Can't believe Sangakkara going to knocked out this knocked, probably the all time greatest keeper batsmen in the sub-continent in history. Oh well Inzi, is a gun.

Inzamam. I think folks are overrating Sanga's batting in comparison to Inzi's. Inzi has played most of his career in the same era as Lara and Tendulkar, Sanga has had the benefit, of flatter pitches and worse bowling attacks with which to inflate his batting average. His stats are still excellent for a wick-batsman, but I don't think he's done it consistently for as long as Inzi has, so I can't classify him as a great like Inzi.

I can't believe these two got past the 2nd round and some of the others didn't.
Mankad, purely cus you can't rate someone from 10 Tests, which weren't even that great.

Mankad. Not the best of third round battles, really.
