Sri Lanka in West Indies

Wow, what a match. Easily one of the best in recent times. Probably a tougher scenario for Chanders than there was for Miandad (if you forget that it was India for a minute). Chanderpaul is such a gun.
 
so many players would have choked and failed in that situation but this guy kept so cool, don't know how he managed to withstand the pressure in that situation. the full toss from Vaas did help too.
 
But boy, Mendis is going to be something very special. I reckon in a few years, we could be saying Murali who?

4 wickets and 36 runs but I would have given it to Chanders.

Kapu deserved it to be honest, he dug his team out a huge hole.

supposedly Chanders was ill before the match and didn't recover fully but he still played that kind of innings.
 
Sensational stuff... What did Vaas do? Must haunt him for quite some time to give a six off the last ball of the game when the opposition needs exactly the same amount of runs to win the match. it is said that Chetan Sharma was not exactly the same after that fateful six off Miandad
 
They say mendis is the next Mulari. Is he that good?

he has great potential, hes run up is a little different from conventional off spinners and so is his action but he already has a bunch of variations and looks to be strong mentally. his domestic record is brilliant in both forms of the game he has all the tools to be a great spin bowler but it was his 1st international match so it might be early to say, I cant wait to see him in his 1st test and see how he does there.
 
I think Its early days for him.He looked good as far as First match is concerned.I think Murli has some Great abilities to turn the Bowl where He looks more intelligent bowler.
Though He has lots of thing which he need to learn. He needs to make his Dosra more Effective. He needs to correct his length.
But I think He is a learner and will be good prospect for Srilanka but better than Murli,I don?t think.

He's not played much domestic cricket, but the cricket he has played has been magnificent, an average of 14 in FC cricket, 11 in List A and 3 wickets on ODi debut. He has all the variations, and looks a fantastic talent, Sri Lanka look to have some good future in the bowling department, it's just the batting that could be a problem. I've not been overly impressed with Chamara Silva and the other youngsters in the side haven't been brilliant, although Kapugedara's innings yesterday was pretty fantastic.
 
You what? What does Silva lack to you?
 
Ha ha..lol..
Now Mob is seriously hurt..Because someone has mentioned C Silva and that also when he has scored in last Match.
Though apart from Joke you will ask then i would say I'll go with C Silva not because he is master but because I don't see any better player in Srilankan Domestic now.I am not following so closely like Dare but i have seen some Tamil Vs Preident 11 matches highlights.And I don't think Srilanka have better option.
Only My concerned is consistency.How Much C Silva has scored after world cup till this series?
