New Zealand tour of Sri Lanka, 2009

Very mature. In crunch ODI games SL has pretty much wiped the floor with NZ ala WC 2003/WC2007 and of course the recent 20/20. I understand that people are genuinely supportive of their own teams but to state SL are nillers at ODIs is just plain riddiculous. It was 2-2 the last time we toured NZ and that was after NZ were leading 2-0.

Be objective and logical in arguments not just blatantly one sided.

you are talking to the wrong person charith .. trust me, i know

dilshan 2 from 8 balls :eek:
 
Exactly, you should be talking to this diaskasun guy instead.

Don?t push it mate, I have not insulted you personally like u insulted me by calling me, you know what. You don?t talk to me about cricket because you don?t have any idea who are you talking with and for the last time DO NOT INSULT ME showing your true qualities to every one..

going is little bit slow,, maybe some one told dilshan that he is playing a test match and finally :banana2
 
Well this game is over. Sri Lanka 600-5 after five sessions?

I don't really care if this pitch is a dustbowl, Patel's rubbish and he shouldn't be anywhere near the team. Oram meh, Franklin's been going pretty well in domestic cricket.

From cricinfo.

Simon: "Oram had a terrible IPL and hasn't played test match cricket or even first class since god knows when. Franklin got one series against the Indians and looked ok - however the entire team was dominated. Then he goes and gets bags of runs in the County Championship. And he provides a better bowling option...In the last three years Oram has scored at 26.15 and has two hundreds - one against Bangladesh and the other a horrifically scratchy performance at Lords. He also has only one 50 in this time for a total return of 497 runs in three years. Not good enough for a "batting allrounder

Simon doesn't like Oram :laugh

pitch is not that bad, there is more thing for the faster bowlers ... if lanks score 600/5 match will ended up in a draw by the way.

well well well first one down 9 to go
 
Second ball, whoooo. Hopefully we can get Dilshan before he gets going.
 
Actually Vettori's bowling pretty nice and Oram is keeping it tight. I'd back Vettori to get a nice bag maybe with Patel chipping in provided he bowls well.
 
Just saw the brief highlights, what with these SL batsmen going so aggressive? Whenever I see the highlights one of them are playing in T20 fashion.
 
Congrats Daniel Vettori, the first left arm spinner to pick up 300 test wickets. Good player to bring the record up against too.
 
NZ is in control for now. i really think SL should play their natural game.. its just the first day wicket. Daniel Vettori is real good.. so underated if u ask me

No way we got 3 wickets!? I thought you said we were dreaming and if we did they would be all run out. These two will probably ending up make a ton each, but please I don't give a ████ if you were a Sri Lanka first class player, you act like a 7 year old kid that knows nothing better than to brag about how good his team is.

Was there any need for this rant? Have I missed something?

Regardless, great job Vettori, glad to see him reach that landmark, and become the first Left arm spinner to do it.
 
If we can just pick up one more wicket where in with a chance here, Sri Lanka's tail is fairly long to say the least.

whats your problem man ... did i hurt your friend or something ,, , you probobly have misunderstood one of my comments on something or being motivated by some one who have a problem with me. In any way please be respectful so that I can respect you back. Yes I was a fast class cricketer and I take pride in that. But in this forum I believe every one is equal and I respect others wives. don’t be so rude just because you can but think about it, its never nice when others being rude to you.. I am not reporting your rude comments because it’s the first time you had something like this to say.. hope this will be the last to.. chill man! ;)
