Ok! that doesn't mean they are the worst. Once they were the world champions during 1996 event, still they play some good cricket all around. The present runners up in world championship of cricket. The bad day started right from the day Dilshan took up the captaincy from Kumar Sangakkara. As far as i think, Dilshan is not smart enough as Sanga or Mahela when it comes to the captaincy. Sanga did really well and managed a spot in the finals of the 2011 world cup. He has been consistent till then, never knew the reason for stepping down. If he had stepped down for not winning the world cup, then that is really stupid. He needs to take his captaincy back or the broad should decide someone else or rethink of giving it to Mahela.
The Biggest loss for their team came yesterday when they lost to South Africa in the first match of the ODI series. The home team batted really well to score over 300 with run machine Amla scoring a ton and Kallis getting another half century. Batting second, the lankans lost their openers early without scoring, followed by the big guns Mahela and sanga getting out cheaply, finally the whole team were bundled for 43.The Only positive hope for the Lankans should be, Lasith Malinga, took a five wicket haul and if he continues to bowl the same, things would be easy for them in the up coming matches and batsmen need to get their form back!
Good Luck Lanka.
