My cat's always a noisy little bastard at around 4 in the morning, so I've happily used it as a tactical alarm for the beginning of the test match.

3 overs played in half an hour due to delays in an empty ground because of a dodgy sight screen.

Test cricket. Please don't ever change...

Well I have watched a few balls and I can tell this is going to be hard work

This looks very attritional, you need to bat a long time (if possible) and soften that ball up before really cashing in

Alcohol is the answer but I can't remember the question!

Can now confirm that they are all Intermediate Egrets not Little Egrets.

Little Egrets have yellow feet and a black bill, Intermediate Egrets have a yellow bill and black feet.

Sri Lanka not having much luck here. If England get to the end with only two wickets down there'll be in a brilliant position.

They're being very careful with Pope's shoulder. He's on the tour but won't be risked until India leg apparently. Scored runs in the warm up game.

Well that's a very successful day from England, Sri Lanka aren't the side they were but it looks like a pitch where one poor session can kill you, so you really need to be vigilant. It's proper attritional cricket and a good learning curve for the side, none the less.

Yes, if England get a good first innings score - and Jayawardene thought 250 would be that - then they are in a very good position.

Lots of errors from Sri Lanka today, a bit like the start of last Summer in England there's probably a lot of rustiness with anything other than T20.

And more importantly, it's made a wet, cold January morning much more enjoyable (even if I had to turn it off to do some work after SL all out).

Yeah very good day for England.

Nice to start a series well, for once.

Really hope Root goes on & gets a hundred tomorrow & get a big year for him, both as captain & batsman, off to a flyer.

Evans out
