After the win in the 2 test series against Pakistan addressing a news conference Chandimal said that he used Witchcraft and the blessings of a Manio helped him to win the Test series!Didn't he try it this time ?What a statement from a Cricket Captain .

I too read this news item and I think its the first time in cricket history that a captain of a Test cricket team had made a comment of this nature.Does the historic defeat today mean that this Manio has lost her Devine power ?

I think we should not play international cricket few years until building a better team, otherwise these guys become jokers.

Come home boys, we can't stand it no more!

The agony of watching the Sri Lankans playing cricket in the International arena, clearly illustrates the deteriorating standards in our club cricket structures brought about due to the Chairman of the SLC playing politics to ensure his success at the Board elections.Nobody seems to want to address this issue.

SL must learn how India play test cricket as they are the best side in the world, now and adopt their approach, at the next test.
