Sri Lanka v India, 2nd Test, P Sara Oval, 20-24 August, 2015

Sangakkara finally retires after this.

Dhawan out of the second test. Desperate times when India worry about not having him. Even more desperate times that Sturat Binny is being considered for the second test.

You'd probably take Binny over Harbhajan, though.....

A punch in the face over a kick in the balls

Could end up with Binny and Harbhajan...

That's like getting an Angry Dragon Monkey Tash

Anyone know where/how this test can be viewed from UK? Can't seem to see it on any of the main sports channels schedules.

Someone said something about a Sony channel over there?

The Asian channels on Sky/Virgin are showing it
Live on Sony ENtertainment - subscription
Highlights oon Sony SAB - free depending on package

Supersport 7

You have 7 channels dedicated to sports that are super?

10 I think.

Whenever any of us in Eng or Aus are having a whinge about bad team selection, especially in the allrounder position, just remember that India still seem keen to keep giving Stuart Binny test caps.

Unf*cking real.

He's India's natural successor to Prabhakar, and tests' successor to Ealham... Don't doubt his potential. Would rank Moeen in the role he's playing for England almost as bad as Binny's though.

Decent effort considering the start, will look good till Saha charges down to a spinner and misses by 3 feet to be stumped.

Good times.

I'm amazed at Ishant's inability to learn.

Have a heart man. You think it's easy being the ugliest f*king international cricketer on the planet?

Sanga not a decisive last innings.

Wish I could watch this here in Eng. At least 2 teams seem capable of playing a competitive test series. Looks like another cracking game.

Will be a monumental cock up to lose from here.... but it's not like they have lost from close to invincible positions in the past.

And well done to Sangakkara.

Farewell Sanga.

What a player, what a man. You have a feeling he's going to remain prominently involved in international cricket.

You'd have to hope so. Sadly, for every Sangakara, there are five Giles Clarkes.

Scientifically impossible. That would cause a qunt vacuum that would destroy the planet

and :--O


Sangakkara, a credit to the game. And a great void. Nth to do with Giles Clarke.

Giles Clarke is the Black Hole ...

Massive capitulation after Mathews' early dismissal. I'd like to be Sri Lankan now, got as much talent as Jehan Mubarak and will be a completely fresh name for them too...
