With Australia racing away to another victory against South Africa today. On 30th September half way through Australia's innings, Premadasa was brimming with the colors green and blue.
Its about 6:30 pm in the evening, 5 overs still to go, the stadium now gets to fill in and fans from the Asian Subcontinent flock and flood through the gates.
There are flags of India and Pakistan all across the ground. The skies seem clear at the very moment with no chance of rain.
When walking through the gates, I saw a South African selling a shirt which said "I Back the Pak" on a green background.
There are news running around that the Indian team is already in the stadium, the media room buzzing. No signs of Pakistan team yet.
The stage is set and the players raring to go. The tempo is built up right away and as one poster rightly said, this truly is El Classico of Cricket.
