SL vs IND WC 2011 Final!!
« on: April 02, 2011, 08:36:58 AM »
Morning all,
Predictions for the game and who you are supporting? Seeing as my family come from Sri Lanka, I will be supporting SL :)
I guess this thread would provide an opportunity for a sort-of 'running commentary' on the game.
Cheers,

Sri Lanka must be happy with that move

The first cricket box was used in 1874.  The first cricket helmet was introduced in 1974. So, it took 100 years for men to twig that their brains were also worth protecting.

Is it me or do the Sri Lankans seem like an Asian version of Australia. They always strike me as better fielders (than India/Pakistan) and they always seem a well drilled side, whoever plays. They rarely seem to perform poorly and don't strike me as fragile mentally as India/Pakistan, who seem to lose the plot sometimes when the pressure is on.

I know Reds..!!! :D
And Nick, your comparison is a valid point. We will see how the game turns out though I feel - there isn't much pressure on SL :) cause everyone in India has said they've won already, and so there is ridiculous pressure on them (bottling is possible) - could be a SL chance to seize the iniative and capitalise on India's nervousness, if there is any... :)

India mentally fragile? Maybe in the 70s, 80s and early 90s. Not anymore.

Sri Lanka mentally stronger? They should try playing outside Asia once in a while...

Previn I think it is one of the longest National Anthems  :-[ but at least it's upbeat :D
And Tom, do we know if CKS is wearing the Ayrtek?
Easy Jeet.... ;) - All I said as that there would be a lot of pressure on them...
Damn 1 down :(


Ignore the Ayrtek Question as he is in now so I will see :)
