I'm made up for you guys from Pakistan, you've had some rough **** to deal with of late and you all deserve this!! Great stuff :)

Assuming you score this one last run, anyway ;)

Couldn't have timed it better, Afridi. Only surviving member of the '99 Pak team that lost the World Cup final to Australia exactly 10 years and 1 day ago at this very ground.
Maybe some SL supporters can chuck cans at the Pakistan team, just to complete the parallels.

Anyway, well done Pakistan.

Gotta feel for SL, came second best in both World Cup finals.
They lost to a better side in both games though. In this game their batting was just too dependent on Dilshan and when he was out early it was going to be really difficult to recover and that's exactly what happened.

Afridi was player of the tournament in 2007 wasn't he?

This really shouldn't have been that much of a surprise then.

Dilshan player of the tournament in 2009, on the losing side, just like Afridi was in 2007.
