20 points per run out, or 10 points each, if two players share the responsibility

+30 for a hat trick

Geez, I have no idea for this one. I don't have faith in any of the England team in the subcontinent, but with Herath going I have no idea who is going to perform for Sri Lanka either.

Thanks for running Andy.

I'l kick things off then
