Cricket: Australia has made light work of Scotland in the second of three T20 matches.
Aussie heroics seal Scottish slaughter | 02:44 Sri Lanka captain Dhananjaya de Silva and the in-form Kamindu Mendis frustrated England with an unbroken century partnership on the second day of the third Test at The Oval on Saturday.
It was a fine end to the day for Sri Lanka, who took seven wickets before lunch on Saturday to wrap up England’s innings. Sri Lanka scored 69 runs without loss in 17 overs of all spin bowling after tea on Saturday, with England deciding against deploying their pacemen in case the umpires halted play for bad light even earlier than they eventually did. Seamer Chris Woakes was forced to bowl four deliveries of spin to complete an over due to bad light.“This is a bad look for Test cricket,” he said.
“That’s living in England and playing cricket in England, they’re the conditions. It’s very easy to sit there as a supporter and want to see more cricket but if it does get really dark and more dangerous, we’re the ones out there playing.”
