The stadium was pretty empty, as far as I could see.

It's a damned shambles and I'd be more upset if it wasn't for the thought of that Hong Kong gambling syndicate sending me that cheque.

Sri Lanka heading for a healthy first innings lead by the looks of it.

England now all out for 193, a deficit of 125. Not even Anderson and Panesar could rescue England's innings.

Gambling syndicates will be happy, maybe.

England reduce Sri Lanka to 84/5 at close, but that means Sri Lanka are effectively 209/5. Typical England, always giving their fans false hope.

Skittle them for under a 250-270 lead, maybe less than 300 and could be do-able, though pitch will start to wear...

I will run naked across my own living room (with the curtains closed) if England win.

Patel gone. Game over? I think just a bit too much left for England to do.
