Cricket World Cup 2007

So the cricket world cup has officially opened. I’m really looking forward to this one. Sri Lanka are looking the strongest and the most balanced since 1996. If Lanka can’t win it this time it’s going to be a while before we are in a position like this. It is unlikely that the talents of Jayasuriya, Murali and Vaas will be about next time around.

One thing we all know and love about cricket is the unpredictability - anything can go down. The underdog can jump up and bite when you least expect it. New Zealand have already lost to Bangladesh in their warm up match. I feel Bangladesh are the next team to give the top countries a serious run for their money. Let hope it’s not at Sri Lanka’s expense.
