England's squad is the same as the last test,so i think it'll be the same team with maybe Lewis coming in ahead of Plunkett.Looks like the big problem [aside from our crap fielding :roll: ] is going to be the good old fashioned English weather,its not a great forecast for Birmingham for the next few days The Sri Lankan team could be interesting,they've brought Malinga into the squad,he bowls with a awkward sling-arm action from almost in front of the umpire, apparently

Bad luck mate,i have a bad feeling its going to be one of those on/off tests  Still its on Sky,so they should play some ace cricket to replace it  unlike Channel four who'd show some old film and a load of horse racing.
