Not, good enough, if you ask me. Sri Lanka have not yet been limited to less than 260-odd runs. Unless the English bowlers can pull off a performance like the one against SA, I don't think we'll see them Trotting to the finish line. Of course, Sri Lanka will have to pitch in, and provide the kind of spectacular collapse that is nearly becoming par for the course at this World Cup.

:frown: Australia lost... I'm one of the few Pakistanis who wanted Aus to win. :-p I felt really bad for the Aussies losing. And the idea of Pak vs Ind doesn't excite me at all, unlike everyone else in the sub-continent.

You are a traitor....

Yes, sir. Not "technically" since I was born in and am now studying in the US but I've lived most of my life in Pakistan.

I'm USA... the name is pure deception, but since any cricket team we put together would be a national embarresment, I have to pick international teams. I'm a big fan of India, Pakistan, AU, and Sri... mostly I just enjoy a cup of tea, coffee or cocoa and watching a test or tourny.
