We need Dananjaya De Silva, Kitha, Kasun and Danushka no matter what. The have talent, we need to train them into better players. **** 3D, Kula, Shehan, TP should only play in T20 as a batsmen.

Should have let Amir at him early even if it meant bowling Amir out. That was their only hope really. More than anything couldn't believe Pakistan didn't go with a frontline spinner. I mean seriously did they not watch the Ind v NZ game. Way too many tactical blunders even before a ball was bowled.

Dhoni would not have defended it! Read my above post. In this case he would have allowed singles and let the opposition off the hook.

Dhoni has that midas touch in these tournies especially in subcontinental conditions. If there was any cap’n I would put my money on to pull it off it’ll definitely be him.

it all due to poor team selection, Thirimanne,Chandimal,Jayasuriya,lolsekara,Lakmal just too many passengers

Ford doing wonders with this team, Mathews who was one of the top batsman when Marvi was around now scoring 20 off 30 in a T20.

Gayle has pulled a hamstring.

I hope he is ok to play the rest of the WC.

Windies of to a flying start.

@jb: Chandimal didn't score due to Marvan they said, captaincy was poor due to Marvan they said, attapattu calmly listened. I'll let you continue the rest

Umpires played a major part. 3 dismissals gone against us. kapu dropped a dolly. So much for the specialist fielder. Gotta love TP's batting. Played using his brain more than ever. Bowling changes today was decent. Great fight back for the small score. Pretenders + Jokers came this far. Vadersay was brilliant. Absfuckenlutlely brilliant. Best option for Slinga. Get another spinner for crapu. Feel for hard working Chameera.  Kula dropped a sitter and so many missed fields. Worse fielding unit after Afgan!

We are a true minnow now. Teams can beat us without their best players these days.

Looks like Mathews was the culprit going with 3 bowlers and all arounders. Mathews seem to love perera. Shows he is defensive with his team meaning he has no confidence in his team.

Umpire ***** us with Dilshans dismissal and Siras lbw was not given as well. But our players are expected to perform during tough times like this. The point is they didnt do that.
