Sri Lanka It's Happening

April 24, 2007

After a month long world cup campaign during which Sri Lanka looked like possible world champions comes the day of reckoning. In a few minutes time they take on New Zealand in the first semi final. Though these teams have played each other so often in the past it will be first encounter in a world cup semi final. Not so with the other semi. Australia played South Africa in a previous semi final and the memory is still said to haunt the South Africans.

If Sri Lanka want's to win the Wold Cup , first they have to get past the Kiwis. And it want be easy. This is probably the best New Zealand team of all time (even though it doesn't include a Hadlee or a Cairns)

The next few minutes could decide the fate of these two teams.
