WC2007: Super 8

You never know what you could get from either sides. Could be quite a good and exciting match.
 
Go England, go and beat arrogant minnows :cool:

Bangladesh are likely to find conditions here different from the slow, low pitch that allowed them to stifle South Africa in Guyana on Saturday. Bell broke into a smile at the thought of the England pace attack bowling to young batsmen raised to play off the front foot.

Happy news for England :cheers
 
And good news for NZ fans and probably Aussie fans. Malinga is out of at least these 2 games.

Ankle Tear. It's obviously a shame for Sri Lanka and Malinga, he's going to be out for the biggest 2 games of the Super8's, but hey, we've had our fair share, it's about time other sides have players out for a while ;)

Oh that's so unfair. Why the hell couldn't he be injured for the game against us? :)

Mind you, I doubt it would have made any difference...
 
Whos playing tonight? I can look it up, but I'm too lazy! ;)

Malinga out! Yes! (From an Aussie point of view), now SL will have nothing for us;)
 
Bangladesh should be looking for Ashraful and Aftab Ahmed to fire to have any chances of winning against England.

It'll still be good in some ways, because they're forced to test their depth; someone new will have to step up and unlike, for example, the West Indies, they won't be throwing their rookies in the deep end. Maharoof is a well proven performer who would likely get the first choice, but Bandara is an underrated leggie who really should come into play if conditions call for his inclusion. Additionally, Sri Lanka can expect to have Malinga fit for when it counts, so they may be able to mount a sneak attack on whoever has gotten the least practice against him.

As for Bangladesh, the only change they should make is to bring in Shariah Nafees for Javed Omar. He's had the opener's curse throughout this tournament, but if he can survive the early overs, he will be able to test England far more.
