    They are not 'going together', cricket is a game and doesn't include genocide.

    Yes, Sri Lanka should refuse to play against us...

    Good to see some form from the batsman - apart from Bell. Good warm up for the 1st test on Monday. Why can’t they schedule games to get some weekend play?

    Genocide and cricket go well together.

    Zimbabwe. South Africa. Pakistan.

    You know it makes sense.

    Well that's that!

    Dot, Four, Six, Four from Swann and it's victory, handshakes all round, and back to the pavilion for well-earned refreshment.

    Indeed, both got centuries in the first innings and are resting on their laurels to give the others a bat.

    The hard work is done. 13 needed off 24 balls, Swann and Broad at the crease.

    Well, it's down to 47 runs needed off 7 overs, with Broad and Fat Sami at the crease. It's been a well-managed run chase so far. I'm on tenterhooks!

    Cracking match in Sri Lanka

    The lunchtime declaration set England 359 off only 64 overs, and they are making a good fist of it.

    They need another 136 from 24 overs, with 7 wickets left. Prior and Fat Sami are at the crease, leading the chase.

    A very exciting for cricket lovers!
