Re: WC2007 Final: SL v AUS
Why Jayawradene did not concede defeat is just beyond me
Because someone conceding a world cup final will look ridiculous in the record books. Australia's win would probably have been unjustly listed with an asterisk on the side. I am glad they decided to play it out, even though the fact that there was an erroneous celebration in between is truly symbolic of the entire tournament.
And Aleem Dar was just doing his job. I'm glad that he didn't let it slip through. You know someone would have brought it up sooner or later. He would have taken more flak then.
