Ryan Sidebottom screams an appeal against Michael Vandort, Sri Lanka v England, 3rd Test, Galle, December 18, 2007

10.1 Sidebottom to Vandort, OUT, a huge appeal from Sidebottom as Vandort is rapped on the pads. Rauf, the umpire, has a long look at it - and he's given him! Good grief he took his time, and it looked to be spearing down the leg side. And it looked to be a bit high, too.

Steve Harmison traps Upul Tharanga lbw, Sri Lanka v England, 3rd Test, Galle, December 18, 2007

14.4 Harmison to Tharanga, OUT. Tharanga's rapped on the pads, Asad Rauf takes his time - and up goes the finger. That would have hit the top of the off stump, though replays show the ball pitched outside the leg stump. A dodgy decision, again, but very well bowled by Harmison

Steve Harmison struck twice late in the day, Sri Lanka v England, 3rd Test, Galle, December 18, 2007

53.2 Harmison to Silva, OUT, fantastic delivery! Silva came forward a little tentatively, pushing at it meekly, and with the extra bounce from Harmison the ball flew off a thick edge to Bell at first slip who took a simple catch
