Sanga and Mahela’s characterstic fixation on ‘character’
It gives me an impression that SL team is richest in character and other teams are studs or sluts 
. Almost with no character.
And if you compare this lads’ performance with others then this 2 greats on flat pitches lack character which is shown by ageless Sanath Jaisurya or Dilly Dolly Dilshan or for that matter Kadamby. In my view Mendis, Mahela and Sanga are characterless and useless characters in richly characterstic SL team which has the most interesting caricature in the world cricket — Malinga who also shows a huge character in growing his hair in weird styles, yet he performs. He shows character in giving 81 runs or even 3 or 4 wkts…..
Not the types who puke character and score 1 and get out on a teesra of a chautha grade bowler or get hit wicker 
.
I need somebody with huge guts and highest character to show character and put a tape on Sanga / Mahela’s characterstic mouth when they utter character.
Bhaiya Sanga aur Mahila ki maane to baaki sab teams charitraheen hai aur Lanka ki team sushil saumya saubhagyawati team hai.
Lol.
What would ya watch ?
The ashes between England and Australia ?
or the battle between T20 finalists Pakistan and Sri Lanka who played out a boring test series last time they met (ignore Lahore attacks and Tests).
How would Pakistan switch to Tests mode after T20 triumph and hoopla ?
Its an irony that Pakistan hold dominance over Sri Lanka in Sri Lanka and Sri Lanka hold dominance over Pakistan in Pakistan in Tests. Amazing. It would also be keen to watch how Malinga scales up to the Tests after IPL and WT20.
The rankings wont change. The top 3 Test teams wont change. But will SL and Pak change their mode of playing Tests (long boring batting draws)?
Life without Aussies
They just didnt show their true colors. One eye on Ashes and half a eye on world t20. This approach didnt work. And this caps off a horrendous time they have had in limited version of the game in 2009. In a way India’s way eased out to the title defense.
The big names flopped, the returning stars ran out of the steam. Ponting seemed to be in a Test mode while captaining a T20.
In short, the Aussies have been drained out of the T20 world series and it would be SL who would be in India’s group. Mendis vs Indians. Wow. Delightful propositions.
Aussies now get to the Test mode and they would want to now win the Ashes by the same margin as they won in 2006-07, so that we could see Ponting retire and Sachin’s supremacy in Test cricket sealed forever.
Sreesanth’s friend in Emerald Isle
Jumping jack just got in to Lasith Malinga….Where is he ? Dancing in some reality show to fitness or working on nets to come back ?
Sri lanka ‘s Sreesanth
SL worthy of Spirit of Cricket Award ? Noooo
2) Lasith Malinga
Aint they killing the spirits of the game ? Isnt the Chuck earning cheap wkts against the likes of BD and Zim ? 200 odd wkts in 23 Tests against this 2 minnows. Is that boosting spirits of cricket ? ICC adjudicators (minus Siddath Vettimuny) got to answer that. IMHO SL kill the spirits of cricket in worst way like no other team in the world does.
