Since he's our most charismatic captain after Arjuna, I really feel sorry about him! Great guy, great attitude with the arrogance of a Aussie. He has the best cover drive in the world at present with a superb average. Since he can keep behind stumps, our team gets an additional bowler/ batsmen. u witharamai adu gane, sledging hari karanna danne, ape team eke 
.
He can do as much when his team is fielding but when it comes to batting, the others simply have no consistency, so he has very less control. Just look at that shot Chamara played; totally unnecessary. Upul Tharanga is just a zombie and SL still couldn't find a partner for Dilshan. Look at Thisera Perera, who smashed Stephen Smith at the 20/20 but today got out so cheaply. And that debutant Dhorty picked up some 4 wickets!
Imagine 50 overs in the field doing lot of hard work to shout and encourage the bowlers to bowl line and length and the fielders to stay tight, to restrict the Aussies to just 239 and he goes to the pavilion hoping the batsmen would do their job; but they don't!
At the same time, imagine, except for the British, no other team has a guaranteed chance to meet the great Aussies, so how bad it feels to see a easy match slip away like that?
And if he loses a few matches like that cuz of the batsmen's fault, the media unfairly puts his captaincy at fault! That's how Mahela too lost his captaincy I reckon.
And we thought our job is the toughest
