Sri Lanka after winning the toss has chose to bat first. Sri Lanka made 274/6 in 50 overs. Jayawardene was the hero as he made 103 runs off 88 balls. They started slow and lost two wickets early. Some sensible batting from Sangakkara, Samaraweera, Kulasekara and last minute fireworks from Thissara Perera helped them  a lot.

 Talking more about the match, Zaheer bowled superb at beginning but went for plenty in the last 5 overs. Yuvraj took 2 wickets and was pick of the bowlers.

As its a match in Sri Lanka, Murali will be the most important one. Pakistan on the other hand has players like Shehzad and Misbah in superb touch. So, expect a head-to-head competition.

Sri Lanka vs Canada - Live in ICC Cricket World cup 2011

The third match of ICC Cricket World cup 2011 is between the host Sri Lanka and the non-test playing nation Canada. The match is set to be held in Hambantota on 20th Feb, 2011 at 14:30 IST. Sri Lanka are the strong contenders for the world cup and Canada impressed in the warm-up match against England.

Though we cannot say it would be very competitive, we can expect Canada to provide some hurdles for Sri Lanka. Sri Lankan would look to start the World cup in fashion by winning it with huge margin.

The 7th match of Tri-series in Bangladesh is going to be the final between India and Sri Lanka. The series featured two matches between these two and each team won a match. Both won all matches against Bangladesh. Seeing the recent form, India seems to be comparatively mightier. Though batting is OK for both, bowling still is problematic.

India vs Sri Lanka - Live , 5th ODI of Idea cup tri-series 2010

Sri Lanka have won all the matches of Idea cup 2010. Another bad news for India is that Dilshan will be back in the match. Sri Lanka is the most familiar opponent for India in last 2 years and mostly Indians have dominated. But last ODI win has boosted Sri Lankan morale with them already in finals. India either needs to win this match to get to final or just wait for Monday match against Bangladesh. For India this ODI values more than that for Sri Lanka.
