Watching the Australians play in Sri Lanka and it genuinely feels much more civilised. Everyone bowling spin trying to bamboozle the batters rather than trying to kill them by bowling as fast as you can. Much more cerebral. Very nice. #slvaus - ThreadSky

Feels like Sri Lanka could be a bit more attacking

maccam88.bsky.social•33 days ago

agreed this is a danger partnership with no sign of being troubled

Maybe try a bat pad as well as the short leg at the same time.

I agree. It is very civilised. And very nice. Very very nice. Attempted murder by pace is also good though

Pip pip cheerio. I'm American and have no idea what you are all saying. But it sounds like you're enjoying the match, so good on ya, mate!

Bowling spin against Sri Lanka?
That is brave!
That is how those boys grow up, by learning to play spin!

After watching the T20 it was jarringly relaxed.

Civilised maybe but I’m missing Muralitharan.

Sri lankans generally make everything better - food, cricket, love - everything.

Massive fan of if you're listening btw
