This is not going well for SL, but there is a bigger picture:
"The game is uniquely qualified to speak to Sri Lanka in harrowing times, because there is no pursuit that cuts through race, religion, caste and class in the country quite as comprehensively. Resoundingly popular in the north - where cricket survived the deprivations of the decades-long civil war - as it is in the wild south-east, or up in the tea-growing hills, it is at once a sport beloved by the working- and middle classes, as it is controlled by elites. Once a weapon used by British to subjugate and divide ..., cricket has in modern times become a showcase of a unified Sri Lanka..."
It's early days, but we have half the makings of a good WC: low scores from one side. If we can get consistently low scores from both sides, that would be great.
And Cummins only has the one wicket, as well from his first three deliveries. That's probably because the first was a no ball and the second was hit straight up in the air for a catch from the free hit. Anyway, with a bit of luck, they'll steady the ship and make it to the end of Cummins' over without further mishaps.
