August 4, 2011
England Lions 299 182 for three (Racine 66) lead Sri Lanka A 389 (Silva 89, Rajapaksa 76) by 92 runs
An alliance of combat extended tail to bring Sri Lanka by 90 am, but the opening of a stand of 98 runs and made a half century of England Joe Racine Lions open the hosts lost 92 at stumps on third day in Scarborough. The Lions lost three rings before the closing - including a quirky Ravi Bopara for a 21-ball 25 - but came to a position of reasonable safety at 182 for 3.
Sea lions Stuart Meaker, James Harris and Jade Dernbach finally finished with three wickets as Sri Lanka, the game was launched for the 389, but not before a stubborn 61-term partnership between 9 and 10, and Kanishka Senanayake Sachithra Alvitigala Sri Lanka had extended the first inning advantage, having started the day at 329 for 8
Root and the other open door Alex Hales lively response to the Lions, as well as men can ping multiple crossings of the Hales, and eventually falling 69-ball 42 that included five four six. Fell to offspinner Senanayake, who has helped five wickets lions first inning and ended with two more Third Day, Bopara his second scalp.
At the root of time had brought 95-ball fifty, but immediately after Bopara, who was thrown out of the blocks cracked five fours in his shirt, was rejected, was defeated by offspinner Racine Sachithra Serasinghe and Sri Lanka had found an entrance into the order of the half with the score 143 for three.
Lions captain, wicketkeeper Craig Kieswetter James Taylor, and remained strong until the end, however, adding an unbroken 39 before stumps.
"I'm happy with how I played today, overall I think it was a good day for us," said Root. "I was disappointed as I left, but we have to come back tomorrow and play with courage from the beginning, and our bowling attack, we still want to get results."
