Hard to believe that Sri Lanka are the 6th highest rated test side in the world. Not much depth of quality in the test arena these days.

Aus & Ind >>>>>>>>>>>>S Africa, NZ, Pommies >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Pakistan>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> West Indies & Sri Lanka

 

[gokangas]

What a dreadful review.

 

[Roostorm]

Three down for 31…this could get very ugly….as another one just falls short.

Going by the test rankings? Would have thought maybe Bangladesh or Afghanistan also come into consideration
West Indies won against us not long ago, Sri Lanka beat Eng in England in august

I reckon Alana King bowling a few over's to some of our men wouldn't be a walk in the park for most of 'em

Alexandra Hartley in the commentary box says the good news is that the English team can't get any worse. She went on to say that the team is beginning to professionalise and offer full time paid careers.

Very good of the ladies to do that.
If only their men could follow suit.

... i may have misread what they put on cricinfo

They said 20k on the previous day. Hearts to hearts was there and maybe could give an estimate.

The thing is, that might be the number of people who passed through the gates. Not all of them might have been in the stands at the same time and I didn't see any video where the camera did a full pan around the ground showing the people in the crowd so estimates from watching on TV are unreliable.
