So annoying how long it has been since our next match.

Should be a good test for him to see how he goes on the turning track and of course how our batsmen go. If they go well against SL spinners then that goes a long way to putting the can't handle spin theory to rest.

The match of the tournament for me. Both teams in good form. SRL playing at home and with a spinning track in sight, this should be a cracker. I feel the home team does have the advantage here and we might just see the proud Aussie record go down here.

From an Aussie perspective, I would want to see Ricky score some much needed runs- a class act, who is in his last cup, should be interesting how he handles this one here.

At 10/11, both are favorites. No scope for any arbitrage here. Might have to look at the odds of other matches.

If Australia lose regular wickets when batting I think it will be really hard to steadily milk the SL spinners. I can see some major bog-down happening. BUT....if someone can stay in and makes a big score, then I think the Aussies can do well here. And when bowling, if the fast men can take 3 wickets in the first 15 and get into the less special batsmen quickly, I think it will be Australia's day. So there you have it, they need a big scorer and some early wickets or I think SL might get them.

I believe this is the first time in SL's history they are favourites (joint) against Australia. The toss will be very crucial in deciding the outcome of the game.

This is a huge match. I expect it to be cracker. Its Australia's pace vs Lankan guile.

Sri Lanka, it is! In the subcontinent against Sri Lankan spinners, I see the Aussies struggling big. They struggled against Chawla's spin in the warmup. Murali is itching to make this a glorious swansong.

And beware of the yorker specialist L.Malinga!

Really going to be Match of the tournament

Ohhh this is big.. AUS yet to loss a match in WC for last 3 worldcups ... will be their biggest test this one

 

[sami ullah khan]

For some reason, I have this feeling that since Pakistan was the last team to beat Australia in WC (1999), it will again be Pakistan that will break Aussie's winning streak.
