Good recovery from 12-2.

According to the Radio Times, the game next Wednesday is on the sci fi channel, Quest on freeview.

Timely pair of wickets for Zampa. Aussies on top now.

SL posted 288...should be challenging.

The spinners weaved a web around Henriques...five down.

Wade gets his half-century....
:clap
Thishara gets his third wicket...Wade out for 76. All over now, surely....

Amila Aponso has had a hell of a an August.

He was plucked from the Sri Lanka Development Emerging Team where he had a decent time against the South African Emerging Players XI and has hit the ground running.
