The scheduling is an insult to Caribbean audiences....

They play a men's match at 11.30am, and then that's followed by a women's semi.

All because the ICC is pandering to TV audiences....

Caribbean crowds would prefer it to be the other way around. So, if TV audiences matter more to the ICC than those going thru the turnstyles, then I hope St Lucians stay away from the semis in droves.

Think the final is scheduled for the same time.

If we bat first, that is. If we bowl first, i'll miss the whole game as it won't take long to chase 13.

Pathetic delivery from Bresnan to start. Mahela couldn't have asked for a nicer delivery to start his innings with.

It really isn't nice watching Jayasuriya atm. Just needs to be put out of his misery, his eye has clearly gone. Nice delivery from Sid though.

Yeah, didn't get a great deal of pleasure from that wicket, and don't think it affects the game much.

Unlike that one, great catch from that bloke.

Honestly, this WC is so dull.......completely opposite from the one in Eng. Even the one in SA was pretty good.

Both Semi's should have been played on Saturday, and the final on Sunday to maximize crowds. Its just very poor management.

Couple more quick wickets would really put the dog amongst the pigeons

What a start from Stuart Broad. Comes in, first ball bowls a jaffer to the in-form batsman in the tournament, and Sri Lanka are 26-3. Brilliant.

Wow, Dilshan, Sanath, and Mahela, complete flops in the most important game.....so unlike Pakistan...

Fine SL, leave it to Pakistan alone once again to bring the Cup to Subcontinent! When will you guys learn to take some responsibility....

Sanga looks in prime form.

Fascinating our bowling attack, bowls a lot of crap balls, but takes wickets, showing that wickets count in 20/20, not negative bowling. Shows how far the game has come from dibbly-dobbers bowling nothing balls, Yardy excepted obviously.
