My goodness. If I didn't have to write something about this, I'd say there are no words to describe the poor nature of this dismissal.
Just when England need to dog it out, Jonny Bairstow plays a terrible shot. Trying to shovel the ball through the leg side, it turns into an ugly hack to mid-on.
Poor. Really poor.

The game's changed quite a bit. With the new ball it was flying to all parts, the batters were hitting on the up. It was flying to all parts. But then "dangling the carrot" type balls from Matthews and all of a sudden the batters are struggling with their timing. I wonder if the ball has softened.
As we approach Halloween, this is a bit like watching a scary film. You know there are heart-stopping moments around the corner, you just don't know when they will come. Stokes pushes an uppish drive into the covers, just short of a diving fielder, then he plays and misses with a big drive at Mathews. Last week Mathews wasn't playing in this World Cup. He barely bowls these days. All of a sudden he's turned into Jimmy Anderson.

In the first 34 balls of this innings we had nine fours, and in the next 34 we had none at all.
At least we've avoided mother-in-law jokes. For now. I've lost count of the amount of replays and angles I've seen of that Root run out. It doesn't get any better. Rajitha comes back to bowl his pace and Bairstow is lucky that an under-edged pull hits his thigh rather than the stumps.

We got married in 2010 on a beach in Perth during the ashes. Had a home do in 2011. Here is Freddy being our seating planner and the table centres made by my wife (Alexandra). We had a table named cow corner and yes we put my stepmother on it.

It's the first time Angelo Matthews has bowled in an ODI for Sri Lanka since March 2020.

Calm down, it's an awful review. Pitched miles outside leg stump.

I'm not sure I can deal with watching this. Mathews to Stokes. Sri Lanka like it...

There’s a big bird of prey circling above the stadium. There’s probably a metaphor about England’s World Cup hopes in there.
I'm looking at lots of replays of that run out and might be softening to Root's culpability. Mathews was very deep, but it did bounce nicely for him.

Angelo Mathews was the fielder. Him again. In fairness to Root, though the run wasn't on, Bairstow has done him slightly by starting to walk towards him. They almost met in the middle. Ben Stokes is the new man. If you're going to try to walk on water, make sure you wear your comfortable shoes.

Image source, Getty ImagesThat's a poor run. When you're a bit nervy, a bit jittery, running between the wickets becomes a bit difficult. Jonny Bairstow had no interest in that run.
Root run out (Mathews) 3 (Eng 57-2)
This is a shocker. An absolute calamity.
Joe Root cuts and wants a single that is never, ever on. Jonny Bairstow sends him back, but Root turns slower than milk and even a dive can't save him.
Awful cricket. What a waste.
Paul Farbrace
Former England assistant coach on BBC Test Match Special
England won't be talking about a target, they'll be thinking more about a mindset and an approach. Once Bairstow and Malan got a couple of boundaries they visibly relaxed. England will be happy with this, about 60-1 after 10 overs.

I'm not sure that was necessary, but Root is very keen on getting Bairstow the strike in the powerplay.

That's close! Joe Root and Jonny Bairstow know each other so well and are both pretty quick. Bairstow, though, might not quite be the same man after that broken leg last year. Root wants one, Bairstow goes, and would have been just out had the throw from short cover hit.
