How soon before these hit and giggles are over and we can get into the Test series against the Indians?
Excellent finish by lanka ! Mahela once again showing his class ! Should be an interesting chase
I've seen Marsh play quite a bit now, and I think he is mediocre at this level, always fails to impress give the chances he has had. Talking of mediocre this batting line up is one hell of a joke!
He's not mediocre at ODI level.
At international T20s yes because he's not suited to scoring quickly from the start of the innings.
Sri Lanka shouldn't have taken so long to bowl a ball.

Lankans are smart in exploiting the loopholes. The randiv no ball incident, the captaincy incident with Sanga coming out for the toss, etc. Today was a admittedly in bad taste but Warner and wade are expert whingers. They can't handle that they got trolled.
Btw just got to know that Mathews was captaining the t20 side
Honestly who do you think will be making the decisions in such a tense finish?
Mathews also said f*** off to Maxwell so donno what you're trying to say.
Completely agree with your point on wade and Warner they are both sooks. Maxwell well too is far from an angel but he had right to tell them to hurry up
Don't see anything wrong with what SL did (admittedly I don't actually know how long they took as wasn't watching live). All teams start slowing things down to take some momentum away from the batting side, or even to let the bowler re-focus and relax. After being hit for 2 consecutive fours, it seemed the sensible thing to do.
And it worked.
Now if a Asian brother said the above we'd get a bollocking from whinging users.
They took about 4 minutes.
Teams always take that long to bowl the last ball in a t20 match, adds to the drama. Maxwell showed his nerves by getting wound up and then cried like a child when he missed out.
Australia used to produce tough, no nonsense sportsmen.
Look the issue that we see from the replays is that maxwell says " come on and ball already" and MJ replies F off. Agreed Warner and wade are both sooks but a player of MJs experience shouldn't pop like that. Maxwell has also tweeted that the Sri Lankans have apologized to him "for going over the top".
Also while I know this is a cheap shot its funny to hear a person who supports a side containing Stuart broad telling others to calm down and get on with the game
Feel free to criticise Stuart Broad, I'm not denying he has massive strops. I was just stating that Maxwell should have stayed calm and Sri Lanka did nothing wrong. Also Australia really cant complain about being told to **** off, they've given so often they should be able to take it.
Jawardene has a track record of doing stuff like this, when it happens against Pakistan are we all up in arms. Take some time but not that much. The fact that after 5 min no changes in the field were made proves he did it too stall the batsman

LOL 5 mins? Stop making stuff up aye. It was just a couple of mins. That's fairly common in those sorts of tense situations.
Just to clarify... I apologized to Mahela and SL players as well. I have a good friendship with Mahela, and it's gonna stay that way!
Absolutely shattered... I went into the Sri Lankan rooms after and they apologised for going over the top. All good. Time for Perth ODIs
Any way what's up with D/L. SL made 161 off 20 (8 runs per over) and after the rain Aus was given a target of just 122 off 15 (also 8 runs per over) with full 6 overs of powerplays and all their wickets in tact. That's just completely fluffed up. No way that is even remotely fair. It should have been at least another 15 runs on top of that.
Lol I admit time goes slower while you are watching the game , looking back at the replay I feel like a fool, but I still reckon my point of MJ stands. Im a fan of Sri Lankan cricket, the only player I dislike of yours is dilshan but MJ was really dissapointing in this scenario
Duckworth Lewis is just not suited to the T20 over game.
