Some people were thrown out of the ground, and a  lot of stuff was consequently thrown from the stands until one rock hit a  Pakistant fielder. Since then the teams have reached the safety of the  dressing rooms, riot police has arrived, armed guards have arrived and  police has always been there. The stands have been evacuated. Now we are  awaiting the match referee's word if the match is to be immediately  awarded to Pakistan or if they will play out the rest in front of empty  stands. Pakistan will win either way, that's for sure    Umair: "Whoops, Srilankans are quite lovely fans, I hope this is some  isolated event. Stay safe Srilankan and Pakistani players!"    Kassa: "Embarrassed on what has happened on the ground. Never thought  Lankan spectators would act this way. Hope Match referee will continue  the game soon. [sorry face] "   9.40pm They seem to be going off as armed guards are on the  field. Ian Gould and Srinath, the match referee, are in a conversation,  which also involves fixing Srinath's jacket. The offending stand is  being evacuated. Riot police is in too   9.37pm More fights among the crowd in the stands. The players meanwhile are sat down safely in the middle of the ground   Heli: "Omg! Never thought something like that would happen in Sri Lanka.  If what cricinfo reported has treuly happened I would like to apologise  to Pakistan and all the cricket fans in behalf of Sri Lankans. "   A player has been hit by a projectile from the stands. They have  stopped play for a bit. There is security out there at ground level, but  this one seems to have come from the top tier. The police looked  embarrassed and hassled. Match referee Javagal Srinath is out looking at  stuff   Just being told there was a mini riot in that stand about half an hour  ago. This is quite scary for an international match. Spectators throwing  rocks at players</blockquote>
