What do you mean it's an awfully easy start for Australia. Sri Lanka has some of the most exciting and dangerous players going around today. Sure are a much better team to watch then New Zealand.

Early <> easy

Lol fail

And NZ v Australia ODI matches are some of the best games to watch. The test matches are pretty boring though.

No test matches?

Its an Ashes summer, only Ashes tests. Has only been 2 years since SL had tests here anyway.

 

[Max Peters]

2 years is along time. I'd sure like to see Sri Lanka's current test squad take on Australia.

That too in Sri Lanka. Would like to see how Aussies play Sri Lankan spinners in Lanka.

And this my friends, is what you call a biased fearsome tweak

SL was pretty disappointing in their last series in AUS. They may have a good chance this time though.. specially AUs without Gillycrist - the Lankan destroyer.

And this my friends, is what you call a biased fling

you're to make judgements 88 all-out :sarcasm

 

[angryangy]

ding.

This series is really an important build to World Cup. The both are winners and runners up and Lanka in Aussie condition, really interesting to see how they cope up.

Not heard of Srilanka playing anybody else then India from past 2 years.

It all started with 2008 Asia Cup and ended this year at Asia Cup..Or no... The Tri Series
