We all said 'bat first, win'

Can they get to 170 ish? That will at least give them slight hope.

The 'c' word doesn't really count for anything, despite what some will say. What happened in 1999 and 2003 has zero effect to what happens now. I'll stand by that even if the screw this up.

I dunno, if SA fail to win from here it will require a fairly spectacular meltdown. The c word will be thrown around, especially if they make a good start in the chase.

I said bat first, win. Looks as if I was wrong.

England wouldn't have bowled Sri Lanka out for 134.

In 12 List A innings (including 2 ODI inningss, including this one), Chameera has never been dismissed. Overall this will be his 28th List A game and he's never been dismissed batting. How the world throws up odd stats.

I expected this to be a battle of the batsmen.

SL chose the wrong moment to have an off-day.
