Don’t think it’s unpopular. Horses for courses and know your opponent. They’ll prepare a wicket to suit them and it won’t be for the benefit of Broad and Anderson.

Brilliant from India

Decent performance from their second XI that.

Astonishing series win - what a talented team they've got.

Would rather have Jos opening and trying to smash the ball out of the ground than seeing Jennings in an England shirt.

I could empty my bladder into an active volcano and it still couldn't boil my piss as much as that sentence.

not doing a disappearing act over it. Pretty ordinary from us but hats off, great effort from India. Proper Test cricket

Sri Lanka are 123-3

Jimmy with all 3 wickets

The track looks a bit of a road.

when you have someone who can play spin and just manoeuvres the ball around looks like a different game

Wood gets Chandimal, his first wicket of the series.

193-4

Wood was described as the Leeds United of the England Cricket team by someone on the BBC online coverage earlier..
