england crushes srilanka

England surge to victory by an innings and 14 runs, Tremlett leading them from the field with souvenir stump in hand. Sri Lanka just completely lost it after tea, their composure falling away completely as they imploded to lose 8 for 49 in just over 12 overs since tea.
Tremlett started the slide with two wickets before the break and a third immediately upon the resumption to reduce Sri Lanka to 33 for 3. It was one-way traffic from there, Swann coming to the fore after the initial damage had been done to claim four quick scalps and Broad returning to finish things off. Sri Lanka were completely blown away.
