Eh, Malinga did very well to contain them like he did. Matthews gave it away with 15 or so from his final over.

yeah he did bowl ok, but also blew two run outs, the two gift full tosses from mathews certainly did'nt do them any good.

Yeah, I can't believe he missed those run outs and Sangakkara dropping that catch certainly didn't help. Had he caught it, they would've won.

India got robbed of the 6th ball in the 30th over! Who knows if it would have made a difference, but it really is amazing that can happen in international cricket with so many officials.

Sri Lanka have now blown 2 games they should have won IMO.

i just found out about the missing sixth ball, it is amazing that no one realised, particularly with the amount of technology used in the updates and scoring,surely someone knew and could have alerted the umpires in time?

so, umm, werent Aussies good at ODIs ?

Number 1 in the world Yousha.

this is definitely a second string team, bowling attack has especially been weakened. deservedly walloped last night though. sri lanka have impressed me. expected them to be dire.

why was hilfenhaus 12th man? hes easily better than starc..

i think the selectors are scared that our bowlers will get injured? we've now lost mitchell marsh, pattinson, cummins to injury, harris is injury prone, maybe hilf isn't 100%? starc has been bowling ok, but hes still raw, i hope Hilf is put back in for the Gabba ODI.

you're right yousha, but we are still no1 but Sri Lanka have been playing well and deserved their comprehensive win.

hilf isn't injured. either play him or send him back to shield cricket. him being 12th man is stupid. he thrives on bowling overs and overs and overs.

agreed. so we play him and he takes 5 fa. selectors??

great effort from hilf, 5-33 and vitually wins the game for us, i doubt he will be "rested" again very soon.

so ponting got dropped from the DOI side, it had to happen, 16 runs from his last 5 innings, apparently watson is back in.
