England had to dominate in the second test lest they slipped from the world number one ranking. Although, it is too early to say whether England fianlly wins or not, but by Day-3, England is in a commanding position.
Today, the Day-3 saw England's Pietersen disregarding hosts' bowlers and scored impressive 151 off 165 balls, which inlcuded six mighty sixes. Besides Pietersen, Alastair Cook remained six shor t of a century, while Jonathan Trott scored 64. England is was all out for 460, a little before the bales off.
Sri Lanka made four runs before the day's play ended and now trails behind the visitors by 185 runs.
Day-4 tomorrow will be crucial for both the hosts and the visitors. If Sri Lanka can get hold of the match, they can over awe the visitors and maycreate a dilemma for their ranking.
