Bill O'Reilly bowled exceptionally well in conditions that favored him taking 4/34 in the first innings and 3/21 in the second innings where he was nearly unplayable.​
 
Sheesh! That was a good recovery after the first innings debacle. Full credit to the bowlers of either side to make it an interesting match which the margin of difference (207 runs) fails to show.
 
Just had a look at the great Charlie Turner's bowling figures:

Code:
Player               Overs   Mdns    Runs   Wkts      E/R    Wds    NBs
Charlie Turner       11.0      4       9      2      0.82     1      0

Giving away just 8 runs off the bat and picking up two wickets in the process of bowling 11 overs is an amazing effort to say the least.
 
Ouch ! it hurts !:p Good fight by Arjuna Ranatunga all the mistake was in batting , 1st innings , Australia 1st innings was also bad ,Lanka very bad .:(
 
Bad performance by M Sathasivam .

When he was at his peak during the start of the tournament, you left him out. Now he's lost that form..
And also, no 7 is not the right place for a legendary batsman.

Actually Celtic Beer use to controll Sri Lanka and he used to make him play but when he got banned and I joined this league , I didn't knew that he was in squad .:p
