[Purbasha T]

Unlucky Afrididi.

Well bowled Mamalinga.

[Zeeshan]

Game over.

[al-Sagar]

i remember a similar game. SA were cruising needed 2-3 runs with 5 wickets in hand and lots of balls left.

malinga got 4 in 5 balls and somehow no 10 survived his last ball. then SA won it next over

[Murad]

Please someone PM me the LPIN for BC fantasy league

I think I sent you one to your email. Did you check it?

[al-Sagar]

actually poor thinking by razzaq.... as it was last over by malinga should have not expose asif even for the last ball.

anyway happy to see SL win over pakistan

[_Rafi_]

I think I sent you one to your email. Did you check it?

I didnt get any email. Now I get the pin anyway

[simon]

Hurray!

Hats off.

[Nafi]

:lol: so many awards

[al-Sagar]

so many awards .............

it will be nice to see some BD players getting some awards tomorrow

[_Rafi_]

Malinga put his best efforts to destruct Pak. He achieved his highest runs and best bowling figure. What an allrounder!

[al-Sagar]

butt speaks good englishh

[al-Sagar]

Amar TP century marse...ki moja ki moja

MOM o pailo. apni to ajke laal e laal

[simon]

That's what teams like BD & India lack of,a destructive bowler who can snatch victories under such circumstances.

[al Furqaan]

why ODIs are better than t20s all days of the week.

enought time to build an innings and make comebacks...very back and forth match this.

what ODI cricket needs are more 230 wickets, and fewer 350 wickets. no one should score 300+ unless through magical batting or against a rank minnow.

[Neel Here]

congrats to malinga and his team, not to forget matthews.

[bujhee kom]

Congratas Sri-Lanka!! Lasith Malinga that is!!

very true,agreed!
ODI is the best place to test a bowler or a batsman.
And love to see recovering from early losses & a counter attack.

[Tiger444]

congratz 2 the lankans..they held their nerve and came up with the win..a deserved victory 4 them..
