umpire was signaling it at the moment
11:38this is 50. very well controlled innings indeed
11:44from my little fellow
11:47he's got several sticks of dynamite left in that bat in tonight's innings let's hope
11:53and he can really really put the weights on england
12:14and he can really put the weights on him
12:28and he can really put the weights on him
12:29Well, it didn't take the Sri Lankans long to invent a shot, managed to top edge the
12:56sweep shot, line of the balls just outside off, spinning into the stumps, Cullowitharona
13:03hasn't had a look at him, but top edge to sweep, plenty of space out there, quite safe.
13:19As we see a change, Adam Hollyoak coming on to bowl from the members end here in Brisbane.
13:25Andy, wristy shot, something the Sri Lankans are very, very good at, always a gap just
13:43next to the keeper, and they're probably as qualified as anyone and skilled at exploiting
13:48that gap as anyone in the world.
13:50You see the line's a bit wide, the wrist came in, hit it a little bit late, not as deliberate
13:56as it could have been, a little outside edge-ish.
13:59Quite often two runs down there.
14:05Decides to go a little squarer this time, again picks up two, Adam Hollyoak has to watch his
14:15line here.
14:16From the batting point of view, that was unlucky, but a good shot.
14:28This is all that short, and he's played it magnificently.
14:35Not that short, as you said, Richie, this is his signature.
14:38Doesn't have to be that short for the little man.
14:41Alex Stewart's done something very good here.
14:43He's moved this man about to field the ball in front of square.
14:48That's prevented the boundary in a regulation field.
15:07One for 97.
15:08That's in the air, this is going to be out.
15:14Yes, he's got him.
15:22He's hit that one, straight down the throat at Headley.
15:27Well, I suppose it could be argued that it has got to him, but I don't think so.
15:36I think he played the shot he would normally play.
15:40Just didn't quite hit it right.
15:41shot he would normally play just didn't quite hit it right there was a bit of top edge in it
15:45and it went flying away down to headley who's made the catch
15:49balls with a fair bit of overspin robert croft and hence he gets a little more bounce than you
15:54would expect and perhaps that's what brought him undone the ball just hitting slightly towards the
16:00top edge dean headley taking the catch comfortably and good innings ends color with aronoff getting a
16:06good round of applause and he's gone for 58 and he's two for 99. arjuna ranatunga
16:18probably next best to mark taylor in world cricket at the moment arjuna
16:27simple comes up to 100 for sri lanka but they've now lost two wickets for croft getting rid of
16:32uh from this color with arona yes that's a bit of a blow yeah he tried to pull this one away got
16:42underneath it a little bit and of course head he was waiting for it took it quite easily didn't
16:48quite middle it
16:54gone caught and bowled by adam hollyhock no change in expression there from arjuna runatunga but he
17:02won't be too thrilled by that dismissal no he was trying to force it a little bit and it wasn't quite
17:10there to do what he was trying to do looks as if he was uh well he was really doing nothing wasn't he
17:17just misread it totally and just chipped it straight back to the bowler almost went off the middle of
17:21the bat so the england support is very happy and uh well arjuna has been playing pretty well he's got
17:27a duck in this innings be a bit of a blow for his side now because they've gone from a really good
17:32position into uh well just an average position there it is three for 102. hashan tilakaratna is the new
17:43batsman this time he finds the gap no one all that keen to chase it it's not that they need worry
17:55it's uh this is a good shot nice timing into the gap
18:12good shot
18:21yes that's very well played and that's going to go all the way yes it does good effort
18:25however it's uh gone to fall that is very well played
18:2949 he's got marvin atapadu
18:39that's a very good half century a good partnership with color with aruna
18:43and now he's joining on uh 50. three for 126.
18:48got him good change of pace again adam holly oak doing a lot of damage here in the spell
19:01that's good buying on a good pitch he's going at the stumps he's just slow medium deception
19:09so i was just saying bill 240 is looking a pretty good uh total here drag in from outside the off stump
19:15but onto the top of the bales fourth wicker down 128.
19:21roshan mark a number of the next batsman in
19:27big shout flexion forward
19:32far offline
19:37maybe the inside edge
19:41seam upright
19:45little bit inside the edge he was well forward
19:56got him well thought night we're talking about night scully
20:00that was going he caught it easily
20:03yes he's very good and uh the one thing he does need to do is make more runs and force his way into the test side
20:10he's a good cricketer left-hander very talented and this is an indication of how well he feels
20:18hit right off the middle of the bat and with terrific force that's good stuff
20:22it's five for 139 it drinks
20:31and that's when
20:32what a big job to do here
20:44One hundred and three, four from the other, five or one fifty.
20:57Well fielded and, oh wow, good job, yes I think he's probably got in, well if he hasn't
21:03it'll be very close, well that'll be two out of two for England, this looks very close
21:11fair brother, what a stop and he gets down and then on his knees has a go, quick look
21:16around has a go and I think that he's got him, oh has he, oh this will be interesting, I think
21:23he's probably home there, the leg just getting in the way of the batsman, of the bat.
21:41Well that's well played, that's bad bowling, the ball just a little bit wide, giving the
21:47batsman a bit of room and he's taken it well, mind you it's easy to say it's a bad ball, the
21:53batsman's still got to get it into the right place and that time he did.
21:56It's been a danger that position, I've been worried about that position for the Englishman,
22:01it's played their point fairly square and if Robert Croft does get outside off, that's
22:06what can happen. That's a good shot, well played, that wasn't that short and he's managed
22:13to get away for four, well that's as good a shot as being played today.
22:21Touch of risk, swinging this one across the line from off the stumps, not as short as
22:28Robby made it look and hence he got it well in front of square, timed it well enough to
22:33beat the man who wasn't too far away from it.
22:40Sorry Rich, it's gone, cover, Bearbrother, takes the catch, that's a good wicket.
22:52Available wicket for England. It certainly is, 6-1 down, 186 on the board. It's been a good performance.
23:03They've clung on to their catches, the best one has been by Nick Knight.
23:08Geerlem has chipped in with the wicket there, and all the England supporters will be delighted
23:15with this, 6-100 and 85.
23:17He's in the vast with a very good strike rate, a 70.3 for a tail ender. Average is 12, he wouldn't
23:27get many opportunities to score a lot of runs.
23:35Roll my 50.
23:42He's been a stalwart for Sri Lanka for a number of years. He's been there with our junior runner
23:48Mahanama and one or two others. And over the years, their experience has carried them through.
23:56There, he's just been deflecting and nudging, occasional boundary, only two of them, and he's
24:03made 50 from 85 balls.
24:10It's passed off, getting to the ground.
24:14That's the single.
24:16Now England's, I think you're right, but you're going to go to favourites as an early favourite
24:20for the United States. It's early days yet, but the bowlers have been excellent in test
24:25matches, and now they're fielding, it's lifted about 50%.
24:30Looking a very professional unit.
24:37Got him, he's bowled very well. Paul Wentz, excellent cricket by England.
24:43That's another big plus mark for Alan Mulally. Just at the right moment, he's pulled out a
24:49quick Yorker. Hasn't bowled too many of them, and he's not the sort of bowler who seems to
24:54me to be too impressed with Yorkers. He's generally pushing the ball away from the right-handers,
24:58and that is a beauty.
25:01Just landed about a foot in front of the stumps, and came in on the angle as well.
25:07Another bigger for Mulally. And another little setback for Sri Lanka.
25:13Pramodja Nicarama Singer is the new batsman. Pramodja Nicarama Singer on strike to Mulally.
25:22Chips it nicely. Well there you go, he's found the gap first ball. That's well played.
25:28Philly Slank going for maybe another Yorker. Straight out of the dressing room and right off the
25:34meat of the bat.
25:37Quite pleased with it as well. I gathered a half smile to the batsman at the other end.
25:42He's already made a half century.
25:45Now the final delivery for Sri Lanka. They won the toss and batted.
25:48They won the toss and batted.
25:50All the guys for it.
25:59Seven for 207.
26:02So 207 for seven off their 50 overs for Lanka. They'll be very disappointed with that,
26:07because although they lost their first wicket with just one run, or two runs rather, on the board,
26:10they then had a great stand between Atapatu and Kalawatharana. They put on 97.
26:14And at 99 for two, they look set for a big total, maybe 275. But really the wheels came off rather.
26:21An excellent 58 for Kalawatharana. 61 balls and five fours.
26:25And for Atapatu, his 51 slightly slower of 90 balls.
26:28And a good innings from Hashan Tilakaratna as well. 50 off 86 balls with two fours.
26:33But really you have to ask, is it enough? 207 for seven.
26:37And let's have a look at who did the damage for the England bowling.
26:40Well, one wicket for Darren Gough and respectively for Alan Mullally.
26:44No wickets rather surprisingly for Dean Headley.
26:46Mark Elam picked up one Robert Croft one.
26:48But the damage was done by Adam Hollyoak, the Surrey captain who took three wickets in his ten overs for 32 runs.
26:55And I guess that England will be pretty pleased with that performance.
26:58Now this is going to be a good contest.
27:04Just enough runs to keep the pressure on England.
27:09Not quite enough runs to be sure of winning.
27:12Now England need to get away to a decent start.
27:15And the Sri Lankans need to hold their fielding and have their bowlers bowled very accurately.
27:21So Chiminder Vass about to start with the ball and on strike and nick night.
27:28Oh, that would have been close.
27:43And Roshan Mahanama is one of the most dangerous fieldmen in their line-up.
27:49And he came across quickly, but it looked as if there might have been a bit of a collision
27:53because Moodley-Durren came in as well.
27:55They almost got in each other's way there.
28:02Oh, well bowled.
28:03That one did swing a little bit and night went after it.
28:06Just pushed away after it and it beat him all ends up.
28:10Now it's a good late swing and again there's plenty of bounce there.
28:31Very good shot.
28:32Extremely good shot.
28:33That's a little bit short and night was inside it and hit it down and hard.
28:37Nick Knight's a very important part of English cricket at the moment.
28:45They need someone at the top of the order, preferably a left-hander,
28:50to come in and challenge Abbott and Butcher and the others who are up there.
28:54Nick Knight's been around and he's been in the test side.
28:56But he is a very good fieldsman, both on the ground and in the air.
29:01And I think he's a pretty good player as well.
29:07Oh, that's the idea.
29:09All the fieldsmen have to be up and he's gone over the top.
29:12Didn't quite get it in the middle of the bat.
29:14But with all the fieldsmen up, it's a pretty safe shot to play.
29:18That's another no ball and nicely steered away again.
29:27It's always there, the fieldsmen.
29:30And then 194 to win.
29:36And the run rate at the moment, pretty good.
29:41Zoyser continuing.
29:44Well, that's another good shot.
29:46Good time.
29:47Stewart getting into the act.
29:48That one swung in a little bit and Stewart watched it all the way onto the meat of the bat.
29:51Lovely drive.
29:53Mid-on's just a little bit wide.
29:55And he beat him easily.
29:57It's one of the most difficult strokes to play.
30:00Wasn't all that bad at delivery.
30:02He's hit it beautifully.
30:04And the man at mid-on was in fairly close trying to save the single.
30:09Always well placed as well as hit with great authority.
30:14Oh, he smashed that one.
30:17Well, if it's up there, it's going to disappear tonight.
30:20And it seems we're in a very aggressive mood.
30:23And that English group there are enjoying every second of it.
30:26There are thousands of them in Brisbane.
30:28And their boys, the England team, have got off to a good start.
30:34Zoyser is obviously a good prospect, but he's the least experienced of all out there.
30:38And to give a player of Stewart's ability and experience so much width is just asking for trouble.
30:46Almost a free hit.
30:47Oh, he's got that one away as well.
30:52Just behind Squibb.
30:53And he'll pick up another two.
30:57So, eleven runs from the over.
31:01In the air and wide of the middle fieldsman.
31:08Short again.
31:20And Nick Knight going after that full shot.
31:23Oh, shot.
31:24Hardly moved it.
31:25High grip on the bat, Stewart.
31:26When he hits them, they stay hit.
31:27Certainly does.
31:28He does generate some bat speed with that high grip.
31:30And when he connects, they certainly hit the boundary rope hard enough.
31:31A little bit of width here.
31:32And that's where he likes them.
31:33Just allowed to get his front foot.
31:34Just forward to the crease.
31:35Waits for the ball.
31:36Hits through the line.
31:37And that's where he likes them.
31:38Just allowed to get his front foot just forward to the crease.
31:39Waits for the ball.
31:40Hits through the line.
31:41Very well struck.
31:43And that's where he likes them.
31:44Just allowed to get his front foot just forward to the crease.
31:46Waits for the ball.
31:47Hits through the line.
31:52Very well struck.
31:53rope hard enough a little bit of width here and that's where he likes them just allowed to get
31:59his front foot just forward of the crease waits for the ball hits through the line very well struck
32:11number 47 at the gabba the second of the carl united one day nationals there it goes that's
32:19good cricket they're on fire england looking very good
32:27they give some way to bring up the 50 partnership for nick knight and alex stewart
32:33not a lot wrong with that ball nick knight once again having the nerve to charge down the wicket
32:39a little bit one and a half steps hit through the line off of such a good wicket
32:43a bit of powerfully struck four starting to starting the middle them with the englishman
32:49and that spells danger for sri lanka
32:56goes again this time on the off side with a clear mid off
33:00i like this guy i'm looking forward to friday night at the normal quick friend i can tell you
33:0412 old good line good comeback
33:15oh oh good oh oh and a half volley great piece of fielding
33:19nahhanama does well defends cover number 56
33:26nahhanama did a great job here building on the circle that's 30 meters just couldn't quite uh
33:32uh have time to get that extra step in which would have got underneath the ball it was hit that hard
33:50over the wicket it's got a swing back and look at that
33:54zoyser was quite confident
33:55zoyser's dragged several reckless shots this over from stewart it's probably pitched outside leg stump
34:05going on to hit the stumps but uh peter parker ruled not out
34:15wait call oh good building and he's called for the photo
34:20one by peter parker really doing did well on the angle stuart looks comfortable
34:29or does he
34:32looking confident modest appeal
34:36what a magnificent piece of fielding whether it's out or not it was a magnificent piece of fielding
34:42quick quick across the ground i reckon that's out
34:48he's gone yes he's gone
34:52can you look cool and spot on tonight
34:55certainly that was a similar view to mine
35:00as i said before there's no shortage of base in this sri lankan side stuart thought he could sneak one
35:05here but nearly during so quick happened to be accurate at that occasion i'm pretty sure he's
35:10generally very good with his throws as well peter parker calls for the third umpire answers in the
35:16negative for alex stuart he's run out for 24 and one for 59. graham hick with a very good
35:23strike rate a good average 77 matches for england
35:30not a bad start that's what he does to you sometimes he nicks them other times he belts them
35:40very good shot wasn't all that short graham hick has seized on it it looks very much like a
35:57calculated aggression out there from the three players we've seen so far knight and stuart and
36:03now graham hick
36:11graham hick i think has decided that uh with this lightning round maybe is the time to just accelerate
36:16a little bit not try and hit that too hard but lifting it over the infield we thought he might go
36:22in that long an area i think that might just cause a change in the field
36:29one twenty one to win and 32 overs
36:46well the umpire at uh square leg is rather non-plus the sri lunkans they're all congratulating
36:52uh kind of a tower at the moment the umpire they have to uh turn around to find where he was
36:59and he has called for the adjudication and that looks to be real problems for england
37:08i think that's problems with cheering us out
37:13i'm going to try to slide his foot back it appeared to stay there whether he tried to
37:16it wouldn't move and it's two for 87. look at the third umpire now the fair brothers seem to run that
37:32first run very lazily now to me there was a long two here
37:35he's home he's home he's home he's well home but he just ran that first run that she very
37:46lethargically and that's what we're talking about really he makes it quite comfortable in the end but
37:52the hesitation and graham hick was always looking for two there
37:55this is all that throw if that would have hit that would have been out but he he missed just
38:05missed and the bowels were off in a flash but that just allows that extra little bit of time let's
38:10have a look at the replay
38:15so two for 99 109 runs to win
38:25well tony
38:34oh he's hit that one very firmly straight down the ground he's powerful all right lovely straight hit
38:42this is nothing like the full swing either on this occasion from graham hick watch the polar he
38:48he leaps but the ball's well past him by the time he's getting up there that was hit very very firmly
38:55oh in the air what a good shot that's a magnificent cool shot he's got it away just wide of mid on
39:08and he really is starting to look dangerous
39:12well we've talked about his partner being a very good player of the pool shot graham hick
39:16uh is a powerful hitter at that shot this was just a little short arm jab by joe but was effective
39:24wasn't all that short
39:28quickly picked the length and that's a good shot
39:30that is going to be out we got keepers under it and he pulled himself together in the end
39:42and got it he was circling around it like the indians around the wagons at one stage
39:48and he's finally grabbed it graham hick has gone and it's three for 128
39:58perfect length inducing the the risky shot from graham hick there's been no need for that
40:04and callow look at him get himself dizzy the stumps look out managed to hang on to it pretty happy with
40:12himself at that stage i think the heart's about the pound out of his shirt england now three for one two eight
40:24new bachelor's adam hollywood
40:2878 needed from 21 overs certainly gets in hand looks okay at the moment
40:33but it depends on what happens in the next two or three overs
40:46and he has ripped one through his defense that has spun a long long way
40:51don't know if the batsman got an inside edge on it but i doubt it
40:54it has gone from outside off stump and has hit i think middle need to check that on the replay
41:03perfect mirror literate in this wide flighted delivery a little bit of rough there now rip it
41:10back through holly oaks semi-defensive shot three things contributed to that a little delay before
41:17that ball some fantastic field placings by ranatunga bringing in the short mid-off
41:22making adam holly oak look to force it past him and magnificent bowling score at the moment four for 130
41:33michael lane's had a checkered time since uh coming to australia just a week or so ago
41:38been featured on fielding things he's run himself out now he's on a hat trick
41:52and i go for two here oh it's gonna be a markup oh it was a markup you can see that coming a mile
42:00the man coming in must always have first call
42:07the captain i'd scratch my head too
42:09oh he's taking the bales off uh and it's not out again a direct hit was needed it may have made a
42:24big difference it was mahanama who's one of the better fielders he had a real opportunity there
42:32that couldn't hit the stumps well they're running this has got to be close oh no it's a hopeless road
42:44it's a little balloon lollipop
42:49no way that uh that was going to get anywhere near a run out i think it actually brings up his 50. i think
42:55probably what happened the ball didn't go into his hands and um he just could do nothing about oh that's
42:59a very good half century by fair brother 50 off 86 balls and he's steering them to victory at the
43:07moment oh he wants to have a look at it that will be a great stumping if he's pulled it off
43:18the batsman seems pretty confident about it really obviously had the eyes on the boot and saw that he
43:25had a chance very difficult to tell whether it's up or down and still moving flimsy evidence
43:36certainly goes up the question is is it back down when the bales come off
43:42i'll tell you what i think that's out
43:46and he's got him that's a great stumping that is a great stumping
43:49and well it was uh what was it about an inch two centimeters off the ground
43:59it's five for 187.
44:04so mark elam now coming out to to join fairbrother who's going so well
44:10a big appeal asking oh he's got him he's lbw he's done a great job well he's got an lbw
44:24is this going to change it a little bit they seem pretty happy about it look at them
44:28absolutely joyful out there and the crowd all of a sudden they've gone quiet for a while down there
44:33that punk that um sri lankan crowd down there all of a sudden the flags are out again let's have
44:39another look at it well he didn't really go far forward and in fact it hit the the back leg and
44:46he wasn't far in front of the crease i think that's a pretty reasonable decision from umpire parker got
44:53the sri lankans excited and might just send a little bit of panic into the england camp
44:59six for 190. so robert croft is the new batsman
45:08good cut shot another single eight off eight
45:18attempt at the yorker there he's got it away nicely this is going to run away down towards
45:22the boundary it's going to get there i think will it no it won't not quite
45:26come through for the three and that's it well that's a another very good game and uh another
45:35good victory for england fair brother without any shadow of a doubt the matter of the match in fact
45:40that's just been announced 67 of 105 balls and it was his steadying influence and some wonderful shots
45:48that got england behind tonight victory to england for the second day running by four wickets and the
45:54responsibility really rested on the shoulders of neil fair brother and uh how well he took it
45:59his 67 came in 105 balls and to give you an idea how it was scored he only scored one four in that 67
46:05and just the one six his partnership with mark elaine uh rather ironically threatened to slow the whole
46:10thing down and scuffer it for england but elaine was out eventually and mark elam went quickly but
46:14robert croft yet again the second day running uh had a very good job he's 10 not out and hit the
46:18winning run and so a very good victory for england let's look at the um sri lankan bowling figures
46:24well they use seven bowlers uh vas and soiser and uh with them a singer were luckless the three
46:28pace bowlers but eliteran took three and really looks like he's coming into form for this series
46:33the leg spinner chandana took just the one wicket and then jai suria who bowled extremely well
46:38for his figures of 35 runs of his 10 overs but he didn't take a wicket and just two overs there for
46:43hushan to the correct man well as i came into the studio one of our technicians said to me when
46:50was the last time that england won two consecutive matches was it in margaret fashion's days well it
46:54wasn't quite that bad i can tell you but on the other hand they'll be very buoyed up by these two
46:58consecutive wins and it's put them top of the table so the next match is in
