If game won't get continue then Aussis win by 25 runs(by D/L).

They're showing last years World Cup final over here.

It is delayed in Perth by 2 hours. So they are currently like 2 for 16. Well at least we get to watch the cricket. But according to the Duckworth Lewis Method (source cricinfo) Australia will win if play doesnt continue.

We're actually on top in this match imo.

SL might not be able to get back in the groove immendiately even if they come out.
It will be tough.As of now,I believe an India-Australia Final is on the cards.

Anyone got anymore information on Michael Clarke's hamstring injury. In Perth we just saw vision of Clarke holding his hamstring when in the action of throwing the ball. Anyone got any updates?

EDIT: False Alarm it seems.

 

[vaibhav mehta]

Well as Aussis won,it made life more difficult for Srilanka.Actually at the toss Srilankan captain told that he wanted to bowl first because there were chance of rain from morning.and he would feel more comfortable during chase if D/L comes in to play.In any case Aussis would have won that.without rain also Task was hard for Lankans.
So If Srilanka will win both of their remaining match with bonus points and India will loose both of their matches,then only we gonna have AUS Vs SRI.Which is looking like impossible for now.So we might confirm Ind Vs Aus for finals.

Not soon but yeah. It is higly unlikely that Sri Lanka will beat Australia in this series. India should rest Ishant Sharma for next game. And hopefully Dadaji would have been locked in toilet by some Indian fan at the ground.

 

[vaibhav mehta]

lol...You should sponser me a ticket.I'll do that for you..lol..

Sri Lankan batting has been pretty poor on tour. One has to say that it is refreshing to see "low-scoring" encounters in ODI cricket after being treated to a glut of 300+ innings'.

Maybe,but an Indian win will actually shut out Sri Lanka.So,it would be better if they play their full-strength and win.And against SL,they can rest a few players then.

Apart from Sanga,no one has really got off.
Regd the low scoring matches,pretty refreshing for some,but for those who have been treated only to 300+ encounters,its kinda boring.

 

[Leggie]

Yeah India should play full strength and then maybe rest Ishant and maybe let Tiwary or/and Raina have a game.

It really is time that one of the Sri Lanka batsmen stood up and took the pressure of the shoulders of Jayawardene and, particularly, Sangakarra. Unless they start contributing as a team, they're not going to get anywhere near the final.

It's looking impossible for them to reach the final now, altough it's still mathematically possible considering everything goes their way...
