It don't think its soon at all. MJ wanted him because he has a bit of 'mystery' with him. He had that with Mendis, and MJ was the one captain that used him the best. And I think he should play in the T20 WC, because no one is yet to play him and he will do exactly what Mendis did a couple years back when he first came in to the scene. But after the WC, he should play FC cricket and develop more and then make his way to the team later. I think MJ will tell the selectors to get him into the 15.

And yes, I do think SL can win the WC. Out of all the SL squads for the three formats, to me, SLz T20 squad is the strongest (that is of course if players like UT don't play).

Wayamba is going to be screwed if the Pak players leave before the tourney is over. Majorly screwed.

Let's see what the girls are capable of tonight. Hope Wayamba tears them a new one.

Local bowlers continues to impress while our batting stocks look really flimsy. Only Munaweera could match the international talents.

Very very impressed with Malinga and his captaincy. Particularly how he handles youngsters. Today was a perfect example on how he handled the youngster Imran Khan. He got thrashed for 17 in the first over but Malinga still gave him the chance to ball, even giving him the last over. And the kid ended up with 2 wickets. Kudos to Malinga. People like Mahela should learn from him.

Magnificient over by Tanvir. When he gets right unplayable. Wicket maiden.

Suprise to see Imran khan playing Today.

Regarding Sohail Tanvir - I'm 100% sure that more-than his swing it's the action that is fooling the batsmen.

P.S. happy to see Sanath captain Kadurata than Kumar.
