    £2.8m matched at 1.01 to win £14k on Betfair. Squeaky bum time for the layers - Sri Lanka's price is now 50 times that at 1.50

    Two Sri Lankan batters out when on 97

    This innings goes to show how we're not the same bowling attack without Archer and Rashid

    no idea what this means, apart from it was a dead cert England would win & now we are close to losing.

    why are we bowling Curran ?  Might as well just throw the ball to the boundary.

    A combination of layers have staked £1.4m to win just £14k on Sri Lanka winning. Sri Lanka have gone from having a 1% of winning to having an 80% chance at the price they are currently.

    Theyre 1/6 now. Madness

    I think that we can say that Curran has bought his two wickets given he's gone for 103 runs in 9 overs

    I blame Brook. Fancy getting out on the last ball & not scoring any runs. Another 6 runs & we might have done it :smile:

    In these two games Cox's keeping hasn't been up to it at times.

    Sri Lanka hit 1.04 (1/25) themselves and are, going into the final over, 1.16 (1/6)

    Whilst I am not a neutral you have to say that was a fantastic game of cricket. Well played Sri Lanka

    What an amazing game. Fair play to Sri Lanka. But our bowling was poor to say the least.

    Agreed .  But play someone than actually bowl or bat other than Curran

    He was awful. England bowled lots of hit me balls. There just didn’t seem to be any thought involved.

    Not his fault but he’s been liability both games

    Atkinson and Tongue having 4 overs left between them when Curran was going at 10+ an over has cost us the game.

    I like Curran normally but was having an off day and might not be properly match fit given his injury,  so carrying on chucking him the ball was so daft.
