srilanka cant win outside their country..

[TheSmootherCriminal]

@ketan87370

that's why they were in the Grand Final in the last world cup

[pranith001]

@TheSmootherCriminal thank u for correcting the dumbass...

[TheSmootherCriminal]

@pranith001

haha , no probs

[panbatta]

ajantha mendis not as fit as murali when he was 23 i do not think he will reach muralis standard.

[BelarusIsFun]

yeah but hes ahead of how good he is compared to murali at 23

[nidharshanf]

Only time would tell.

[Sendo911]

look man. this is srilanka's best line up. freaks -- on the bowling is enough to win.

Vaas, Malinga, Muralitharan, A. Mendis

Thats just freak beast man! i want aussie to be top ofcourse but srilanka is very strong side now, since the debut of mendis!

[ahrrove]

u know what mr.Sendo911 u and u'r aussies can wait till u get beaten by us lions shut u'r bloddy kangaroo mouth and stop calling us "freaks" or i'll suggest a suitable name for u!!!!!

[bsuebq]

Aus on top??? hahahah.. aus are far far away from the top.. I reckon they are 6th at the moment..

[939291]

No australia arn't excatly top but i wouldn't go as far as calling them 6th, and i don't think he called you freaks in a derogatory sense, he ment it as your, your just freakishly good bowlers. even thou i don't quite agree.

[vicavox]

I think to say that is somewhat naive in cricketing terms, yes their bowling line up is seemingly intimidating, but what's the point in being able to take wickets when they can't bat a solid innings. Sangakkara is and has always been quality with bat and gloves, but Jayawardene hasn't fired in some time, Jayasuriya has retired, Dilshan has improved but after that who else is there? It's a sorry state of affairs for their batting line up most of which average in the 30s or less...not good.

[Sendo911]

ahaha india brought this rule up and got fuckd.

India cannot beat srilanka. srilanka might be best team in tests right now!

[ryannd8]

i dont think so, i think australia and sa would beat them - all eastern teams just seem to have a problem in india which the other sub-continental teams dont have

[bsuebq]

not aus. aus is not in the top 5 teams

[939291]

Alright Name 5 other teams that could beat australia in a test match, i'll start you off, south africa and maybe india on home soil, go on name another 3 more.

New zealand can't beat them in a test, we beat them 2-0. so there i made it easy for you name 3 more teams.

[bsuebq]

Well I meant ODI. I suppose test cricket. they are probably 4th-5th.

In ODI's, I reckon Sri Lanka Pakistan can beat them too. I mean those two have beaten NZ recently so safe to assume so. SL even won the recent Asia Cup so should be good enough. Even West Indies might have a chance if they keep it up but Im not sure. As for good ol''England, we will have to wait and see (ODI's)

[gihan62]

@939291 pakistan did... and sri lanka will with ajantha mendis on home soil...hmmm England can with help of South african players and the Irishman Morgan really impress alot of people :D

[Adeeis]

whats the need for this fucked up song!!

[arezarasuno84]

just to make it clear this is not a hindi song this is pakistani urdu song by junaid jamshed.

anyway mendis is special talent

[internetworldxd]

man, shut up please...

[evilknievel20]

wtf

[minchi279]

i think is a kind of marketing.since the song is in hindi more asian viewers tend to watch that.but as you said if it was in english it would predict more.anyways good videos thanks for that.

[nissanka]

Appreciate the videos. Hate to be picky but since this is a Sri Lankan cricket blog why not put some Sinhala/Tamil/English music instead of a Hindi song.

[rakee0]

Sehwag is a player who has amazing placement...effortless batting frm him in 2nd test...bt yar he shud have gone for 188 when he edged one to Prasanna off Mendis...so actually Mendis at last get d bettr of Sehwag although it ws nt given...evnthough im a SL guy i beliv it is fair that he ws nt walkin coz he ws nearin a wel deservd 200...n hats off 4 him when he refused d run @ 199..amaazin bit f batsmanship....bt dnt 4get..Mendis still cn get u out...hes such a dangerous customer

[indcric1]

its ok...india tasted more of bad decisons than sri lanka did. But without a doubt mendis is not only a wickettaker but is a matchwinner. Congratulation for your team's win. I cant see my team go home empty hands from lanka. I hope they can bag one day series.

[SLcric4life]

india didnt taste more bad decisions, its plain and simple: mahela used the challenge system more effectively than kumble and was getting aggresive wich is wat i like to c from him.. umpires made right decisions, most went in sl's favor bcuz they wer out, simple as that, mahela got it right.. and india wasted so many reviews wen batting wen they prob new it was plumb, u cnt say decisions going against them and its not their fault, bcuz it was.. so many challenges were wasted.. no1 wants to b out

[whateverdude789]

dont think i was talking abt a flawless mahela's innings :-) think u have misunderstood my intentions mate. i wasnt trying to prove SL cric team was better than india's. far from it. i was just saying sehwag's innings was a pretty charmed one is all. and i DID give him credit for his knock in my first post. if ur rantings make u feel better at night when u go to sleep then whatever mate, whatever...i guess reason and logic go out the window with indian cric fans..

[3starbadman]

"i guess reason and logic go out the window with indian cric fans.."

It DOES. It's almost pathetic actually.

[whateverdude789]

are u guys kidding me?? sehwag played a good innings i agree and not to take away anything from him but he had such a charmed life!! he almost got out about 7-8 times to be honest!! u guys probably didnt watch the whole thing and just took one look at the scorecard and thought sehwag has mendis's number! he just had an awfully lucky coupla days is all...

[indcric1]

it seam like u dont watch cricket at all. There is new review system so the fielders can ask to review the decieson. There was 1 catch dropped but even if that would have been cought, fielders foot was on the boundry line. And sehwag hit mendis for 6 every time he came to bowl.

[whateverdude789]

dude pay attention i didnt mean dropped chances i meant he ALMOST got out... meaning close calls... like leading edges that flew just past fielders. got it? thts how the guy plays anyway & on his day those close calls will go his way. thats wht i meant so dont get all riled up for no reason. and i wasnt implying mendis was invincible. of course he went for runs. big time. but to say that sehwag had his number after that innings?? i highly doubt it.

[indcric1]

son, i think ur getting confuse with gambhir's inning. Gambhir's inning included 1drop catch and some inside edges. But jayawardhane's 100 had more drop catches in 1st test than gambhir in 2nd test. Give my man sehwag some credit. His 200 came when sri lankan bowlers humilating other indian batsman.

[saqibny123]

If you subtract Sehwag's 201 from India's innings total 329,the whole India team all out for 128 runs... hahaha bloody loosers.. India's batting line up if just full of crap nothing else. A 23 year old kid making their life hell.

[Hmarkas]

the older guys are nearing their end, i agree but it seems sehwag has mendis's number and so will other good players in due time
