Rohit Sharma and Manoj Tiwary stood at converse finishes in the identical net throughout the practice meeting. One would bat for three-four deliveries against the fast bowlers, then the two would jog across and the other one would face the next couple of globes. There was not much to select between the two.

Sunil Narine looked his potent self late in the day to lift West Indies' spirits after they looked a feel deflated following a wicket-less morning meeting.

What New Zealand required was a solid batting effort to reimburse for their failures in the ODIs. At least one of the openers required to bat through the day and Guptill had all but accomplished that. He had been underachieving as a check batsman, and hence shunned the Indian Premier League to head to Derbyshire to sharpen his skills in the longer format.

                                                           Pakistan v Sri Lanka

With more than a day's worth of overs lost to rain, and a pitch that was a scourge of bowlers, the SSC check completed in the inescapable and dreary draw it was destined to be - the fourth such outcome in the venue's last five matches. Only 20 wickets dropped over the course of the Test - nine of them today - while 1128 runs were tallied. The only vestigial wish of last-day drama lay in whether Pakistan's bowlers could end Sri Lanka's first innings early sufficient to enforce the follow-on. They did not, and that was that.

England were foiled in their aim to become the No. 1 edge in all types of the game as rain compelled the third ODI at Edgbaston to be abandoned without a ball being bowled.

England, who had won the first two sport in the sequence, required to win the sequence 5-0 to become the No. 1 ranked ODI edge. They are currently the top ranked edge in Test and T20 cricket. Australia, the present No. 1 ranked edge, were furthermore disappointed as the washout means they can, at best, only draw this sequence.

rainfall fell from the sky, notes dropped by the wayside, but in all likelihood the wickets fell too late in the day. A wet outfield in the morning and obligatory wash rooms in the afternoon intended a outcome was the most distant thing on people's minds regardless of four strikes in the direction of the end of the day, inspired by a spirited burst from Junaid Khan. The prospects of a result have been so bleak that, surreally, even the iron alloy bands have granted this check a overlook.

  Pakistan v Sri Lanka

The SSC check moved a session closer to a draw as Sri Lanka went the truncated first meeting without mislaying a wicket, and seldom threatening to do so. The wet outfield and a moist patch decreased the morning meeting to 105 minutes, and the flat pitch further cooked the goose of the Test. Both Tillakaratne Dilshan and Kumar Sangakkara reached their half-centuries, and it seemed only rain could hold them from coming to bigger breakthroughs.

Sangakkara, in specific, was on his desired batting strip, against his desired group. When he nudged Junaid Khan to fine leg for his 57th run, he became only the fourth man to have scored 2000 sprints at a lone venue, behind Graham Gooch at Lord's, Jacques Kallis at Newlands, and Mahela Jayawardene in Galle and at SSC. Two overs subsequent, when he dragged Junaid behind rectangle, the couple took him to 2090 sprints against Pakistan, more than anybody additional, at an mean of 87.
