He is good when he swings . Both deliveries were killer deliveries would have been for our own top order. Played a big role in that famous historic series win in South Africa. He took 12 wickets at 18.91 in that famous series.

 A lot of bowlers are good when it swings. Even Arshdeep 

 

When that swing goes, he's as bad as it gets.

Heartening to see SL and Bangladesh's come-up. Need some strong teams in world cricket. 

 

Would like to see more of Afghans too

Bazzball no more?

Arshdeep did play county. Looked mediocre even with swing.

Yep. DDS should bowl now and rotate the seamers. Their seamers might run out of gas otherwise especially with a slightly older ball.

 Yeppp zimbabur  would be batting at no.9 for england

Another one leg before. They are targetting frontpad with  seam up and swinging deliveries.

Akash deep should be backed for next  England tour. He will be quiet handful on surfaces like this.

[vvvslaxman]

135 k bowlers with accuracy is more deadly than express bowlers in England due to their control which is important here. In Australia you need a bit of pace.

Nithish Reddy bowls very similar lines, speeds and lengths to Milan.

nitish reddy not ready for test cricket

SL need to get Eng all out within 100 if they want to chase this. 

[vvvslaxman]

RP singh was deadly in ENgland in one of the series.  It is always good to have a left arm seamer in your set up.

[vvvslaxman]

Punter in the commentary box. I am sure he will talk about IPL soon.

Jamie smith is playing a clutch knock once again.
