MOTM:T.Sameraweera
Result:SL win by 5 wickets.
Reaction:
No early wickets this time and only Mendis(2/39) and Murali (2/36) made headway with Sameraweera unable to pick up a wicket.
Vaas picked up three late wickets to stem the run flow for the final overs.
Vandort and Sangakkara started well but the removal of Vandort for 20 saw Jayawardene go too.
Parana looked like batting well until he was run out by a loose call from Sanga and the lower order sped up the then slow run rate and easily cleared the win which I was beginning to think that I couldn't reach!!
