Super Eight

[Raghav]

My words coming true...SRL will score over 280 and AUS will fall short..Thats for sure

 

[simmy]

Raghav why do you have the Indian team?

 

[Raghav]

Sri Lanka used the same maneuver against India. They dropped Murali and Vaas for the recent tour of India. Then hit them with the two in the WC and knocked them out. Here they have a chance to lull Oz into complacency against their B attack and then really come at them in the final.

Tait v Jaya is going to be awesome. Come on SRL!

 

[Perm]

You are a crazy cat Perm. Congrats on 5000!

Haha, thanks bud.

Too many singles on offer here for Sri Lanka, they aren't having to hit out because they are sneaking so many runs. Jayasuriya almost top edges a pull for 6 off Tait.

You think he's better than Roofers? Kulasekara has looked pretty ordinary to me, certainly not as consistent as Maharoof or threatening as Fernando from the limited times I have seen him bowl.

As to not drag it through this thread while the game is on...

I dont have the INDIAN team. BCCI owns it

EDIT: Vass and Murali have been rested, shocking move from Sri Lanka.

Looks like Sri Lanka wanna face New Zealand in the semis

****, Taito stop bowling short.

 

[simmy]

Lol @ Tait. What a nutter.

I meant HATE. Smartass!

 

[Prince EWS]

****, Taito stop bowling short.

Surely it can't be long before they start calling him "Po."

 

[Raghav]

Tait to Jayasuriya, FOUR, banged in short down leg stump, Jayasuriya hooks, doesnt time it well but the top-edges flies over Gilchrist down to fine leg for four

GOOD SHOT.. Come ON Jaya...

 

[pup11]

Tait should be taken off the attack after this over.

 

[Perm]

Tait is leaking runs here, time to bring McGrath on I think.

 

[Raghav]

Tait should be taken off the attack after this over.

Early problems for AUS.....poor AUS

 

[simmy]

Tait should be taken off the attack after this over.

Leave him on for comedy value I reckon.

 

[Perm]

Surely it can't be long before they start calling him "Po."

Gilchrist has been outstanding with the gloves so far, made 2 or 3 good takes down the leg side.

 

[Raghav]

Leave him on for comedy value I reckon.

Good thought...I would like Tait to bowl..want to see him give runs...Valuable runs at the start

 

[pup11]

Pro-active running from Lankans so far.
