Well done Sri Lanka,definitely the best team of the tournament won.I do think SA could have won India with better management but Sri lanka would have been a tough one to beat in the final even with good management on our part.

Also I'm glad to see the look on that arrogant Indian's face(Kohli):D.Yes he is good but that's no excuse to be a prick,for that reason alone I'm glad India lost.

The funny thing is we could've easily been here if our management and bowling staff knew what a Yorker was and how to use it in a T20 during the last 4 overs.That simple fact which I called out after our loss to India proved to be what allowed Sri Lanka to overcome a strong Indian side.

Alan Donald was a great bowler but he needs to wake up and realise T20 isn't a test match or 1 day'er where he was so successful.....move with the times and get the Yorkers right for the last few overs.In fact that could work in tight one day games also.

Its the same old arguments over and over again.
Idiots commenting on the same thing trying to be diplomatic about the whole thing.
They even go the SL winning prediction wrong, claiming it will be a landslide win by India? Really? its a final, any team can win on the day, SL had Malinga & Herath with a decent batting line up, but no, Keppler and Bouch said its not enough to beat India lol.
Why do we even watch these fools?

Well done SL. Superb bowling performance.

Ironic that Malinga captained the team as the spearhead of the bowling outfit. No wickets for him in this outing, but nonetheless he was frugal. Their performance with the ball was that much greater considering that Kolhi was there at the crease for most of the innings. Deserved winners on that performance.

Question: who will be the regular captain for SL if Chandimal seems to be taking a back seat?

He was only captain in name, that was all sanga and jayewardene leading and making the decisions out there.:)
