Default Test is drawn... :(

SL Deserved to win this test... Stupid rain...

Sri Lanka 331 & 226
England 235 & 210/9 (108.0 ov)

It was an all win situation... and I am sure Muralitharan wud have taken a 2nd 5-wkt haul... This guy is amazing... His figures (Overs, Maidens, runs, wkts):

1st Inn: 31.4, 15, 46, 7
2nd Inn: 37, 18, 47, 4

That's amazingly economic bowling even for a test match!!! He will soon surpass Walsh and I hope only for his best. And oh this guy is one of the most unorthodox batsmen to have ever walked the international cricket arena... He gets usefull runs though... He even has a 50... i whirlwind innings that was!!!

Surprisingly Tilekaratne cudnt click as a batsman... I hope to see him batting well in the 2nd test... he is a great batsman... The current SL lineup is awesome... without any doubt...
