Why are we always the dipshits that choose to bowl?
Four straight tests have been won by the team bowling first at the basin. The pitch will flatten out but unlikely to take spin so any fourth innings target won't be tricky.
Bangladesh scored 500 batting first here last summer and we still ran them down.

Was a good choice at 9 for 3.

Timmy wraps up the SL innings for 282 with his 6th wicket.
Good chance here for our openers to find some form.
I’ll be disappointed with anything less than 350.This pitch has become docile and will be so at least until day 4. I would be unhappy with anything less than 500.
Batting for 2 days should be the aim here.

Raval trying to throw his wicket away
He tends to do that after making a start. I'm happy enough with him because he is fairly consistent at blunting the new ball, but in order to be a great player he needs to start converting these starts into hundreds.

Williamson seeing it like a beach ball.
His first one was a thick outside edge along the ground for 4, but the next two balls, wow just spanked with perfect timing through the offside.
Kane 13 off 4,
Latham 15 off 74
Cricket is a funny old game sometimes. -

192/1.
Williamson on 75 and still below his average in the last 5 tests against SL.
Kane averaging (AVERAGING!) 100+ v Sri Lanka!
Career average currently sitting on 52.26.....
Simply outstanding. God bless this man.
