4th ODI vs SL
Team News: No changes for us. Sangakkara returns in place of Maneshan.
We won the toss and batted.
Joe Root fell early to Jayampathi which brought the out of form KP to the crease, now was his time to shine! His responsibility was emphasized further as Cook also fell early. However he couldn't make his start count as we fell even deeper into trouble. Thankfully a partnership of 110 between Taylor and Bopara put us back into the game. We were going to struggle to keep them down, early wickets needed!
As i predicted we struggled, Thirimanne led the way and despite heavy pressure from Anderson, they chased our score with ease, we need to win this series!

Batting Award | James Taylor. Gave us a fighting chance. |
Bowling Award | James Anderson. Went for less than 3 an over which was great considering the situation. |
Series State | 2-2 draw with 1 to play, it's going to be a tough last game. |
