It's Day 3 of the Leeds Test, possibly the last day of this Test, going by the way the visitors batted yesterday. Truth be told, they just came up against an unbelievably bowling pair at the peak of its prowess. Broad and Anderson don't really need cloud cover to trouble visiting batsmen but when given an opportunity to bowl in such conditions, they weren't going to say no. The duo took 9 wickets amongst themselves to bowl Sri Lanka out for 91. Alastair Cook has enforced the follow on. Sri Lanka trail by over 200 runs and if the conditions are anything like they were last evening, they are in for another severe examination.

Here's hoping for an improved showing from Sri Lanka. Welcome to Day 3.
A persistent drizzle delays the start of play in Leeds. Conditions are clearing up now and we should have play in just over 10 minutes. New ball, overcast morning - could it get any better for Broad and Anderson?
Chilly morning, four slips and a gully and Anderson with the new ball. Dimuth Karunaratne did not much wrong there. Perhaps, as Michael Atherton reckoned on air, he could left it on the bounce. But this ball snakes out from leg stump to kiss the outside on its way to the keeper. Early strike for England. In walks Kusal Mendis. How they would've loved Kumar Sangakkara to come in at No. 3. Sigh....
