    At least he is switching sides before the election unlike others who jumps after the election....

    Friday, 26 February 2010 09:55 PM

    He lost his captaincy because of his defensive field placings and tactics. He has not changed - another defensive move.

    Friday, 26 February 2010 09:24 PM

    I thought what you cannot do is play cricket ... but neither can you do politics!

    Friday, 26 February 2010 08:43 PM

    He knows the result of the up-coming election ...

    Friday, 26 February 2010 05:54 AM

    He is planning to come with the "trophy" on the 09th April, but I am sure he will have neither "trophy" nor "elephant".

    He may join with Arjuna the longly fighter with JVP.

    Friday, 26 February 2010 05:48 AM

    Friday, 26 February 2010 05:48 AM

    Hashan is a great man - fine cricketer, once a proud captain for Shri Lanka

    Friday, 26 February 2010 05:44 AM

    Tillekaratne's are much in the news these days. Is there a catch somewhere???

    Friday, 26 February 2010 05:09 AM

    Is he crossing over?

    Friday, 26 February 2010 05:40 AM

    There's no way the UPFA will get such a victory. Stop dreaming. There are over 4 million people who voted against MR remember? All of them will be voting against the UPFA at this election :)

    Friday, 26 February 2010 05:27 AM

    Maybe is is going back to cricket :)

    Friday, 26 February 2010 05:26 AM

    i dont think UNP will come for another 10 years, if they didnt understand the reality.

    Friday, 26 February 2010 05:26 AM

    Hashan, you stay with cricket. Thats where you belong.

    Friday, 26 February 2010 05:24 AM

    UNP has become most unpredictable, in its selection of coalition partners as well as candidates?

    Friday, 26 February 2010 05:24 AM

    More evidence to predict UPFA's 4/5 victory!

    Friday, 26 February 2010 05:23 AM

    yes he is crossing over & was promised the vice captaincy job by Jayasuriya.

    Friday, 26 February 2010 05:21 AM
