About time, RS Dravid really introspected and took a solid decision. He's been phenomenal, but realistically he has to assess how much forward he can go from here.
With Ganguly that possibility is nigh, so selectors should take the burden upon themselves.
Regards Sachin, I think he deserves one more series.

It is a cracker of a pitch. A definite 400+ wicket. A real pity. And the wase with which the 10 and jack have survived for close to 15 overs, ie, more than an hour demonstrates the lack of application shown by the top order.

Anything above 250 will be worth a fight. Since SL will be last to bat.

this is the third best partnership of the innings.

Preying Mendis gets his second fifer and his 23rd of the series!!! What a dream debut this man is having! But for Sehwag, he might have had absurd averages!

Yea, Mendis has gotten a ridiculously good start to his Test career.

You know what's really sad? According to the FTP, Sri Lanka plays no Tests against the top sides for the rest of the year, unless they do end up going to England.

But it's only little Sri Lanka -- where are the crowds going to come from to watch them play?
UTTER RUBBISH.
While I'm not sure about claiming that SL are the 2nd best Test team, as away performances still need work, I do think that they offer one of the most exciting prospects for a true cricket fan. If you're lucky, you'd get highest-quality spin, an exciting fast bowler with (almost) unique action and classical batting.
It's the unpredictability that gets me. Will we collapse and lose by an innings? Or rack up 600 and win by one?
Anyway, this is the wrong place for this sort of rant. Preaching to the converted.
I'm going to get some lunch.

Once agains Mendis gets 5. He's eating in to Murali's share at an annoying rate. At this rate, Murali may never get his 1000. 900 wickets would be a more realistic goat I would think.
Impressed with Prasad. He's shown the pace about him. If there has been the third seamer, we could have seen him getting up to 150k mark, because he would have known he's going to bowl a short spell.
Vandort is handling Sharma very well. His fondness for pacy wickets are showing up here. He's extremely comfortable on balls that are raring up.
