*Official* - Final - India v Sri Lanka

[Bahnz]

Well done Mahela.

 

[Adamc]

Great knock. Solid chance for SL to win this.

 

[Howe_zat]

What a ****ing hundred. Wonderous.

 

[Desire]

 

[Spark]

Okay that was needless IMO. Kulasekara was batting really well.

 

[KiWiNiNjA]

Not a bad result for SL, really.
Worth it to get Mahela back on strike, even if Kulasekara was playing well.

 

[_Ed_]

End of an excellent supporting effort.

Nice to see Mahela give him a pat on the back.

 

[JBH001]

Kula!

Well played, Kula.

Edit/ Nice throw from MSD with the gloves on.

 

[R_D]

What happend to bowling Yorkers at the end Zaheer?

 

[social]

One of the great knocks

100 @ 120 with people falling down around you is brilliant stuff

260 is going to be a massive ask even for this lineup

 

[Spark]

That over has seriously ruined Zaheer's figures now.

 

[Jayzamann]

Thisara has a bit of a gut on him.

Mahela is the goods. Deserves a WC medal, but I'm still indifferent as to whoever wins this.

 

[Uppercut]

Even forgetting the circumstances, that's quite possibly the most beautiful ODI century I've ever seen.

 

[JBH001]

Okay that was needless IMO. Kulasekara was batting really well.

Yeah, I agree. Perera looks like he is trying too hard to bludgeon the ball. Kula was playing good cricket shots.

Edit/ And as I say that Perera smacks a four.

 

[Kylez]

Been absent from the match thread so far, I don't know if that is a good thing or not, Fantastic innings from Maehla though, what a joy to watch.

SL heading towards a decent total one feels. Kulasekera could play a huge part in the game if he produces that huge inwards movement, especially to Sehwag who is clueless against it.

 

[JBH001]

Even forgetting the circumstances, that's quite possibly the most beautiful ODI century I've ever seen.

Yeah, I agree.

 

[Jono]

Harbhajan is such a hack.

Vcs this is what I was talking about. So useless in odis.

 

[Somerset]

Brilliant knock from Jayawardene. A quality finish here pushing SL towards 270 could prove to be really useful. No ones chased more than 274 in a WC batting second and against a strong SL bowling line-up I don't think it'll be an easy chase. Another statistic is that no one's made a century and lost a WC final before...

 

[_Ed_]

Mahela looked exhausted at the non-striker's end there. Can't blame him.

 

[Spark]

Geez, almost got a boundary through backward point to what would have been a wide.

Good god he's hit that hard. Zaheer is being absolutely hammered here.
