Ich bin ein Sri Lanka

Do you guys expect the toss to play a huge factor today?

team winning the toss would want to bat first IMO. the pitch might slow down in the second innings.

 

[Prince EWS]

Smith, I'm a Smith too. Stop with the abuse dude. Sorry for calling you gay!! We could learn to like each other. We both like cricket and league.

As do I.

FTR I think you've been much more pleasant since your last return. You're even funny sometimes!

I hope umpires wear black shirts today otherwise Aussies might have problems in sighting Malinga's deliveries.

There has been an obvious change in Fiery's attitude since his comeback, but TBH Fiery has never said anything rude or irritating to me so personally i never had any problems with his attitude.

 

[Matt79]

So Fiery, to confirm the terms of the challenge:
If Watto scores 30 or takes 2 wickets, you'll have the "Watto 4 Lyf" picture as your avatar for a month.
If he doesn't, I'll have a picture of Mason, selected by yourself (as long as it won't get me banned), as my avatar for a month, with the following provisos to account for the vaguaries of ODIs:
- If Watson is injured during the course of the match, bet is off.
- If Watson doesn't get two wickets, but also doesn't get a chance to bat, no result
- If Watson is not out for a score less than 30, but has scored his runs at more than a run a ball, no result.
- If Watson only comes in with 2 overs or less of the innings to play - no result.
- Otherwise, if his score is not greater than 30 AND he doesn't take 2 wickets, I lose.

All sound fair?

All sounds fair to me. Shut up...I'm trying to watch the Crusaders thrash the Brumbies

Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong,
Under the shade of a coolibah tree,
And he sang as he watched and waited 'til his billy boiled
"Who'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me?"

Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda
Who'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me
And he sang as he watched and waited 'til his billy boiled
"Who'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me?"

Down came a jumbuck to drink from the billabong,
Up jumped the swagman and grabbed him with glee,
And he sang as he stowed that jumbuck in his tucker bag,
"You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me".

Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda
"You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me"
And he sang as he stowed that jumbuck in his tucker bag,
"You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me".

Up rode the squatter, mounted on his thoroughbred,
Down came the troopers, one, two, three,
"Where's that jolly jumbuck you've got in your tucker bag?"
"You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me".

Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda
"You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me"
"Where's that jolly jumbuck you've got in your tucker bag?",
"You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me".

Up jumped the swagman, leapt into the billabong,
"You'll never catch me alive," said he,
And his ghost may be heard as you pass by the billabong,
"Who'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me".

Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda
Who'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me
And his ghost may be heard as you pass by the billabong,
"Who'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me?"

Substitute Matilda with Murali and you've got a cheating little bug-eyed ****er who chucks. C'mon Aussie c'mon, c'mon!!!

 

[Craig]

If Sri Lanka win I'll allow Steds to give me an avatar of Jamie Lyon and I'll put it up for the whole month of May.

 

[andyc]

Just realised that tonight is the last time we'll see McGrath bowl. Sobering thought, I've watched him all my cricketing life.

 

[Matt79]

Fiery - trying to get himself banned because he realises Watto's going to deliver.

? No I'm not Matt79.. Why would you say that?

 

[shehanwije]

Best wishes to Australia....you may need it today against this talented Lankan side.

Go the Lankans...we can do it, again!

The weather in Barbados is "reasonable, with a nice breeze and a few distant clouds this morning" according a sms from a contact of mine a few mts ago on the ground. So hopefully the rain will stay away.

This is my last post prior to getting out for a Lankan World Cup party in Sydney.

 

[Shaggy Alfresco]

I've been talking to a friend from Malaysia. Despite being a descendent of Sri Lankan immigrants, he is a Tamil and hopes Sri Lanka get destroyed horribly by the Australian team. Something about a civil war. He also hates Murali for playing for the "enemy".

Water and Vinegar.....it's just a sport !

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

you've just had one haven't you, Wattoboy?

Yeah, so? If you keep trolling with verbal abuse and bordering racism I'm sure you'll have another, much longer one.

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

Despite all the problems with this WC and the lack of exciting games featuring Australia to date, I'm quite pumped for tonight. Just a couple of hours to go.

Not sure where the racism calls come from there ?

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Even though he's thrown the bowl for the last 15 years and claimed a catch that he knew he had dropped and had to pick up on the bounce from the ground to get Oram out and destroy NZ's hopes of winning the WC? Cheating little monkey!

Probably from that.
