    The Preview by Brydon Coverdale in Melbourne February 21, 2008 Sri Lanka's match against Australia at the MCG on Friday is not technically a must-win game for the visitors but Mahela Jayawardene knows another defeat could be as good as fatal to their CB Series. Australia are all but into the...

    You can't blame sanga for the two runouts..:no: Bowler got a fingertip on the straight drives in both occasions. It wasn't our day... Just too unlucky..We would have had a much bigger target if we didn't loose Mahela in the crucial stage of the game..

    Sri Lanka Announce their XI for West Indies Tour 2008

    Mahela has been performing well enough at the test level.. His captaincy has been little ordinary in the current series but you can't just take his captaincy away just because he underperformed in a series or two.. Most of the guys in the team is performing badly. Captain can only do strategic...

    I have lost all my faith.. :( I think loosing this series will wake everyone up and hopefully we can learn from our mistakes. By any chance if we get selected there won't be any competition in the Final games.. Its not the usual positive looking sri lankan team we are seeing in this series :sorry:

    6th Match: Australia v Sri Lanka at Perth, Feb 15, 2008

    Last match against india our Batters did well but bowling failed a bit.. This time bowlers and fielders did well but batsmen failed.. It has to be a combined effort of these three units if we are to challenge the opposition.. Until we get it sorted out we will fail further.. :no: Our middle...

    It is simple as this... We have to win at least another 3 out of the coming 4 matches to be 100% sure.. All 3 teams have 4 matches left..But if we can beat india twice and aussies beat them at least once then we are thru even if we loose 2 against aussies. But we cannot predict the weather :(...
