Typically and historically, SL have produced far better batsmen than bowlers (apart from a handful of obvious exceptions). This team is a throwback to those bygone days. They have a very ordinary bowling attack and my money is on a draw.
End of day two
Lankans 397 all out
Bangles 76 for no wicket.
Don't confuse your current path with your final destination. Just because it's dark and stormy now doesn't meant that you aren't headed for glorious sunshine!

Sadly for SL I was spot on with my prediction about their shit bowling attack with the Bangles currently on 161 for no wicket. Bangles on top.

The opening p'ship realised 162 runs.
Quick wickets since then have diluted that effort, somewhat.
3/203. Mahmudul Hasan Joy scored 58. Tamim Iqbal is 128*, Kasun Rajitha 2/13.

He needs another 19 to reach 5000 test runs.
He'll come in when a wicket falls apparently.

Iqbal was suffering cramps. Will bat at the fall of the next wicket.
... which may be a while. Mushfiqur & Das both look set for centuries.

Das went for 88 and Iqbal went next ball (first two balls after Lunch). Sorry, guys.
