UPSET FOR ENGLAND
That game forced me to write as this World Cup favorite team played below average against a team like Srilanka.
After a calm and slow batting of Mathews which extends their totals to 232,everyone is blaming Mathews for slow strike rate.
But who knows those runs are as precious as a diamond, those runs are more enough for them to win.
Srilanka's most experienced bowler Malinga gave them a perfect start with that Bairstow's wicket.
And later on every bowler follows the same path, maintains the line and length. Though Ben stokes stood their but it's a team sport, and they deserve to win that day.
Atleast Srilanka kept them alive and we needed those fights.
