History tells me our spinners will fall into the non threatening non turning category.
Patel got a 5-wkt haul in the only pre-test tour game and they did well against Pakistan in the UAE. If the English spinners can bowl them to victory in Sri Lanka there is no reason ours can't be effective too.

We need a couple of early wickets while the ball is still new
innovative tactic!

Patel is continuing to impress. Chucks it up and gets great drift - watch his lbw for that. Somerville looks limited and struggles to bowl 6 good ones. Santner's a fine limited overs bowler.
Broke a dangerous partnership on tea but need to get Matthews, one of world cricket's unsung guns.
At tea we lead by 106 runs, they're 3 down
Monsoon season will probably have the final say

By God the castle, brick thing in the background makes this venue one of the best around. Outstanding.
Looks to be the cheap seats too.
Initially I thought the people up there were tourists but most seem to be locals as they don't move.
