England 5 lost at 165 runs in 1st innings against Sri Lanka.At this time Sri Lanka seems to be in good position but this is just start.I have still serious doubts that Sri Lanka will be able to take any advantage of this situation.England still will make easily 240+ runs which are good for a team in great form.So no worries at this moment about the situation of match.

It is clearly visible that England has recovered the loss of early wickets.It is continuing now at 186 runs with same loss of 5 wickets.Sri Lanka lost chance of putting continuous pressure to pick couple of more wickets.All credit goes to England once again now they will not let any thing to not reach to some defend able total on the score board.

Jonny Bairstow is playing wonderful innings there and trying it very hard to post good total runs, Sri Lanka have to get breakthrough if they want to escape from white wash of the series but i think England now is in good position to save this match by good batting performance and it have very strong bowling attack.

Yes England needed a good partnership and they have got it . Bairstow playing an wonderful innings , he is in very good form . SL have to break baristow-ali partnership in order to get hold on this match . I think this match will end up being draw if SL play sensible cricket ( especially batting ). A few missed chances and bad luck for SL , i thought it was LBW ( bairstow ) but luck favored him.

This partnership going into very good direction and that is good sign for English team and i also think 300 runs would be nice achievement for 1st innings after quick disaster because it have wonderful bowling attacking which defend this match easily.

[buddu]

England managed to go out of the risky area as 210 runs at the moment.Actually this is partnership which will keep playing in rest of the time today.Now I can guess that at least 50 runs more will be added by the end of first day's play.Sri Lanka failed once again so England will have another easy win.

[shadobitz]

England has been just lost 6th wicket on 227 runs but now it is into very good position, i hope it will get succeed to make score around 300 runs by the end of day 1, Sri Lanka has problem with batting line and this would be nice for England to take it into trouble easily.

[victoryboy]

England has now stable position though 6th wicket is down now.This is score which is sufficient to fight for against a team which is weaker and can not perform at all.Sri Lanka has golden chance I do agree on that but they proved once again that they have turned into ordinary team now.

[Havelivi]

I also think England is now moving forward with comfort because Jonny Bairstow is still on the crease and he has ability to get it into more secure position with his responsible innings, another good partnership will be helpful for it put score 300 runs on the board and it looking possible at this stage.

Yes a very important innings by bairstow . England seemed to be falling down in first session , but they came back well in second and third . 300 + is looking easy right now , I think they should let bairstow play as much as he can .If he gets a good stand on other side , then even 350- 400 is also possible which can turn the match into England's side completely. 10 more overs remaining today , 234 on board .

In England vs Sri Lanka, 3rd Test Match, I am backing England. Last match was also won by this team and they are in pretty good form. They have relentless duo of James Anderson and Stuart Broad who are performing really well. The match will happen at Lord's cricket ground, London which has higher clay content and is expected to favour the batsmen.

What is so special about your decision ? Isn't it obvious England is winning this match ?The match is happening in their home ground.What more one could predict.England turned out to be one of the most lethal teams in T20 leaving Africa and Indian behind.Though its  a Test match ,I think its a easy lead.I'm not sure about the pitch type but should work in England's favor.

Have you lost your brain? It is cricket prediction thread, you can not predict anything extraordinary here. I just mentioned I am backing which team. Some decisions are obvious in certain cases. If you can predict anything special, why don't you try your hands on being astrologist? Use your brain and watch your words before writing anything.

As ever, we wont know what a decent total on this wicket will be until SL bat but they bowled pretty well today. Nicely poised!

[soyab0007]

Don't know why the square boundaries have been brought inside, saw this in 2nd test as well! Traditionally at Lords u would see advertising boards as straighter boundaries and ropes being kept at very end of square boundaries of those boards!

Are you talking about Aus vs SA match which took place on Jun 7? If yes. Then correct,  we all know WI pitch is not that good to score.  Unpredictable pitch and unpredictable series.  Looking forward to remaining matches.  I am sure many would have lost their bet on Jun 7.  That's why betting live is dangerous.

You could have backed in England vs Srilanka match on England when they were 84/4 at that time England odd was good to back as this match is also going to be won by England  and you can take draw as the safety as this match Srilanka won win they are going to get whitewashed in this test series.

England is back to the match because 304 are good one with nice bowling attack, today England will try to improve this total and will add some quick score into it, Jonny Bairstow and Chris Woakes playing very important at this stage and they will get around 400 runs before lunch break.

[trafficolaa]

Chris Woakes scored first fifty in test match cricket, he is helping a lot to build a wonderful partnership at this stage and i think so before lunch England will get succeed to cross the 400 runs milestone easily both batsmen are looking very set and playing comfortably into this match now.

[soyab0007]

but looking at how easily the pitch played when the seamers were bowling, it makes me wonder whether England can force a win with Moeen as the only spinner.
