00:00You
00:12That will go to that sweeper who's on square the outfield was slow yesterday
00:18With the rain is even slower and that will just dampen that ball as well
00:30I
00:35Think that's higher old Trafford given no, it's given they're gonna have to check the height of that surely the bounce old Trafford
00:43He's not the tallest bowler
00:46Original decision is out ball pitching outside of the impact is in line and wickets missing
00:52Yeah
00:54Yeah, old Trafford you have to be that fraction fuller because of the bounce on this ground and that bounce saved Dan Lawrence
01:04Now that's close that's close
01:09Was it just sneaking down the leg side now Sri Lanka could review
01:14Yeah, that did look a lot closer that wasn't going over
01:21That's short that's wide that is exactly what Pope wants
01:29Straight enough the nip back up and I see to Fernando has to
01:34In the gap, there's two slips and a fine gully just done that he lets it go
01:43Terrific from Dan Lawrence
01:46Pretty quiet this morning. The Sri Lanka have generally set up a good game
01:51They've got a good game. They've got a good game
01:53They've got a good game. They've got a good game. They've got a good game
01:57They've got a good game. They've got a good game. They've got a good game
02:00Pretty quiet this morning. The Sri Lanka have generally set quite defensive field
02:08Short ball again and Lawrence goes for it again with the same result behind square this time
02:20Good example of why
02:31There is the outside edge and the threat on the angle from Vishwa Fernando a change of end works for him
02:45Lovely
02:46From Joe roots who was given an opportunity there a foolish ball
02:50It was just angling into his pads and he worked that wide of mid on
02:57Lovely straight back from Harry Brooke
03:00As this is one those wrists break late into the ball to provide some power a terrific effort to
03:11Lovely shot made a really sweet noise off the bat such was the timing there was absolutely nothing
03:22That again probably even better at the head position perfect the timing perfect such a straight blade from Joe route
03:30Third four of the over perhaps. This is wrong
03:35That is fantastic
03:39So so simple from Harry Brooke
03:42It's just that little whip of the bottom hand that comes in last minute to provide the power that is picture-perfect
03:51Lovely
03:55It's a bit slow because of the rain might run for here
04:01Oh
04:02He's nicked him off. It was the one that stayed out there route played for a delivery that he thought was coming back in
04:09He's just hanging around to make sure that that has carried through to the keeper
04:14I think it did Chandamal is pretty certain that it has
04:21Went big went for gold first ball with that reverse swing
04:26Smith was equal to it. Yes Chandamal behind the stumps
04:31Got straight the bowler lost patience and Brooke gleefully pounced on that punched it down the ground before
04:44Lovely really lovely straight drive some of the driving today from Harry Brooke has been exceptional
04:54As a result Jamie Smith can just do that
04:58It'll skip down the pitch and bunts it into the crowd
05:05Another good drive from Brooke
05:11You won't go for four but a three will bring Harry Brooke another test match 50
05:17This has been a very good one
05:19He's looked in fine fettles
05:28Sloppy
05:34Beats extra cover this time
05:40Hits the ball really hard Jamie Smith
05:46Always finally turned one off the deck and produced a beauty
05:50It needs a good one to get rid of Harry Brooke and
05:54Prabhat Jaya Saree who hasn't really turned one off the straight all day has suddenly found one
06:05Now that's beaten everything beat the inside edge beat the off stump it's beaten Dinesh Chandamal four buys
06:10They play such attacking cricket
06:17On his head, but again, the line has not been very good
06:26Well two back-to-back boundaries behind the wicket one to the on one to the off
06:36Well, that's a gorgeous shot from Chris Wokes
06:41The boundary scoring opportunities have been offered of late
06:48You're watching in Liverpool is it raining in Liverpool
06:52Jamie Smith goes through to 50 with a simple single
06:56And he has taken to test match cricket like a duck to water very impressive again very controlled
07:06But it leaves the gap
07:09And that boundary takes England into the lead
07:18There we go absolutely zero turn Nasser Hussain pitch middle hit the top of off
07:24cover tater's curse
07:27That's two. He's got to turn
07:29From Chris Wokes as he walked off
07:32that control line
07:35And that's two Jaffas
07:38I
07:41Like that
07:44Right on cue just a little too short certainly wasn't an attempted bouncer
07:55And again, he's been peppered Chandamal today, but he's done well
08:03259 for six
08:08You
