Highlights 12.2 TM Dilshan to GS Ballance, out, and Ballance goes. Dilshan has woken up too with a lovely catch. Ballance plays a nothing push in front of his body, the ball doesn't turn, hits the inside half of the bat, and lobs back towards the umpire. Dilshan cha | Feb 28, 2015
Highlights 11.3 AD Mathews to GS Ballance, 4 runs, Ballance gets going. Another wide length ball, he gets close to its line and pushes it past the diving short cover, and to the right of extra cover. All along the ground | Feb 28, 2015
Highlights 9.2 AD Mathews to MM Ali, out, and a wicket from nowhere. Moeen has thrown this away. A length ball outside off, and he plays a lazy neither-here-nor-there drive. He has neither played the classic off drive along the ground looking to beat mid-off either | Feb 28, 2015
Highlights 7.2 AD Mathews to IR Bell, 4 byes, one of those impossible balls to face. Looks like an outswinger, and then seams in after pitching. Bell is lucky this has bounced over the stumps. Kisses the trouser pocket along the way. Beats Sanga's dive to his left s | Feb 28, 2015
Highlights 6.3 SL Malinga to IR Bell, 4 runs, strays onto the pads and pays the price. Bell nicely clips this away wide of mid-on for four | Feb 28, 2015
Highlights 4.6 SL Malinga to MM Ali, 4 runs, that's a lovely shot. Malinga has missed his yorker by a few inches, and this is a low full toss. Moeen is deep in the crease, but he drives it with a slightly open face to place it between mid-off and cover | Feb 28, 2015
Highlights 3.6 RAS Lakmal to IR Bell, 4 runs, Did he offer another opportunity? Fails to control this cut, Dilshan has let one go to his left already, and this one has gone to his right. Dilshan has to go a little to his right. Almost a sitter by internationa | Feb 28, 2015
Highlights 3.5 RAS Lakmal to IR Bell, 2 runs, nearly a screamer. Wide length ball, swinging away, he drives at it away from the body, fails to control it. Chandimal dives full length from cover-point, gets too close to the ball, and is hit sort of on the wris | Feb 28, 2015
Highlights 3.2 RAS Lakmal to IR Bell, 4 runs, strays onto the pads again, and he plays a pick-up shot to a length ball. Over midwicket it goes | Feb 28, 2015

Interesting as always, and some warm and thoughtful comments on Tony Grieg. But CMJ? "he was just a colleague". They have worked together on TMS for the last 20 years, and known one another longer - CMJ has written insightful, but always fair-minded pieces on Boycott over the years, and did not do him any harm that I can see. CMJ may not have been a first-class cricketer, but he was an excellent journalist and commentator. A little more generosity of spirit would not go amiss from Boycott at times. He's the same with current players - he only praises the ones he personally gets along with.
