Jayasuriya being tied down by Pollock and Ntini - usually precedes his throwing his wicket away !

Not much to go by, but he does average 37.33 more runs per innings (78.57 to 41.24) when he doesn't keep wicket.

I say not much to go by though, as he has only played 22 innings as a batsman alone.
Out for 14 today, so that should bring that average down quite a bit !!:D

Steyn intent on hurting Jayasuriya - short , sharp rising deliveries aimed at Ribs !! :D
As long as it's accompanied by leaking 7 runs per over I guess Jayasuriya won't mind too much.

Jayawardene gone, SL three down and in a bit of trouble.
Exactly the scenario when everyone Sri Lankan starts wondering why Prasanna J was picked and how advantageous it would be had another batter been picked instead !!:dry:

SL definitely struggling here . SA right on top , SL may be forced to Follow on .

Sri Lanka 5 down for 86.
Dilshan bowled by Ntini and Jayasuriya out two balls later to Ntini who now has 4 for 21.

22.3 Ntini to Dilshan, OUT, and the bowling change works! Ntini picks up his third wicket and Sri Lanka are in trouble here. Slightly short, bowled from wide of the crease and coming in with the angle, was going well over the stumps. Dilshan offers no shot but leaves his bat hanging in the air, ball clips the toe end of the bat and crashes into the leg stump.
TM Dilshan b Ntini 4 (5b 1x4 0x6) sr: 80.00
Was the Dilshan dismissal as silly as CricInfo makes it?

You are obviously watching it live !! *Which I am not *:D

SL very likely to have to follow on and SA right on top .

The 6th wicket is only a few minutes away given the batting prowess of Prasanna Jayawardene !! * Another walking wicket * (as Hall was described by Cricinfo yesterday):D

Two differant things. You know Prasanna is a walking wicket before he even hits the wicket. Hall just looked like one on the day ... You can hardly call you 50+ avg as a opener a *walking wicket*
