    shace-UK Sunday, 16 January 2011 10:33 AM

    well said brother!!! Unfortunately 19 million out of 20 million in SL are narrow minded and like to see only the negative side on everything.....i mean everything!!!!!!!!

    Ranjan Rodrigo Sunday, 16 January 2011 10:33 AM

    Cant Sanath see how much of a joke and laughing stock he has become.He only has to read comments.Even foreugn coubtries are laughing at him. Enough is enough.

    Correction - WAS a legend. Now he's a political thug who abuses his power and goes around with armed convoys on the wrong side of the road!

    Emarat Sunday, 16 January 2011 12:47 PM

    he is giving MASTER PLASTER

    buruwa Sunday, 16 January 2011 12:47 PM

    I love Master blaster Sana.But don't care about politico Sana!!!!

    Umpire Sunday, 16 January 2011 01:28 PM

    How does he play cricket with army protection. Then a team should have 12-15 members.

    pol atha Sunday, 16 January 2011 02:19 PM

    why he come to politics. if he don have to do any thing stay home and help mom . thats good more than politics.

    JUNIOR CITIZEN Sunday, 16 January 2011 03:18 PM

    Old true but yesterday he hit 97 runs

    Yehiya-Doha Sunday, 16 January 2011 03:22 PM

    Sana lost all wealth.

    preethi Sunday, 16 January 2011 05:45 PM

    How come this man is given soldiers for his protection, when it should be from the police?

    Lokka Sunday, 16 January 2011 09:16 AM

    Well said! Totally agree!!!!!

    faumi Sunday, 16 January 2011 09:30 PM

    politics has ruined your image. Still it is not too late to get out of it. Remember politics is not for you.

    laky Monday, 17 January 2011 01:37 AM

    Sana when are you planning to hold the Press Conferance like Tigar Woods????

    Vishan Alvis Monday, 17 January 2011 01:48 AM

    May god bless Sana to do what..??

    Gamunu Monday, 17 January 2011 02:17 AM

    Dear This is not a good time for you.????? .Please take care

    wimalasiri Monday, 17 January 2011 04:13 AM

    Sanath you forgot your past. you came from matara beach dont forget that. You dont have a good character as well

    KHKaru Monday, 17 January 2011 04:53 AM

    Sanath may be a spent force, but please don't ridicule him. We all enjoyed his type of power batting and wily bowling, in his hey-day and he was instrumental in winning us many a match. We must be grateful for that.

    sira Monday, 17 January 2011 06:49 AM

    Typical Sri Lankans. Just dont like to swallow what MR did to free LANKa (NOT SF). Respect others views. SJ selected what suites him most not what the arrogant, shortsighted, pundits advice.

    Roshan Monday, 17 January 2011 09:45 AM

    After how many matches?

    harris Monday, 17 January 2011 12:19 PM

    So much frustrated been dropped from the final 15 players
    world cup squad he had to hit some one just like the politicians do ???

    mnizlan Monday, 17 January 2011 12:59 PM

    SANA WE STILL LOVE YOU

    defi Tuesday, 18 January 2011 02:15 AM

    best allrounder in the world

    Fair N Square Sunday, 16 January 2011 06:25 AM

    All u ungreatful ppl pls do not forget the good times of entertainment he gave us as a cricketer. Respect him for what he was. It's OK to get involved in an accident and yes, its OK to have a bodyguard, now that he has turned into a politician.

    I didnt approve of his playing in the current team to represent SL in the world cup, but I will not disrespect him. He is a legend. See the respect he commands in India, West Indies and the world over.

    All u negative commentators pls learn the meaning of the word "accident" it is not done on purpose...... IDIOTS.

    srilankan boy Sunday, 16 January 2011 05:31 AM

    Sanath still HITS!!

    Tharaka Chanaka Sunday, 16 January 2011 05:33 AM

    Another Tiger Woods scandal?...

    Curious Citizen Sunday, 16 January 2011 05:38 AM

    Hmmmmm are these accidents becoming way too often and objective?? :O Only God knows...

    Bonda Sunday, 16 January 2011 05:41 AM

    Why should the most famous and supposed to be most loved personality in Sri Lanka have army body guards. It is a shame.

    ishi Sunday, 16 January 2011 05:47 AM

    ohhh poor sana

    ishi Sunday, 16 January 2011 05:47 AM

    ohh poor sana....

    Ranjan Sunday, 16 January 2011 05:47 AM

    Too old to react to prevent an accident???

    kumar Sunday, 16 January 2011 05:53 AM

    thank God he is safe.

    Thas Sunday, 16 January 2011 05:58 AM

    That's OK. A politician and army. Let's see who is powerful.

    CriketExperts1 Sunday, 16 January 2011 06:01 AM

    ohhhh all knw he cant hit ball so he hit on bike

    saman Sunday, 16 January 2011 06:05 AM

    What happens to the Mo-bike rider ? Is he OK ! I doubt its the bike hitting Sana's motor parade

    bash Sunday, 16 January 2011 05:27 AM

    Welcome to the band of our normal politicians

    buruwa Sunday, 16 January 2011 07:06 AM

    All gone as he entered the dirty game(politics) from the gentle man's game thats cricket.
    So Sana deserves these comments now!!!!

    Mahesh Hettiarachchi Sunday, 16 January 2011 07:11 AM

    May God bless our Sana boy!

    ruwan Sunday, 16 January 2011 07:16 AM

    Every body respect him as a great cricketer, but these days most of the people does not like him these days the way of playing in cricket,politics and as a normal person.

    Razor Blade Sunday, 16 January 2011 07:21 AM

    Sri Lanka had produced so many world class individuals, but in the recent past it was Sanath J. Who made Sri Lanka proud in his unorthodox cricketing style. True, the time has come for him to call it a day. Cricket is the only sport that we could dominate the world stage, Sanath, Aravinda & ,Murali’s contributions were immense and unmatchable. Don’t have to go very far, our giant neighbor still respect Senath’s talent .They knew how dangerous player Sanath was. In Very shortsighted Sri Lankan society, any legend is no legend in no time for some selfish -People. Hard to stomach, that’s who we are!. It is a Shame.

    Dee Sunday, 16 January 2011 07:22 AM

    So! those idiots wearing white paper bags on their hands and waving like mad were not capable of shooing the bike rider away? My sympathies with whoever was on the bike.

    MARU PORA Sunday, 16 January 2011 07:33 AM

    OUR HUMBLE REQUEST TO YOU SANATH,

    JUST GIVE UP POLITICS AND LIVE LIKE A SPORTSMAN.
    EVERYONE WILL LOVE YOU.

    PRESIDENT Sunday, 16 January 2011 07:44 AM

    may be a wonderful six

    lankan Sunday, 16 January 2011 08:22 AM

    please don't scold or condemn him......we should be very greatful to him.he brought pride and glory to our nation sacricifising his life.......leave politics aside.....he's a gentleman.....he's a LANKAN.......he's a legend........he's hero (master)......he was a person who the total cricketing world was scared of........atlast he's a HUMAN BEING........Do't ever forget the 1996 World Cup...........May god blesss u my dear co-LANKAN........

    reality Sunday, 16 January 2011 08:40 AM

    no hand-eye coordination

    Priyantha Sunday, 16 January 2011 08:43 AM

    This fellow is going in wrong direction....

    ONLOOKER Sunday, 16 January 2011 08:57 AM
