    Selectors should pick Atapattu Over Tharanga

    Wow so many of you don't know about Atapattu's odi status. He's one of the most successful odi openers ever produced by SL. Him and Jayasuriya were great at the top of the order. I think they have a 50+ average together. Maybe the selectors should give him a shot in the match against IReland...

    Black Caps accused of racism

    If there is one thing that history has shown us it is that racism is often accompanied by some lame excuse justifying it.

    Intro to Cricket

    You guys are doing a fantastic job of explaining the game in clear language. One thing that I'd like to point out to Moe is that there is no limit to the number of overs in a test match. Basically the side that is bowling has to bowl as many deliveries as it needs to until: It gets all the...

    Group B - Sri Lanka, India, Bangladesh, Bermuda

    In the end it turned out to be an excellent score. I am glad to see the arrogant Indians finally put in their place. I hope Sri Lanka go onto to win this World Cup.

    Group B - Sri Lanka, India, Bangladesh, Bermuda

    Well there is one difference with Mahela this year and that is that he is making a major contribution as a captain. The guy has got to be the smartest SL captain since Ranatunga.

    Group B - Sri Lanka, India, Bangladesh, Bermuda

    I very much doubt that the SL selectors are ever going to rest four key players in one match. They're rather conservative in that regard and although we have seen them resting one or two players in recent matches I don't think they will go so far as to rest 4 players. And Arnold is not...

    Muralitharan - javelin thrower

    Don't know about Smith or Crowe but I think Ranil Abainayake is a better Sri Lankan commentator than Fernando. Still this whole Murali controversy needs to be buried. Its become very boring now. :blink: Bedi is just jealous.

    X-Factor ... who would you pick.

    Boucher. He's the most gutsy cricketer in the world.

    Muralitharan - javelin thrower

    Group B - Pakistan, South Africa, New Zealand, Sri Lanka

    And they had Abdurrazzaq. SL just doesn't have any big hitters in the tail. But I think SL will win over SA because SL is the better side at the moment. Also they beat SA at home in the test series 2-0. I SL have this match covered.

    richie benaud's greatest 11

    Ok too lazy to read the whole thread. All I know is that benaud has an anti-sri lankan bias. Why do I say that? Well I believe it was EA Cricket 1997 in which benaud said something to the effect that Sri Lanka only won the world cup in 96 because of their political troubles scaring off the...

    best wicketkeeper

    Kaluwitharna was very good. I believe he had a record for most stumpings or something. Ian Healy was good too.
