I can't help but open this, so here we go.

2nd Test: Sri Lanka v England at Colombo (SSC) - Dec 9-13, 2007

Match scheduled to begin at 10:30 local time (05:00 GMT)

This is my SL team for this match,

Tharanga
Vandort
Sangakkara
Jayawardena M
Silva
Dilshan
Jayawardena P
Vaas
Malinga
Fernando
Murali

This squad has not been announced yet, but I really really want that Mubarak out of the team who is going under his daddy's money. If I can I would go shoot this sucker down. Dilshan is so much better and I would love to see him back in the team or Kapugedera for that matter. Or even Warnapura or Udawatha or Dilruwan Perera (though they are top order batsmen)

One thing Muba can do is field but even in that position DIlshan would beat him miles ahead. I think we need a good proven bowler now that we don't have Jayasuriya as the 5th option. So Dilshan is the ideal replacement or Warnapura who can bowl.

Good luck Srilanka. Couldn't wait to see Sangakkara making another doubles and more cheap english wickets for murali. By the way i am very sad i wouldn't be able to watch my most favorite players Jaysuriya in test cricket

Dude, your time has come Mubarak is on the field and doing a good job to help Murali to reach the unreachable peak. Wait and see Srilanka, he has more.

I switched off the TV when I saw Malinga attempt to bowl. Its terrible that the ICC and Sri Lankan cricket cannot teach this talented individual the rules of the game. Murali was proven to have a birth defect. Thats Fine. But Malinga is atrocious. The South African Johan Botha, is just as bad. It ruins the game. I feel sorry for Malinga, because he is doing what he knows, and obviously does not realise his transgression. But the authorities are not doing thier job. Botha should be kicked out of the game. His chucking is intentional. You can see it on his face.

Did you realize that with Malinga's action it's almost impossible to throw?

England 351 all out. Vass takes 2 wickets while Malinga get three. I guess everyone knows who have taken the rest 5. Nothing new in that. hmm Whats new? No jayasuriya up there in the SL line up. Vandort and tharanga have opened. 12/0 after 3 overs.

MohammedC · #8 December 10, 2007, 03:48 AM

Srilanka lost their first wicket Tharanga out

20/1

Congrats Mahela for joining 7000 runs club. He becomes the first SL batsmen to achieve that.

Kabir · #10 December 11, 2007, 03:49 PM

SL now leads with 28 runs, with 6 wickets to spare, at the end of day 3.

Mubarak is doing @@@@!!!!!!..... Even Dilhara Fernando has scored more runs than this freaking idiot... If they wont give Dilshan or Warnapura a place in the next test instead of this moron..It'll be official..The band of muppets controlled by the Joker (according to the very words of Marven Atapattu

) are in the payroll of Mubarak's dad...
