00:00Hello and welcome, one and all.
00:01You join us for this match between Sri Lanka and England.
00:05I'm Adam Gilchrist, and next to me in the commentary position is Ali Mitchell.
00:08Thanks for such a warm introduction.
00:10I'm sure I don't need to tell you just how much I'm looking forward to the day's play.
00:14Thanks, Alison.
00:15It looks like the captains are ready for the toss.
00:17Let's go pitch side.
00:19You'd be tempted to bat first on this pitch,
00:22but with this following attack,
00:23well, it's not a bad idea to get them at the opposition early
00:26and see what problems they can cause.
00:28It's going to be the right-hander opening first up today.
00:31Up the other end, opening with him is the left-hander.
00:34And it's a good combination.
00:38Couldn't get it through the field.
00:42Perfectly timed.
00:48Head over the ball.
00:49Great shot.
00:50That's racing away.
00:53Great shot.
00:55Nice and compact on the front foot.
00:57Head was perfect.
00:57Pressure.
01:02And out.
01:03Oh, how did he get to that one?
01:06Oh, my.
01:07That's stuck.
01:08What a catch.
01:13Coming in,
01:14Burt will be starting from the non-strike.
01:18Timed through the vacant point position.
01:20Racing.
01:21You're going to get punished on this pitch.
01:22Onto that early.
01:24That could be four.
01:26Avoiding the same spot.
01:28Power and precision in that shot.
01:31Just sheer.
01:34Nice shot.
01:35Run is possible.
01:37That's right.
01:40Head over the ball.
01:41Great shot.
01:42That's racing away.
01:46Wide of extra cover.
01:48And away goes the ball to the boundary.
01:52Well timed.
01:53But there's a fielder out there.
01:55And deep point holds on to an easy catch.
01:57Didn't have to move much at all.
02:07Outrageous catch.
02:08What a wicket to get.
02:25That's four all the way.
02:27Beautiful shot.
02:31And caught.
02:32That's just superb.
02:35Heber takes it.
02:36It's great bowling.
02:42Right hander.
02:44Very capable with the bat.
02:47Nice shot.
02:48Cut away.
02:49Running towards the boundary.
02:50Battle catch.
02:53Shot.
02:54Should be runs here.
02:58And great catch.
03:00Brilliant work.
03:14Tanda taking guard.
03:18Great shot.
03:19Rode the ball up with him.
03:20And cuts through point.
03:24Oh, too much room.
03:25And got what it deserved.
03:28Caught.
03:29And it's one of the easiest catches you'll see.
03:41It's in the middle.
03:43And just about ready to go.
03:46Oh, my word.
03:47That is huge.
03:49Middle.
03:49That's a monster of a shot.
03:57That's gone for six.
03:59That is a huge one.
04:01Shanika.
04:01It's plenty from these bowlers.
04:03And the bowler watches that one go straight back over.
04:08Nice shot.
04:09Run is possible.
04:13What a shot.
04:14He hit that one hard.
04:16No need to run.
04:18Head over the ball.
04:20Great shot.
04:20That's racing away.
04:24Too good.
04:25That is huge.
04:27And any sign of nerves approaching the half century can be...
04:32Oh, no.
04:34What a chance.
04:35That's going to race to the boundary.
04:38Oh, too much room.
04:39And got what it deserved.
04:42A good innings.
04:43That's 50.
04:44A simple raise of the bats.
04:46Thumbs up to their batting partner.
04:47And they're ready to go again.
04:54Massive chance.
04:57And dropped.
05:03Beautiful catch.
05:15Nice shot.
05:16Just a flick off the pads.
05:18And that's the end of the innings.
05:20Sri Lanka have set a target of 153 runs.
05:29The openers are coming out.
05:30It's a very gettable total.
05:32They just need to get off to a good start.
05:34But not give anything silly away.
05:36It's the silly stuff that could give the bowlers a sniff in this match.
05:45I love...
05:49That was a lovely...
05:51Oh, yes!
05:53Stunning delivery.
06:09It'll do a quick final check of equipment.
06:13No point chasing that one.
06:15It is racing to the boundary.
06:22That's gone.
06:23Couldn't ask for an easier catch.
06:27Out in the middle.
06:29Lovely player to watch.
06:32No point chasing that one.
06:34It is racing to the boundary.
06:41This batter is brilliant off the back foot.
06:43Transfers their way back.
06:53Beats the cover fielder.
06:54Nice shot.
07:00England starting to hit their stride now after a big over.
07:04Sri Lanka, you know...
07:15Wow, what a catch.
07:17Absolute screamer.
07:18Diving away to the side and keeping his balance as well.
07:24Right-handed batter out in the middle.
07:31Hit that so hard.
07:33Pressed forward.
07:34Got the body shape right and launched it.
07:40Waits for it.
07:41Track!
07:41And that looks to be forward.
07:48Madsen with a standard catch out in the deep.
07:51Didn't really have to move at all.
07:56The lefty is at the crease.
07:58Just about ready to start.
08:13Beats the cover fielder.
08:15Nice shot.
08:16Err's on the side.
08:24Well, that's what you pay your entrance money for.
08:31Wrong.
08:33Yep.
08:37A good innings.
08:38That's 50.
08:39Delivery and keep the batter under pressure.
08:42Power and precision in that shot.
08:45That was a bouncy the moment.
08:51That was just a soup.
08:57Four runs.
09:04Good fielding out in the boundary.
09:06Gone.
09:06Good catch on the boundary.
09:10The new batter.
09:12Right-hander.
09:18Just missed the line.
09:19Not the worst delivery, but that was dispatched with interest.
09:28That's just a brilliantly aggressive shot.
09:31Gets onto the front foot and it's flown over the boundary.
09:44That's a waste of a delivery.
09:45You can't fault.
09:50Get onto that.
09:56Well, that's a waste of a delivery.
09:58Absolutely no trouble getting onto it and dispatching it.
10:03Nicely played.
10:04Runs one.
10:09That's the end of our broadcast for now.
10:11Hope you enjoyed the match and join us again real soon.
10:15Let's get it.
10:25Let's get into it.
10:26It's good to run now.
10:27It's good to see me wing arms.
10:27Everything we Fujifilm with has lost.
10:27It's good to see you.
10:28earlyожу.
