It's a blessing in disguise as SL have to play serious cricket particularly in the test series, as that matters most, without taking chances and avoiding bounces.

NOT REALY. THE TEAM SHOULD BE AT THEIR PEAK TO BEAT AUSTARLIA. NOW IT'S TOO LATE. LACK OF LEADERSHIP.

It looks like the Sri Lankans are behind in all three departments at the moment. The aussies seems to be in very good shape and gelling well under Clarke. We need to get the upper hand in the next game or will have a tough series.

Lack of Leadership is a Major thing....I guess the line up should change as well.

Dilshan/Tharanga/Chandimal/Jeevan/Mahela/Sanga/Angelo/then the rest follows....

If people like us can think these kind of things why can't the players them self think of this tactics and play accordingly... what ever happens....this is why Dhoni still remains one of the greatest captains and thinkers in Cricket......
