The longer format, the more will teams like Pakistan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka struggle in countries like Australia and SA.

[mastermind_quad]

Aussies under pressure now ..2 wides in this over

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

[mrk]

Mattew and Malinga should keep playing as they were doing few overs ago. Nnot like last over.

Long way to go ...but it seams possible @ the moment

Omg.ODI cricket is becoming exciting as we have seen in the 2 matches between paksitan and saffer, and now aus and sl.

 

[Eagle_Eye]

Maling's been watching Razzak!!.....

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

[Amjid Javed]

The 1st six by Malinga was a monster hit!

 

[Amjid Javed]

Cool heads needed by both sides here! Sri Lanka look slight favourites at moment!

 

[mastermind_quad]

another 200 up ...and what a 50 for Mathews

 

[Amjid Javed]

40 needed from 75 balls...

So Sri lanka dont need to take any risks really!

 

[mastermind_quad]

39 req from 12 overs

 

[Noman]

the way Aus is playing there have no chance in ashes?

Bollinger is the only good bowler ... I do not rate Johnson that highly.

 

[IAJ]

What are the Aussie bowlers doing? I thought the match was over by now. SL clearly favourites now and a no. 10 is batting superbly.

 

[mastermind_quad]

94 runs partnership @ 7.42

 

[asifp]

what a fightback

 

[mastermind_quad]

this Inning is worth watching really....

 

[pak-admirer]

great comeback from sl

 

[Garuda]

Malinga is doing an Ishant. Aussies must be remembering Mohali now.

 

[asifp]

Australia are major chokers now.

 

[asifp]

Michael Clarke looks like someone stole all his money

 

[Maula Jutt]

Wow what a fighback!

The last time I switched on the TV, Sri Lanka were 8 out with a score of 112, chasing a target of 240 and I was like, meh they've lost this one. Switched off the TV.

I just surf back to the channel now and whoa, they're at 211??!

 

[Amjid Javed]

Current partnership 105 runs, 14.5 overs, RR: 7.07 (Malinga 46, Mathews 50)

Sri lanka have fought back amazingly here!

 

[asifp]

MAlinga doing funny things with his bat, spot fixing, hahah

 

[pak-admirer]

3 good close games in 4-5 days

2nd and 3rd ODI between Pak and SA
and now the 1st ODI between Aus and SL

 

[Maula Jutt]

Annoying white birds

 

[Sakss]

crap i stopped watching when they were 7 down

 

[Sakss]

shot matthews

 

[cric_fan82]

16 more needed! come on mathews!

 

[Maula Jutt]

They are 226/8 right now.

 

[Maula Jutt]

50 for Malinga

 

[Sakss]

well played slingaa

 

[Maula Jutt]

Australia really has lost it. I foresee an Ashes whitewash. England will have this team for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

 

[Down2Earth]

aussies got owned. The bowlers coming through don't look special at all.

 

[Maula Jutt]

I am now quite convinced that Australia's good luck charm till now was Ponting's grandma. As she has passed away, things will only get more difficult for the Aussies here on.

 

[Eagle_Eye]

Incredible result for SL..... what a performance by Malinga and Mathews....


The future looks bleak for Aus... they are fast becoming Pakistan!!

 

[Maula Jutt]

Scores are even.

 

[hamzie]

ahahhaahahhaahahhaahahhaahahhaahahhaahahhaahahhaahahha

 

[muchacho]

RUN OUT!! damn it

 

[Maula Jutt]

Malinga run out. Stupid of them to take risky runs.

 

[Amjid Javed]

What Drama!

Could we have a tie!

Or will murali win it for Sri Lanka?

 

[hamzie]

MURALI has to face
LLOOLOLOLOLOL

 

[Maula Jutt]

Tight match. Lose one wicket and game's even. Score one run and win.

 

[Maula Jutt]

Why are these idiots taking such risks?

 

[Amjid Javed]

Murali to face Watson!

If Sri lanka bottle this now lol!

 

[Maula Jutt]

SL winss!!!!

 

[Amjid Javed]

After being so composed all inns Matthews and Malinga make a **** of it!

 

[ace4rmspace]

That ... my friends ... is how it's done.
