    Sensational belief from England there.

    Apparently only 19 people turned up to get in this morning it was that much of a damp squib.

    Astonishing self-belief and mental strength and a severe lack of it from Sri Lanka.

    To be fair it rained all morning and may have rained all day, that said none of the five days was well attended.

    ISawLeaburnScore, Talking of betting, I can't help thinking that the anti-corruption folks will be taking a close look at this one...... 

    I must have got all cynical in my old age when an England victory of this nature makes me think that like!!

    At as much as 1/20 overnight after 4 days I'd say taking it at 5/6 on Day 1 was looking shrewd... and then Day 5 happened!

    ...oops indeed! glad I didn't take it.

    Perfect illustration of why gambling will always be a mugs game.
