Cricket

Excellent century off 100 balls.

Youngest Englishman to get a World Cup ton.

Huge six from Jimmy Taylor.

Go ed Joey lad.

What an over this has been.

6 (Taylor)
1 (Taylor)
4 (Root)
6 (Root)
4 (Root)
4 (Root)

Root's strike rate for the last 10 balls, 340.

 Root is carving it up just as I slate his ability for the big hits   

Knowing the way Sri Lanka can go, I wouldn't be surprised if we have left this slog to too late,

Taylor gone for 25.

Buttler in now. Need him to produce his best.

What a F***ing bouncer.

Great opening ball from Malinga to Buttler.

Jos responds with a hook for four.

What a f**king bouncer.

Great opening ball from Malinga to Buttler.

You mean the slinger   

Root gone, LBW to Herath.

Failed review.

Oh dear that's probably England hopes for a victory gone.

We really are crying out for a Finch/Mcullam

Buttler hitting the boundary with some regularity here.

16 off 8.

Awful from Woakes

Herath just took one full whack from Buttler.

F**k me that hurt.

 

300 up.

Great cameo knock this from Buttler.

Lakmal just launched a second one waist height (more like head height) so he's been told to F**k off.

Shame really because he's been sh*te. Would of rather he bowled the last two deliveries.

Instead Dilshan is going to.

Take them to the F***ing cleaners Jos lad.

I think the Lankans will chase  down easily so I'm off to bed, hopefully I'm wrong Dunlop.

39 off 19 for Buttler to wrap up the innings.

309-6.

Over to the bowlers now. You've got something to defend, go and F***ing do it.

I'm in work in 4 hours.

Should get home in time for the Liverpool game though (only on a 6 hour shift) but unfortunately I will miss the run chase of this match. Pity really cos it's not too often I see England win a one day game.

Well, there you go.
