Quote from: tomd2103 on January 25, 2021, 01:01:03 PMExcellent win and a good series win as well. The negativity in the media astounds me sometimes though. After spending the last few days telling everyone how hard it is going to be to win, now that they have the lines of Vaughan and Tufnel saying on the BBC that Sri Lanka are really poor and there is going to have to be massive improvement in India Both might be the case, but is it really needed after the series has just been wrapped up.As they were saying in the sky commentary that's 5 away test in a row now, it's bene over a century since England last did that, I'm not sure there's any need for negativity around the team right now.

In the SL 1st innings, England took all 10 wickets with seamIn the SL 2nd innings, England took all 10 wickets with spinI wonder if they've ever done that before ?

Yes, Sri Lanka are nowhere near as strong as they have been in past years and of course India will be a much tougher test, but why start bringing that up straight after a very good test and series win?
Vaughan has a tendency to either make up words or use the wrong words in the context of what he’s trying to say. I wouldn’t mind normally, but I get the impression he thinks he’s quite bright.
Looks like the India series is not going to be on sky or BT and is rumoured to be a fight between Amazon and Disney - which presumably means more to pay out to watch. Anyone know any more ?
Which TV channel and live stream can I watch it on?To watch England play in the UK, you'll need to have Sky Sports Cricket.Sky have exclusive rights to show every ball of England's matches in 2021.
