[Sean]

A single takes him to 97. I'm sooo nervous.

 

[Oxy]

Is that a dropped catch by keeper?

 

[desidudecool]

[Sean]

Dropped.

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

[Sean]

Thank god for that. Gilly nearly goes out. And PP nearly jinxes a batsman once again.

SIX! Haydos top edges it and it goes aaaall the way for six. Lucky there. All power.

 

[Oxy]

How did Hayden hit that for 6???

Looked like he skied it.

Thats what those shoulders are about......

 

[Uzzy]

Malinga hit back over his head for a six!

 

[iZeeshan]

Surprisingly enough, the powerplay has reduced the over rate!

 

[Easa]

Hayden with a brutal, straight 6.

 

[12thMan]

Mark Nicholson on the verge of an orgasm.

is he sitting on Botham's lap or the other way around? it is exciting time and people need to be held

as Hayden hits a six

 

[Rob H]

Another straight 4 to bring up the 100 for Gilchrist

 

[Uzzy]

[Uzzy]

[Straight Bat]

[Sean]

OUT! NO! Sangakarra said no. That was out. That was out. Nope. Dropped.

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

good sportsmanship by sangakarra

 

[Oxy]

Gilly caught?

Sangakara doesnt claim it.

Well done sir.

Great effort - very sporting.

 

[iZeeshan]

Oh boy, thought that was out! Such honor from Sanga!

 

[Sean]

Massive leading edge which goes to third man. 1 bounce.

 

[Oxy]

Another 'hoick' - just falls short of the fielder on the boundary.

149-0!!!!

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

149/0 brutal runs

 

[12thMan]

sangakara indicates the ball didn't carry or couldn't hang on. well done by him

 

[iZeeshan]

Hit high in the air, falls safe.

 

[Oxy]

Waiting for Botham to mention a certain 'Salim Yousuf' from 1987....

 

[OZGOD]

Why did I pick so many S Lankan bowlers today for my fantasy cricket???

I forgot to get rid of all the Saffas in my team...

 

[Uzzy]

Vaas hit for a four now and Nicholas continues his orgasm.

 

[Sean]

What a pull shot! Not that short and Gilly rocks back
150 for the Aussies.

 

[iZeeshan]

Sangakarra could have easily claimed he caught that. Come on God! Help the Lankans!

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

licks licks licks

 

[Oxy]

Man - Gilly must be possessed!

WHat a shot for 4.

All bowlers being brutally punished here

 

[OZGOD]

Brutal stuff at the moment from Gilly.

 

[Sean]

OG! There you are! Where have you been!?!

 

[Oxy]

Bowling falling to bits. NOw a wide from Vaas.

150 up

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

real **** bowling by vaas

 

[aliff]

'SL ki kima bana rahe hae'

 

[Shoaib Akhtar's Fan]

Another superb shot by Gilly followed by four wides

 

[Oxy]

OG! There you are! Where have you been!?!

Ive been to London to visit the Queen

 

[Sean]

Pulled, four, legend!

 

[Shoaib Akhtar's Fan]

Another four.. wow

 

[Uzzy]

Another four! Everything falling apart for SL here!

 

[Shayan]

Sri Lanka wilting here....

 

[12thMan]

a wide for four down the legside. now only Jayasuriya can save SL

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

this is more brutal than against india

 

[Straight Bat]

SL have lost the plot.

 

[Oxy]

Hey guys - we have Imran Farhat to look foward to soon.....

 

[iZeeshan]

Terrible, terrible bowling from Vaas! Wow! 13 runs off the first 2 balls!

 

[OZGOD]

This is a crazy run rate at the moment.

 

[Uzzy]

So far it seems to be yet another one sided final...

 

[iZeeshan]

Maybe we'll see a Jayasuria special. Yea that's it. A Jayasuria special.

 

[Sean]

I cant wait to download this match and put it on DVD!

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

a wide for four down the legside. now only Jayasuriya can save SL

hardly think so..auss are fired up will be difficult to get away

 

[Faisal Akhtar]

Mark Nicholson is officially the most annoying commentator in the world, the guy is making Botham sound good.

 

[dinakar]

Sub-continet teams are 'graced' by Aussies in the finals successively. so next chance is of Bangladesh's

 

[OZGOD]

I just switched it on - had to go house hunting today of all days. What's the pitch like? I heard it rained?

 

[JammydodgA]

 

[Sean]

Gilly signalling hi 5?

 

[iZeeshan]

Gilly CAN get 200 at this point. Very possible.

However, I really hope Jayasuria does it. I won't even mind that.
