2011: Sri Lanka in spectacular and suspicous collapse (Cardiff)

Sri Lanka was bowled out for just 82 in under 25 overs after a spectacular collapse amidst whisperings of suspicous match fixing activities.

A draw seemed inevitable when play started. Chris Tremlett (4-40) grabbed two early wickets, before he and Swann (4-16) combined to tear through the tourists.

With the last eight wickets falling in just over an hour after the tea interval, it left England victorious by an innings and 14 runs.
