lol. sorry about the all nighters, adharcric. I am hoping to pull off a few during the Indian tour of Windies. The stuff we have to give up to watch cricket, it's crazy, isn't it?

So if England won you will treat it like any other series or Natwest Series win?

I enjoyed the knock-out format. Short and sweet.

Seriously, why would anyone with any sort of passion for cricket do that? Would you?

I hope SL rest Vaas and Murali for the Preliminary round and perhaps Sangakkara for some of the preliminary games.

This would give Bandara and Lokuaaratchchi to be selected in the same 11 as well as more games along with Ruchira Perera, Zoysa in the preliminary games.

So for the qualifying games, I would go with -

Tharanga
Jayasuriya
Jayawardene
Sangakkara/ (Prasanna J - If Prasanna then drops to No 9)
Dilshan
Kapugedera
Arnold/Lokuaaratchi
Bandara
Zoysa
Dilhara Fernando
Ruchira Perera/ Malinga

Wouldn't Underestimate NZ at all especially in OD's. A very strong team.. i choose them ahead of South Africa for that match..

Edit: Are you talking about the Mumbai thing, after the bombings or South Africa itself..

Well really it depends what team comes out to play and whether or not John Bracewell makes the right selections. In saying that, it wouldn't suprise me if NZ blew away South Africa.
