Gayle and his men have enjoyed the conditions in SE11, with two wins in three matches, and even in defeat against South Africa, they still posted a respectable 163. Sri Lanka haven’t yet played here, although the prospect holds no fear for Kumar Sangakkara. “It looks a pretty even track with good bounce,” he said, “so if our spinners can get a bit more bounce they’ll be more effective, and get that bit extra for taking wickets.”
Lets see who’ll we face on sunday

Westindies will win this :)
Re: ICC World Twenty20, 2nd Semi-Final: Sri Lanka v West Indies at The Oval, Jun 19,
This will be qanother interesting match,for sure.WI has power(Batting from Gayle,Sarwan C.P etc) and S.L has the art(Spin from MLDN and Ajanta).
if WI make it ,it will bean almost easy stuff for Pak whereas S.L will be a tough one.
Re: ICC World Twenty20, 2nd Semi-Final: Sri Lanka v West Indies at The Oval, Jun 19,
I dont think Any finalist will be easy....
Against Srilanka Malinga gave us hard time with his short pitches and slower ones .... WI's has good fast attack.
Srilankan Spin has been awesome, but tackled em well in super 8 game.... WI's batsmen will be more comfortable against Gul than Srilankans. We shld be ready for both !
Inshallah final is Our :)
Re: ICC World Twenty20, 2nd Semi-Final: Sri Lanka v West Indies at The Oval, Jun 19,
Edwards is probably out for todays....
I think if SL comes to the Final,, then Pakistan have higher chance of loosing it,

Re: ICC World Twenty20, 2nd Semi-Final: Sri Lanka v West Indies at The Oval, Jun 19,

Re: ICC World Twenty20, 2nd Semi-Final: Sri Lanka v West Indies at The Oval, Jun 19,
my two favourite non-pakistani teams playing, i dunno who to pick.
i'd prefer if WI won, just because Pakistan havent played them yet
Re: ICC World Twenty20, 2nd Semi-Final: Sri Lanka v West Indies at The Oval, Jun 19,
Jayasuriya gone bonkers, changed bat so many times. He doesn't realize that its not the 'bad' bat but the bad-timing / not-reading the bowler.
He has scored 16 runs off 29 balls, very un-Jayasuriya.

Re: ICC World Twenty20, 2nd Semi-Final: Sri Lanka v West Indies at The Oval, Jun 19,
Jayasuriya should just get himself out of misery by run-out or something.

Re: ICC World Twenty20, 2nd Semi-Final: Sri Lanka v West Indies at The Oval, Jun 19,
10 overs...72 runs for SL and no wicket still...hmmmmmmmmm
Probably Jayasuriya doesn’t want to be left out of ‘records book’ for changing bats
