Dude, can you stop spamming please?

Is the pitch hard to bat on? SL batsmen seem to be in all sorts of strife regarding their scoring rate...I wonder if they will make enough in the last 10 - 15 overs.

(IMO they need 250+ to make a game of it)

Not really, looks pretty normal. Jayawardene and Sangakarra have been poor, Sangakarra was on the end of some good bowling but he was looking solid before he threw it away. Jayawardene has just been poor really, didn't look as solid as Sangakarra and never really looked like picking up the run rate.

Cricinfo is so crap!!

36.2 Bond to Dilshan, 1 run, tossed up on the stumps, plays with the spin, walking into it and picking up one to midwicket
EDIT: now they change it.

I think they'll end up with about 240-250 which should not be enough but who knows...the way we play Sri Lankas bowlers it could be

Yeah, thats what I thought.
Jaya seems to have a real case of the nerves...captain in a WC SF is getting to him, I think. His fellow batsmen falling around him isnt helping either.

Its a shame Silva went, he looked like he was the only once capable of uping the ante.

Agreed. IMO they need 270+ to edge the game in their favour.
240 - 260 will just about give their bowlers enough to defend.

Anything over 250 I'll be getting very nervous about, but I can see their bowlers defending 220 quite easily if the batsman had a big collapse.

FILOCRICKET. If you are going to just be a pest then take it somewhere else. Others are trying to enjoy the game. Thanks

Yep, agreed. NZ don't play Vaas, Murali or Malinga at all well judging by history. I always expected this game to be fairly low scoring.

**** me, how old are you? Seriously. No I can't afford Pay TV because, you know, I'm a uni student making **** all money. I mean, I've only had dinner twice this week so far, about about 6 meals this week. Might just go spend that money on some Foxtel.
