00:00The arrival of Kumar Sangakkara means that England have two left-handers to bowl at now.
00:05England, I think, averaged around about 1.9 and over through the test match.
00:12Oh, he's hit him. He's hit him. He's ducked right into it.
00:15That's a very good dancer.
00:17It stayed down a little bit. Sangakkara was watching it.
00:20Then he went down and it hit him, I think I'm right in saying,
00:24on those protective bars around the front of the helmet.
00:28Have a look at this.
00:29That indeed was a very good bouncer.
00:31It surprised Sangakkara.
00:34And unlike in the first test, we've seen England getting these bouncers in as a surprise ploy.
00:48That's a very good shot. That's a beautiful shot.
00:53On the back foot, Sangakkara caressed that one wide of mid-off.
00:58Boy, he is really lovely to watch.
01:01When he gets going, he can play every shot in the book.
01:04That shot did have a stamp of glass, as you could see, Sangakkara.
01:07The time he's had on it, and just hitting through the line.
01:11Timing absolutely immaculate.
01:16Yes, the really good players use that crease, don't they?
01:20And more often than not, they know how to play well off the back foot.
01:25Again short, and again for lovely shot from Sangakkara.
01:29Goff ball too short to Sangakkara in the first test match.
01:33Just judging by the last over, I thought that he'd got the message, but those two deliveries were certainly that
01:39last one too short.
01:40Didn't he play that one well again?
01:42Just see the timing and hitting through it.
01:46Picking that gap.
01:47Placement again, absolutely brilliant.
01:52Off to Sangakkara.
01:57Might have been a bit of batting there.
01:59Let's see what the umpire does.
02:02No, he's, he's signal leg by.
02:04It couldn't have been far away.
02:05And probably pitched around about that leg stump, I'd say.
02:09Probably just outside.
02:11Let's have a look at it.
02:12One gets a feeling that umpire Kure felt that it pitched outside leg stump.
02:21Marginally outside leg stump and that really counted for just the leg buys.
02:28Clearly pitched outside leg stump, so no chance of an LBW there.
02:31What he needs to do is just get it.
02:38Short delivery again, and that one pulled away.
02:41Just the odd loose ball, which they can do without England.
02:45It's all about discipline here.
02:47They got themselves into a good position.
02:48They don't want to let it slip.
02:50This goes to show how well Sangakkara is in touch.
02:54Anything that is slightly offline is very quick to pounce on it.
02:59And that one has pulled it away.
03:03Sangakkara, he's shown his wares, both on the back foot and uh,
03:07I've seen some wonderful drives off him.
03:10It looks to me to be...
03:15Let Kugel be out, and he's given.
03:18Now, the young batsman might find himself in a bit of trouble here.
03:24No matter whether it came off there or not.
03:27Well, you're saying, Ian, that Craig White has grown in confidence.
03:33Confident enough to come round the wicket straight away.
03:35Did it in Pakistan.
03:37Slippery customer.
03:38Plenty of pace.
03:39He's got bounce here.
03:40He's wrapped to Sangakkara on the glove or forearm guard.
03:45I think it might have been the forearm guard.
03:46It's gone up to Gully.
03:49And Rudy Kurtzen has no hesitation in giving Sangakkara out.
03:53Craig White gets a wicket in his first over.
03:57I think he's fortunate.
03:58I think it's off the arm guard.
04:01Yeah, it's off the arm guard.
04:06Now, it's a bad decision.
04:07It goes against the batsman.
04:10He's gone anyway.
04:11Sangakkara, he's gone for 17.
04:13It's 69 for three.
