He had said that Malinga's rhythm was affected as he didn't play the Australian game and also that his brother in law Marvan Atapattu should play in place of Chamara. He also criticized the chairman of the select committee for keeping Marvan as a reserve player. (Marvan was a reserve player in the 1996 world cup as well)Arjuna had gone on to call the Lankan cricketers as "Hungers" and Tony Greg had intervened and said they were "Smart". At the beginning of the tournament Arjuna had said that the Cup would be won by India. But India was thrown out of the tournament from the first round itself clearly demonstrating Arjuna's analyzing abilities.<img src="http://img440.imageshack.us/img440/9779/arjunakr0.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></blockquote>
