Sri Lanka at England's Mercy Tuesday 29th September, 2009 Sri Lanka will qualify for semis if England beat New Zealand dismiss New Zealand batsmen - two against top scorer Jesse Ryder and one off Man of the Match Daniel Vettori. Sri Lanka at “The real minus is the way we are fielding at the moment. It’s been sometimes appalling. To get to international standards we’ve got lot of work to do. I managed to fumble quite an easy run out chance as well. Had we got that England’s mercy run out, we could have got them out early and they wouldn’t have added that extra 40 runs,” Sangakkara said. Sangakkara missed the run out chance with Vettori on six and the New Zealand captain went onto post 48, his highest score against Sri Lanka in ODIs. “In all three departments the team needs to do lot of brushing up. Lot of individuals need to improve on a few things. As a team especially with our fielding we need to work on. Forget the bowling and batting. You score runs, you give away runs and you take wickets.

The International Cricket Council found opener Roy had breached level one of its code of conduct, using an audible obscenity after a misfield during Pakistan’s innings. Fast bowler Archer was found guilty of dissent towards an umpire’s decision following a wide delivery. Both players have also had one demerit point added to their records. Pakistan captain Sarfaraz Ahmed was fined 20 percent of his fee, and his teammates 10 percent, for a minor over-rate offence. Pakistan won Monday’s match by 14 runs after setting England a target of 349. It was an occasionally fractious encounter, with the umpires warning England skipper Eoin Morgan about his side throwing the ball in on the bounce and later issuing the same reminder to Sarfaraz. The tactic is often used to scuff up the ball and promote reverse swing. England batsman Jos Buttler appeared to take a look at the ball on his walk back to the pavilion after his knock of 103 came to an end.
