00:00Yeah.
00:27Only gets away with that.
00:29Can't have been far away from Lake Stump.
00:32Duckett looking to flash one through
00:34the offside gets an inside edge for four.
00:41Don't bowl there.
00:43Left hand right hand combination.
00:45So Vishwa Fernando's gotta adjust his line.
00:48He's on the line for Dan Lawrence,
00:50the right hander there,
00:51but not for Ben Duckett.
00:52More runs through the lakeside for Duckett.
01:00Should be three of them.
01:04In England, now 15 for non from 4.
01:13He likes it there short and wide.
01:15He's tried on a couple of occasions
01:17to connect and hasn't done so.
01:19He gets it away this time for three more.
01:23So.
01:31The outfield is not quite as
01:33quick as normal here.
01:34It's very lush.
01:50And cheers.
01:52From the oval crowd who recognized
01:54the rather prolonged way.
01:59Too straight.
02:07Too straight, that's their pressure.
02:10Their problem, they can't keep the pressure on.
02:13An easy clip ball 29 for none.
02:22That's what he's after strong there.
02:31Should be a couple.
02:36The change of angle for Camara
02:38looking to take that square of the
02:40wicket on the offside option out of play.
02:52Run. Nice drive down the ground.
02:56Outfield slower because of the rain,
02:58especially in that direction.
03:00Fielder does well.
03:19Down the wicket again and
03:22over that offside.
03:30And up and over again,
03:32toe end of the bat.
03:34Real aggression from Ducat.
03:36He has 36 in 35 deliveries.
03:42Up in the air, this should be gone.
03:44Gullies underneath it taken.
03:46Lawrence got himself in an awkward position.
03:50Sri Lanka have their first.
03:53Of the pool shot, a tangled up.
03:57Last shot eyes off the ball
03:58straight up in the air.
04:00Easy catch.
04:03Lawrence gone England 45 for one.
04:09Yeah, because the man was back.
04:12Now come back for two here.
04:13Good running.
04:14It was almost like he was trying
04:15to just knock it for one, wasn't he?
04:20Yeah.
04:22Duck it again, leg side.
04:24He really has been positive.
04:31That's a beautiful back up.
04:33Holy Pope off the mark with a boundary.
04:40Not that length too short.
04:4211 overstumped 55 for one.
04:50With that I was on the roundabout
04:52off stump but the bottom hand came through.
04:57Hopeful run back for three.
05:06Yes.
05:08Stop that may well have run away.
05:10That's the shorter boundary there.
05:11Ducky just opening the face played it nicely.
05:15Oh, short ball just picked up off his hip.
05:22And gone all the way for six.
05:26It get early wickets.
05:29Cleverly done, there's an air of risk
05:31with the catchers in place,
05:33but Duckett by and large was in control of that.
05:36He moves to 44.
05:41Punched beautifully through extra
05:42cover off the back foot.
05:44He's played some sparkling shots today.
05:46That's probably the best of them.
05:51Smashed away through extra cover.
05:53It was half parried by that fielder,
05:56but it will allow Ben Duckett to
05:59comfortably come back for three and go to 51.
06:09The coaching captain.
06:12One way across and he needs to get back.
06:14And he does.
06:23Fernando. See the Fernando starts
06:26the session off from the Vauxhall end.
06:30Bit of movement with Pope drives.
06:34Hasn't got all of it, but pushing for three.
06:37Turns and goes.
06:40Swing that back to the stumps.
06:45But he didn't evolve with.
06:48And Ollie Pope was quick onto it and
06:50that raced away to the point boundary.
06:56Chipped in the air around the corner.
06:59Pushing for two and he's going to come back.
07:04With again, Duckett is so quick onto that.
07:09Across the really quick square here at the Oval.
07:14Push it for two.
07:21And that backward point is way behind square.
07:29Slashed away cries of catch it for a moment.
07:35There's no fielder there.
07:40It's the mid wicket gap this time.
07:43Comfortable too, although only Pope
07:45slips the non strikers end.
07:54Tend to leave outside of stump.
07:56That's going to bring only Pope to.
07:58Brilliant running.
08:01Fielder slightly slow.
08:08Timed away on the leg side.
08:11It's going to get two more.
08:20For signal. A very saucy.
08:26Oh sure.
08:30Beautiful timing from Pope whose
08:32movements have become more and
08:35more smooth as he's gone along.
08:37Against footballers.
08:39Field around the boundary is
08:41a long way behind square.
08:47Two fielders looked at each other.
08:50White ball series against Australia.
08:54Goes again this time he gets all of it,
08:56and this time it goes all the way for 6.
08:59Impudence and skill in equal measure.
09:09Yeah, and he used the word.
09:16Oh, it goes the other way.
09:18Goes for six again.
09:21Brilliance from Duckett.
09:28Goes again, there's nobody back there.
09:32Vishwa will intercept.
09:36Duckett is just having a party to
09:37himself out there at the moment.
09:42Big shout.
09:47No, says Joel.
09:52Regional decisions not out.
09:55Impact is in line.
09:58Getting the wicket unbiased
09:59for not out signal now.
10:01Well, there was definitely worth a look
10:03for just clipping the top of the stump.
10:06Tires cool, not out on field stays not at.
10:12And gone went to the well once too often.
10:15Did Ben Duckett?
10:17With another test match 100.
10:22What's that exactly what we're
10:23talking about just last over?
10:25The courage to play the shot.
10:27How do you feel then if it doesn't come off?
10:29You look up at the scoreboard
10:31and you're leaving the ground
10:32and you're 86 you're 14 away
10:34from another test match 100.
10:36That's why they want to play.
10:41Top edge. And that's going
10:44to fly away for six as well.
10:47Kamara cannot believe it.
11:0050 for Pope. His 14th in test match
11:03cricket to go along with 600.
11:06And it's a welcome return to form.
11:13Almost almost. Leg slip was there.
11:26Running hard for two.
11:27That's very good from England.
11:29That intensity.
11:34Neatly tucked leg side will bring.
11:37Joe route a couple.
11:41With Olly Pope has leapt onto that with glee.
11:48Kevin, you watch Olly Pope's footwork now.
11:55It's really a measure of how
11:57Sri Lanka struggle today that
11:58Angelo Matthews is bowling.
12:00He's bowled so little.
12:02In the last few years.
12:07Oh. Well, that was laced with risk
12:10because there's a slip a little
12:12wide and a fine goalie.
12:14Somehow Pope has got it between them.
12:21Did well to reach it in the end.
12:23It was so wide.
12:26And he gets a almost a toe end of
12:29the bat and sends it away over
12:31the body for four.
12:37I've taken in the end route was walking
12:40the moment he hit that shot he
12:42knew he'd picked out fine leg.
12:47Good from Pope balance was
12:49excellent on that occasion.
12:52The ball found the middle of the bat,
12:53even though it won't get to the boundary.
13:01A beauty to finish and to show.
13:04What there is in this pitch and in
13:06the conditions for Sri Lanka's
13:07bowlers if they get it right.
13:13Just just beyond the grasp.
13:21Nick through the slips.
13:26Probably straight into the
13:27hands of third had he been there.
13:31Straight has that taken a
13:32glove on the way through a seat?
13:34I think so.
13:35Shandimal rather appealed as an afterthought.
13:43Coming through.
13:47Going through.
13:51Nothing there. But line.
13:56Yeah, it wasn't the most convincing appeal.
14:01And at the Oval Faithful here
14:03are desperate to see early Pope.
14:06Guess that one passed up and it will
14:08run across those practice pitches and
14:10there will be no dragging it back.
14:13Pope goes into the 90s.
14:15Yeah, the question.
14:21And that'll be for more.
14:24In the ball, trundling across those.
14:27Cut pitches on this huge
14:28square here at the Oval.
14:32And through it gets.
14:35Olly Pope, a 7th Test match 100.
14:38His first here at the Oval.
14:41Becomes the first batter in the
14:43history of the game to score all
14:45of his first 700s in Test match
14:47cricket against different opposition.
14:55Full stroke from Brooke.

15:03in the history of the game to score
15:05all of his first 700s in Test match
15:07cricket against different opposition.
15:09She's going to be the first batter in
