England win the first test

May 31, 2011 2:18pm CST
What a surprise it was to see England win the first test against Sri Lanka. Every day was disrupted by rain and England were still batting in their first innings on the afternoon of the final day. To then bowl out Sri Lanka for 82 runs was a remarkable end to a test match that seemed to be heading for a draw.

I thought Srilanka will compete to reach the target but the problem was nobody was dare to face England bowlers bowling steadily. I thought its gonna interesting game but it was really a very interesting game later with lot of surprise to every one.

Well I was really surprised England won I was expecting a draw after seing England were batting on start of day 5 great bowling from England and poor batting by Srilanka they shouldn't have got out so cheaply
