The winner of tomorrow's game gets to stay in Colombo for the semi, other teams have to travel.

Likewise the winner of the Colombo semi then gets more travel time ahead of the final.

I suppose its a consequence of having a tournament played over such a vast area?.....Not quite understood the need to have 3 separate hosts to be honest??

England win toss and will bat.

Eng 20/0 (6 overs)

Strauss gone for 6 from 20 balls, not at the races today I'm afraid.

Eng 29/1 (8)

Bell gone now, England have no idea how to play this bowling.

Eng 31/2 (9)

Strauss never really got in but Bell looked to be going nicely, spanner in the works him getting out. We need another big innings from Trott now.

Would kill for 250. Will maim for 240. Will settle for 220. This ain't a high-scoring wicket.

229-6

Certainly puts us in with a chance but I would have liked 20 more.

It's not a bad score, SL didn't help their cause with the dropped catches and not reviewing a clear LBW on Morgan which could have stopped our momentum dead.

Discipline with the ball and in the field needed from England now.

In hindsight make that 120 more.
