    Englands Summer of Cricket v Sri Lanka & Pakistan

    Sri Lanka win the toss and choose to bowl.

    Bit of apathy towards this test, but I think its only because its the first game since the T20 WC.

    Looking forward to a few tests to wallow in for a bit

    England: Cook, Hales, Compton, Root, Vince, Stokes, Bairstow (wk), Ali, Broad, Finn and Anderson
    *Except Michael, who died.

          Quality from England. 83-5 with Alex Hales holding the innings together at the moment.

              Bairstow cracking on after being dropped earlier today.

                He said the other week that his overriding International test goal was to score a ton at his home ground. I really hope he sticks with this

                            The 'One day' test match is surely not too far away?

                              If batsmen don't sharpen up their technique and start applying themselves, I fear you might be close to being right. Although 3 completed innings in a day is a tall order

                              Sri Lanka's batmen look under-prepared for this. I think it's a sign of test crickets lowered importance for them.
