48-0 Sri Lanka. I think we need to just move on from this match and just re asses. A few changes need to be made in this batting line up in my opinion.

I mean changes in the order. The same batters, just in different positions in my opinion. Like Ervine at 3, Lamb at 4, Chiggs at 5 and Chappie at 6 perhaps...

Both Lamb and Utsea are just getting tonked. Perhaps have a look at Graeme Cremer...

Where's Chigumburas pace gone ?? He used to bowl 83-85mph a couple of years ago. Where's that disappeared to ??

119 for one, Sri Lanka win by 9 wickets. Very upsetting. We’ve played Dilshan back into form. Rohit Sharma is going to be a bigger challenge. Irresponsible innings from Chappy and Elton Chigumbura.

Disappointing display

I don't think we need to panic yet as we were all pretty positive after the first match. Its just a shame we can't play more consistently.
