Haha, sorry Dipak, maybe you should have left Mills ahead of Vettori. :p Tremlett and your middle order probably lost you that one though.
 
@Dipak So You Are Not Going To Marry Her If You Loss Again

Congratulations BILAL For Winning The First Match

Fantastic start to the three match series. I thought it was a one-off game :p

Game summed up our season really. Morgan was the hero with the bat and the bowlers did just enough to hold on to the win. Great performance from Perera too, some late order slogging with a fantastic spell.

Pietersen trusted Dilshan ahead of Meaker at the dying stages of the game which ended up being a master stroke.

Unchanged and another normal pitch. ;)
