West Indies v Sri Lanka, 2nd Test, Gros Inlet, 14-18 June, 2018

Well?

West Indies should make one change.

Aye. It would be good to have 12 months without a Smith, Jones, Rabada, Du Flexible or Stokes. Add ecoli and Pig Stokes and cricket could be on the up.

Looks a good first day for the Ganjas.

A ton to Chandimal, but otherwise honours to WI

******* CONTROVERSY *********

The Sri Lankans have been charged with altering the condition of the ball yesterday & 5 penalty runs given to the Windies.





Sri Lanka protesting the decision.

Play yet to begin today & now Sri Lanka are walking off the field.

Are they are doing an Inzy?

Play finally starts.

Bit of friction!

44.5
Kumara to Smith, no run, another short ball, Smith gets under it. Dickwella jumps and does well to gather it. Smith walks out for some gardening and Dickwella flings it towards the stumps and then appeals. Gould has a chat with him and rules the ball to have been dead by the time Smith strode out

44.6
Now Smith pulls out at the last moment, right before Kumara is about to deliver the ball. Aleem Dar tells him off. All sorts of things happening here.

I see the Lankans are being petulant little qunts again.

Fat Arjuna running the roost in the Wankan hen house again?

So just about all square then.

Pretty much. The Ref match report will make for interesting reading.

Life was so much easier for Sri Lanka when the ICC just allowed them to chuck 

I'm sure one of their fielders has a birth defect that causes his fingernails to grow into sharp points and an accompanying nervous twitch that causes him to scratch one side of the ball

hehehe ... The Wankans are an embarrassment.

Where's an RPG when you need it. Seriously the wankans have got they're priorities seriously farked up.

Lankan tail wagged well.

Shannon Gabriel - 5/59 & 8/62

He is certainly the spearhead of the Windies attack these days.

Rain could just be the winner here … sadly!

Bad light finishes it. WI go to Barbados 1-0.

Hopefully Chandimal will be banned for at least one Test.

so how much time did SL lose from the protest which cost them in the end?

So it petered in the end. Shame.

A one Test suspension for Chandimal

Surely he'll protest that after discovering he is diabetic  ...

Now now you can't say that

Chandimal appealing the ban 

FFS ICC dont cave on this
