    Kumar Sangakkara - a world Class Player and Captain, Failed to win a World Cup
    Mahela Jayawardene - a world Class Player and Captain, Failed to win a World Cup
    Arjuna Ranatunga - Not a World Class player and Captain, but won the 1996 world cup and became a world Class Payer and Captain

    Kumar Sangakkara, Mahela Jayawardene - Both played with Strong Team
    Arjuna Ranatunga - played as underdogs and after that victory we were called as a "strong team"

    "World Class bowler, Batsman, fielder, Not Crying after match" are all about individual things and achievements.

    As a nation we need victories, World titles, Cups. What's the need being in 1st position without having Cups ?

    No one write books, sing songs for 2nd place !

    Mahela Jayawardene - 57.20% (Winning ratio of ODI)
    Kumar Sangakkara - 65.85% (Winning ratio of ODI)
    Arjuna Ranatunga - 48.37% (Winning ratio of ODI)

    But Who won the World Cup in 1996 ? That's all we need as a Nation !

    Hats off to "Arjuna Ranatunga"
