35th Match - Scotland v Sri Lanka (11th March)

[viriya]

Quite likely. As good a chance as he will ever get too.

Spoke too soon.

Thought of switching to the Ranji final. There one team has made 100 and the other is still batting at 600 in the first dib.

Maybe these two wickets will keep you interested?

This is usually what happens when I disparage a team or game. I accused Bangladesh of being crap the other day when they were getting bashed around by Scotland, and pretty much from that point onward they've been excellent.

Scotland have a chance of restricting SL to 350 or so and making a game of this now.

Another lovely century. Sangakkara's such a pleasure to watch.

Scotland won't get close to 350.

 

[Maximas]

Scotland won't get close to 350.

If SL post anything under about 600 you can expect viriya to back any team to chase it down

Ridiculous post

Josh Davey has the most wickets in this tournament.

Two pace bowlers coming in after some time and no specialist spinner.. Scotland's strong suit is batting too.. I can see them getting 300+ if they don't lose early wickets.

 

[Pratters]

Sri Lanka won't lose this viriya. You can bet Angelo's high school on that.

I said that when both Sanga and Mahela got out.. Now they can't restrict SL to 350 so it's over.

No, Scotland's strong suit is the bowling. Ireland's strong suit is batting. Scotland rely on Machan and Coetzer. You could argue a combined Scotland/Ireland batting lineup would feature 0 Scots.

Wow...

Someone find me a more gambhiring post than this. I doubt that is possible. This is an all-time record post.

 

[Maximas]

Probably time to stop taking the piss now

 

[viriya]

SL can collapse here.. very brittle lower order.

 

[Maximas]

That means you too viriya

 

[Antihippy]

Sri lanka really should have been 400+ at the end in the position they were in.

 

[Pratters]

How many times have the Lankans lost to minnows while we are at it. Can't remember any instances of importance.

We are very reliable against the minnows
