Naturally, Sri Lankans expect a repetition of the 1996 performance. This time too, Sri Lanka has sneaked in to the finals, partially thanks to the frolics of Ireland and Bangladesh, which kept more formidable opponents out of Sri Lanka's way. Any how let's look at both countries records this world cup:Australia has won all the matches it faced in this world cup, including 7 of 7 in super eights.Sri Lanka lost against Australia and South Africa in this tournament.Australia is ruthless; it believes in taking no prisoners. It is clinical in its approach, gritty when fighting back and remorseless in its decapitation of opponents. Having been the best cricket side in the world for some years now, it brooks no failure. It is the champion side. It came to the Caribbean with the intention of defending the title. It believes in its invincibility.If the team that lost two matches wins the trophy over a team that has consistently been winning not only in this tournament but also in the tests and one-dayers prior to the tournament, then there's something wrong with the tournament regulations!Therefore its Aussies all the way!</blockquote>
