This seems a bit like the world cup final. We got all the gifficult wickets and could not get the easier ones. Why our team went without a spinner beats me.What a syupid shot from Upul Tharanga to start with. At least we did not loose very badly.Any way I wish our team good luck in the next match. They will have to play really weel but then again the Aussies are too cocky at the moment so we may surprise them.
Well, we didn’t play that bad. Our fielding was shoddy and we would have saved some runs. On the other hand, should have scored more (30 runs or so). Yep, Tharanga got out offering an easy catch. Dilshan wasted too many balls to score 43 runs! Having got the top order, we allowed Indian tail to wag. In contrast, Indian fielding was superb.
Can we beat Auz? Best of luck Mahela.
