good batting by Ghambi, hitting a boundary in every over.

Dilshan also converted from Islam to Budhism.

Anyways no need to comment on their reason, same can be said abt Mohd Yousuf aka Yousuf Youhana. Even Indian Legend A.R. Rehman is convert, he was hindu earlier.
 
Regarding MS Dhoni promoting himself up the order,here are a couple of theories.

BBC Test Match Special's Jonathan Agnew

"Considering the form Yuvraj is in - and the form Dhoni is in - his promotion is quite surprising." (Michael Vaughan speculates whether it's to keep a left-hand/right-hand combination - or whether it was a "batsman in the toilet" scenario like Ramnaresh Sarwan with the West Indies in that recent game!)
 
Thissera can surprise the batters, so they need to be watchful

His best was against us in Damboola 5 for 28
 
Pathetic bowling from Perera. Him and Kulasekera have been bowling pies all night long
 
Randhiv, Malinga and Murali combined have 15 overs to bowl. That's scary

sri lanka were too defensive after sachin fell

33 for 2 and you let them score at 5+ an over for the next 15 overs...thats just crap strategy
 
Amazing batting by India so far. To absorb the pressure and still keep the run rate manageable is unbelievable.
 
Ravibot please control urself. We are still far away from being in comfortable position.
 
Rather have Munaf Patel score a match-winning century than Dhoni. Won't be able to handle the millions of stupid adverts.
"I'm Dhoni I am clinical finisher so when you have an accident and end up in a clinic...Don't delay claim today!" :afridi
 
Sri Lanka has been India's bunny in the last couple of years specially . India were the best team in the competition and played like champions . The day they beat Pakistan , they sealed the World Cup .
 
I think India are leaving the hitting for too late, Sri Lanka has the best record in death overs, they get the most wickets and many teams have experienced a collapse through the hands of Malinga and Murali
 
Don know what srilanka are upto. Its pity thay have only 2 quality bowlers rest are jsut avg. MALING n MURLI are the danger ones....

hope Murli strikes asap to get srilanka back into the game cuz its too easy for ind now. no pressure being put and they are bowling bad balls and easy singles available....wish srilanka out smarts them and creates chanes
 
My comment is published in Cricinfo!!!

Mojo: "Regarding Poonam comments: Doesnt deserve the attention she's getting. Its just a sordid gimmick for cheap publicity by a wannabe starlet."

Well, we cannot afford to hit now. But the last 7-8 overs will be fascinating cricket.
 
India's match to lose from here really. Sri Lankan fielding and bowling has not lived up to its expectation
