Hey lets see some real odd, place a point spread as to how many runs will be scored and what the victory margin will be.

SCORE UPDATE AT 10 OVERS, 1st INNINGS
---------------------------------------------
Great first 10 overs for Sri Lanka, with 90 runs being scored and not a wicket falling
The score currently stands at 0/90.
S.Jayasuriya: 59*
R.Kaluwitharana: 29*

There hasn't been much edges nor mistimed shots. Jayasuriya looks set for another big score if he keeps on batting like he is now.

If Sri Lanka keep going at the current pace they will set a huge total.

Forgot to post the stats pic last time, so here's the 10 over stats pic:

SCORE UPDATE AT 20 OVERS, 1st INNINGS
---------------------------------------------
Another good 10 over period for Sri Lanka this time scoring 98 runs, with the loss of 1 wicket
The score currently stands at 1/188.
R.Kaluwitharana: 57*
M.Atapattu: 37*
S.Jayasuriya: 76 c. S.Matsikenyeri, b. A.Blignaut

With the dangerous Sanath Jayasuriya out earlier than usual, Zimbabwe will try get the rest out cheaply. This is the first time he has been dismissed this tournament.

Kaluwitharana and Atapattu will try and go on with their starts to make some big hundreds. Sri Lanka are in a commanding position.

SCORE UPDATE AT 30 OVERS, 1st INNINGS
---------------------------------------------
92 runs were scored in this 10 over period, but for the loss of 3 wickets
The score currently stands at 4/280.
K.Sangakkara: 40*
U.Chandana: 4*
M.Atapattu: 72 c. G.Flower, b. T.Friend
R.Kaluwitharana: 57 c. S.Ervine, b. T.Friend

Travis Friend was the big winner in this 10 over period, snatching up 3 wickets, and conceding 43 runs off his 5 overs. The Atapattu and Kaluwitharana partnership didn't hang last long, with Kaluwitharana being dismissed in the 21st over.

Sangakkara will be trying to reach his 50 in the next 10 over period. Sri Lanka are on their way to a very big score.

Forgot the Stats again:

 

[Kerry_OKeeffe]

whoa, ur heading for a score of 400+ if u keep this up, well done

 

[Radaga]

Good start mate, i think that if u keep this up 500 looks on the cards

SCORE UPDATE AT 40 OVERS, 1st INNINGS
---------------------------------------------
Only 71 runs scored in this period, quite small compared to the other 10 over periods
The score currently stands at 4/351.
K.Sangakkara: 61*
U.Chandana: 48*

Not as fast scoring in this 10 over period than other periods, but Sangakkara and Chandana done a good job scoring at 7 an over, and not losing a wicket.

Sri Lanka will try and score as many runs as possible in the next 10 overs, it's going to be a big total.

SCORE UPDATE AT END OF 1st INNINGS
---------------------------------------------
A massive 118 runs were scored during the last 10 over period of the innings, for the loss of only 2 wickets,
The score finished at 6/469
Batting Standouts
K.Sangakkara: 115* (87)
S.Jayasuriya: 76 (51) c. S.Matsikenyeri, b. A.Blignaut
M.Atapattu: 72 (49) c. G.Flower, b. T. Friend
R.Kaluwitharana: 57 (54) c. S.Ervine, b. T. Friend
U.Chandana: 54 (48) c. S.Ervine, b. R.Price
K.Dharmasena: 30* (19)

Bowling Standouts
R.Price: 2/66 (8.0 Overs)
T.Friend: 3/98 (10.0 Overs)

Only one player went on from their 50, that player was Kumar Sangakkara, he was easily the standout player. There were 4 other players that could not go on like Sangakkara which was a bit of a shame. Ray Price was by far the best of the Zimbabwean bowlers, only conceding 8.25 runs an over.

Zimbabwe will have a tough chase ahead of them, needing to score at a mammoth 9.4 runs an over.
