WT20 | Sri Lanka v West Indies | 1st Semi-Final | 3/04/14 Dhaka | Discussion thread

[Red Devil]

Toss in 5 mins

 

[Red Devil]

Sri Lanka win the toss and elect to bat first

 

[Gabbar Singh]

Sri Lanka have a long tail today because they've dropped Thisara

Kula Shaker will bat at 7 with Senanayake at 8. Then Prasanna, Herath and Malinga.

Wonder if Dilshan can fire today.

 

[dravid the wall]

why thiesara parera not playing

 

[Aman]

C'mon Lanka!

good start by Lanka.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

He could have easily put away the last two deliveries as well.

 

[OZGOD]

Lankans on fyahhh

 

[mosh101]

Dilshan giving badree a good phainta !

Thats how you bat against a mediocre bowler !

 

[Nikhil_cric]

. Go Lanka.

 

[Cricfan4eva]

Sri Lanka are targeting WI's main bowler in this tournament, Badree. Now thats how you shackle the opposition.

 

[Zeshan547]

I hope it is a high scoring nail biter, good start for sri lanka, but there is a lot of cricket to be played.

 

[Aman]

SL clearly scarred by 2012

 

[Adil_94]

Badree getting smashed and we made him look like Warne

Top batting here by dilshan !

Badree getting tonkeddd

 

[whatthewhat]

And that is why Sharjeel should've played

 

[MarkCooper]

Hoping for a big score so we can see some Gayle Force

 

[mosh101]

And our jokers were gifting wickets to him

 

[Adil_94]

Umar Amin even give Badree a phainta in West Indies last year.

[cricket geek]

Lanka smoking WI away .

 

[maddgenius]

Lankans making Badree look like a club bowler

 

[mosh101]

Play positive against someone like badree and he'll be rattled !

We missed a trick by not playing sharjeel in the entire tournament let alone the windies game !

 

[desi_launda]

West indies on the back foot

 

[Zeshan547]

Guys what is minimum score to defend for sri lanka here? And how many they will be able to get? Plz give your predictions.

 

[maddgenius]

And we didn't play Sharjeel

 

[Nikhil_cric]

SL dealing only es.

Live streaming anywhere?

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Lanka choking now. Are these WI rock stars that good?

 

[spiderreddy]

thirimanne in...tuk tuk time

 

[Extreme Pace]

SL squandered their good start

 

[cricket geek]

Run rate deeped to 7 an over .

 

[Bickers]

No Perera today so the tail starts at 7, so important not to lose early wickets but they threw them away.

Re: WT20 | Sri Lanka v West Indies | 1st Semi-Final | 3/04/14 Dhaka | Sri Lanka Inni

Dilshan holding one end.

 

[cricket geek]

Re: WT20 | Sri Lanka v West Indies | 1st Semi-Final | 3/04/14 Dhaka | Sri Lanka Inni

Thrimanne has to up his strike rate quickly .

 

[Mp812]

Sri Lanka 65/3 (10/20 ov) Game even after 10 overs

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Gayle bowling? .

 

[Zeshan547]

It's getting boring and boring

 

[Dragon]

Re: WT20 | Sri Lanka v West Indies | 1st Semi-Final | 3/04/14 Dhaka | Sri Lanka Inni

It's getting boring and boring

It's a sri lanka match haha

 

[Zeshan547]

I think sri lanka have the efficiency of australia and south africa but lack flair of India and Pakistan, a bit un-sub continental.

 

[Mp812]

As per CRICINFo comment : the first time bangladesh hosted a world event (1998 ICC Knockout), it was West Indies and South Africa who made it to the finals, while India and Sri Lanka who lost to them in the semi-finals .........Interesting

Meanwhile TM Dilshan run out 39 (39b 2x4 1x6) SR: 100.00

Re: WT20 | Sri Lanka v West Indies | 1st Semi-Final | 3/04/14 Dhaka | Sri Lanka Inni

Can they reach 160

 

[Gabbar Singh]

Gayle injured - hope he's okay to bat.

 

[Dragon]

Gayle hurt

 

[OZGOD]

Gayle's going off again? What a softkock! Stay in there mate it's a semifinal.

 

[EC666]

Sri Lanka can possibly defend 130, so they shouldn't panic too much. We know how prone to collapse WI are.

 

[OZGOD]

Woeful effort from Shamuels

 

[EC666]

Gayle's going off again? What a softkock! Stay in there mate it's a semifinal.

lol, Marlon Samuels is always running out people or injuring WI's best players.

Maybe it's a plan?

 

[OZGOD]

For a big bloke Gayle seems awfully fragile. Oh I've broken a fingernail! Let me come off!

 

[OZGOD]

Can SL put the pedal down now with 5 overs to go 4/109

Summer of 69--worst song ever. .!!
