Lankan bowlers hv made No. 8 batter 'Atkinson' look like Bradman.  He might set his career best score of 150 or 200 today.  LOL

By the end of this series, Atkinson might hv a higher batting avg than J Root.   All this talk about J Root being GOAT will disappear.

Agree

 

In the last decade or so:

SL hv won a test series in SA in 2019.  That is something which no other asian team has been able to achieve.

SL also won a test series in Eng in 2014.

 

Pooks hv nothing to show for.   Be it in SENA or in their own backyard.

No.8 batsman Atkinson batting on 103(not out).

This is what happens when you don’t have any bowlers. SL only chance to get wickets is batsmen getting themselves out.

By replacing Jimmy Anderson with Gus Atkinson, they found a good bowler who is also a better batsman.

Better ?  dude smashed a nonchalant 100

Atkinson joins the company Sir Aggy.  Lower order century at Lords.

It is always fun to listen to Broad talking about "burning reviews" lol

[putrevus]

Why would you make your keeper open the innings after he has kept for 120 plus overs.
