***Official*** Sri Lanka in Australia

[Pratters]

The decision to not enforce the follow on was wrong IMO.

 

[Fiery]

What a class act Sangakarra is. Shame he's not getting any help from his teammates

 

[cameeel]

That's robbed, he didn't get anywhere near that

 

[Pratters]

Wrong decision does the tragic hero in.

 

[Isura]

Disgraceful that the Aussies appealed for that. You can clearly hear the ping sound from the helmet.

Nothing wrong with appealing, it hit his arm before the helmet, but still, poor decision by Koertzen.

 

[Pratters]

Murali gets 4. 96 more to get for him for his 100.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

I thought he'd hit it originally tbh, but it was a shocker.

Strangely enough, the ball can hit the bat and the helmet.

 

[Nate]

Amazing knock by Sangakkara. One of the best I daresay.

 

[pasag]

Sigh why does Rudi have to get his grubby paws all over one of the greatest knocks on Australian soil in recent times?

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Rudi's a shocking umpire, btw.

I've never rated him as an umpire, unlike others. Always thought he made some crucial decisions poorly. Nevertheless it was a great knock by Sanga.

 

[Jono]

So ****ing ****. That's tragic.

 

[alternative]

Pathetic stuff there, quite shocked with that decision. Sanga played an extrodinary knock.

 

[Johnners]

AWTA, poor decision, end to a great innings, well played Sanga.

MacGill shouldn't be playing any more tests for the near future at least where I am concerned. Maybe think about him for a subcontinent tour in the future (whenever it happens) but not right now.

I don't agree with that MacGilla's talent is very well known to all of us he just is having a rough time of it atm (and he probably has a dodgey knee too) so he needs all the support he can get atm from his team-mates because ideally the Aussies would want him to there till the Ashes 09 so that gives the next-gen spinners time to be groomed.

I'm a MacGill fan but the knee thing doesn't really wash with me. If it is his knee causing him to bowl badly, which I doubt, well then deepest sympathies to him, but he shouldn't be playing tests anymore as the knee isn't going to get any better.

I think he'll be back to his best soon though; I don't think this slump has much to do with his knee at all.

MAAAAAAAAAAALINGA!!!

Haha this is fun.

4,4,6

 

[cameeel]

So we can conclude from this that Malinga > Vandort, Jayawardene, Jayawardena, Silva, Maharoof and Fernando

He's taken 16 off this over!

 

[sideshowtim]

Malinga and Murali still have a chance of winning this one.
