This is a match SL could have won, had the senior capable batsmen in the top slots batted well, with dedication and concentration. They had failed the nation. They had rested in their laurels after winning the previous match against SL. They were not focused enough.
I hope our team will improve in all aspects of batting, felding and bowling, with motivation and dedication to win honour and glory to SL at last!

Could Matt the prat make comments relevant to the topic rather than hurl insults at fellow bloggers! It is perhaps a disease of diaspora Tamils/TNA nationalists to insult, sling mud and provide disinformation, rather than contribute sensible/rational comments. They are inane and empty headed!
