Craig HillAs the rain subsides in Brisbane, Aussies turn up the heat on Sri Lanka
November 12th 2007 01:48
The Sri Lankans had a brief respite from the Aussie war machine today, with the heavy rain in Brisbane forcing the umpires to chase the teams back into the locker rooms.
Sri Lanka was trailing by 81 runs at that moment, and were probably glad to have a break from the shellacking. The twisted Gods of cricket leered their cruelest grin at the dark rain clouds, dissipating and blowing them back over the ocean, allowing the teams to get back on the field.
Read the ABC post!:
If the Sri Lankans want to come away with any positive memories, they'll have their work cut out for them... the Sri Lankans, "who resumed this morning at 5 for 218, were struggling to make up ground after posting a paltry first-innings score of 211 in response to Australia's colossal total of 4 for 551 (declared)."
How long before Ponting and the boys take their victory? Minutes?

"But the umpires allowed play to re-commence after the rain subsided with Sri Lanka reeling at 7 for 259 in their second innings.
Chamara Silva was not out on 27 with Chaminda Vaas yet to score."

Perhaps they should give Gilly a bowl in the 2nd test?
