Twitter reacts as Sri Lankan batsmen put fans to sleep against England
This was not the usual Sri Lanka we have seen in this tournament. They usually get out quickly and end the match as soon as possible. But today they just made everyone fall asleep! Fans tweeted about how boring they Sri Lankan batting was today. Probably most of them were half asleep while tweeting.
Brief scores: Sri Lanka 232/9 in 50 overs (Angelo Mathews 85*, Avishka Fernando 49; Mark Wood 3-40, Jofra Archer 3-52) vs England
Imagine the people watching the match in the stadium!
Feeling sleepy just by the sight of #ENGvSL scorecard in Cricinfo 😴

He had us in the first half, I am not gonna lie!
I think it's wrong to make fun of SL batsmen. They are trying. They are Batting well. They will avoid the follow on. #ENGvSL #CWC19

Someone give the answer please!
How to skip all Sri Lankan matches? #ENGvSL #CWC19

How many overs will England take to chase the total down?
It seems like Pakistan and Sri Lanka teams didn't get the memo that we are in 2019 not 1990. Batting with 4.35 Run Rate will get you nowhere on these pitches. #CWC19 #ENGvSL

This guy is literally begging the SL batsmen right now!
For the love of god just hit some boundaries! #ENGvSL #CWC19

Fast forward needed!
Whatever Lanka makes today, England will chase that with more than 20 overs to spare.

30 ball 60.#ENGvSL
We are just collateral damage!
Sri Lanka is taking revenge against the ICC by killing any sort of entertainment the audience may derive from their matches .. #ENGvSL #CWC19

What a selfish person!
Mathews has batted for his spot. Such selfish players do not deserve a place in team. #ENGvSL #CWC19

Food for thought!
England have very strong batting that they can chase anything under 350.. In the name of resilience What's use of Sri Lanka playing so slow on a batting wicket.. Can they defend it? #staraikelungal #ENGvSL

Stuck in the past!
Srilanka still stuck up in the 90's where 250 was a good score. #ENGvSL
