after the drubbing England just received at the hands of Aus in the last few weeks their morale must be pretty dented.

*Srilanka must win this game....

Re: Champions Trophy - Sri Lanka v England - Sep. 25, 09

England will win this game! I support England.

Re: Champions Trophy - Sri Lanka v England - Sep. 25, 09

England won the toss and will field.

Re: Champions Trophy - Sri Lanka v England - Sep. 25, 09

Re: Champions Trophy - Sri Lanka v England - Sep. 25, 09

Re: Champions Trophy - Sri Lanka v England - Sep. 25, 09

*Look like one of the fav will be out from the tournament today

Re: Champions Trophy - Sri Lanka v England - Sep. 25, 09

argh! - after Pak, I'm rooting for SL... c'mon guys - don't let your fans down.

No SLA won't even if they lose today....as long as they beat NZ

And with the attack SLA have, England might struggle to get anything around 220

some recovery already 81/4 after 19.4 overs

SLA probably took England lightly and are paying for it. The intensity that they displayed against SA the other day is missing today

82/5

200 looks a long way off now

Re: Champions Trophy - Sri Lanka v England - Sep. 25, 09

Getting to 200 might be difficult as their last recognised pair is at the crease now. Another wicket and they will struggle to recah 150.

England all the way.

Re: Champions Trophy - Sri Lanka v England - Sep. 25, 09

SL 146/5 (33 overs)

Partnership of 66 between Mathews and Kandamby.

149/5

good recovery by the Sri Lankans

200+ on now

Re: Champions Trophy - Sri Lanka v England - Sep. 25, 09

SL keep on amusing me. After 17/4 reaching to 150/5 and still going on is just brilliant.

If somehow SL is able to reach to 200(+), we have a game on. Mendis and Murli combo can prove to be a little too much for england

Go SL Go !!

ban this guy. :naraz:

Re: Champions Trophy - Sri Lanka v England - Sep. 25, 09
