No I can't. I've got a 20 stone bloke sitting on my chest.

Brilliant first ball ny Swann.

First over goes for one run. Doesn't look that bad tbh.

Economically the best OD English spinner over the last 5 years.

Not a fan of his personality, but whenever I have seen him play he has always looked decidely useful if not actually pretty good with the ball and can hit the ball as well. Never understood why he hasn't had a look in before.

Swann notwithstanding, this is a slow pitch which is getting slowwer. The Lankans are finding it difficult to score on. As we will be chasing I think I can safely say we are FARKED!!!!

See Swanny just stopped a run out by knocking the bails off with his hand.

Couple of spinners would've been good?

KP and Shah?

Farkin Cnut. Should never have had a look in to the team.

WTF are you on about? He did us a favour. Sanga's got 18 off 42 balls, he's saved us 10 runs so far!

Nice fielding there by Jimmy.
