Final.

[Fusion]

If he gets enough of the strike and bats through, yeah. He'd need at least 30 balls though, you'd think.

Well he's making the most of his strikes. 6 and 4 in consecutive balls.

 

[pup11]

SL has simply lost it and they are just going through the motions atm!

 

[nightprowler10]

Sanath keeps trying to bowl at his feet and keeps getting it horribly wrong.

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

What the hell is wrong with Jayasuriya? For gentle off-spin, that's unforgivable. Two absolute shockers, and not the first time this spell either.

Gilchrist closing in on 150 now, still 9 overs left.

 

[Dissector]

Looks like game over. One of the all-time great ODI innings here by Gilchrist.

 

[andmark]

Can gilchrist hit 200?

It's looking possible.

 

[simmy]

Considering the innings and the magnitude of this game... this has already got to be one of the great ODI knocks.

Recent overs 6 1 . . . 1 | 4 1 2 1 . 1 | . 1 1 1lb 6 4 | 1 1

 

[JBH001]

Im afraid, very afraid. So much for a contest, its like 99 and 03 all over again.

(Though the fact that its Gilly makes it a little easier to bear)

I wish I had gone to bed now at 3.45am - as it is, now I have to try to forget.

 

[simmy]

Symonds and Clarke in next lol. No chance unless Jaya can get 200.

 

[Alysum]

you know what ? this is the PERFECT time for Gilly to retire from ODIs to end on a high note and give Brad Haddin a chance to take over so he can prepare for tests later.

Seriously, stop it now.

Definitely one of the all-time great WC, if not ODI in general, knocks by Gilly. His ridden his luck for all its worth and is doing a great job! Showing why he'll be irreplaceable.

Well I take you want SL to win.

 

[nightprowler10]

Jeez, 50 partnership already.

 

[GGG]

Have to agree, this is the best ODI knock I have ever seen. He will get a double if he is there at the end.

I thought it would keep track.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Wish you feckers would stop trying to jinx Gilly!

Him versus the current ODI record is a close to a contest as we're going to get today.

 

[Burgey]

With three drops already, he better.

Don't think he's made them pay yet?

 

[Trigger_Tiger]

.....

Double Nelson!

 

[Alysum]

Dreadful bowling the lankans down the leg side all the time...

Gilly out ! well done
