Pakistan v/s Sri Lanka - Super Eights - Off the field and On it!

Yeah, I know we haven't been updating you everyday, but then I have a life beyond APU and Cricket, no matter how hard that is to believe!

So, the Super Eights have already begun and Kiwis and Saffers have one win each beating the Whipped Creams and Poms respectively, but not respectfully!

[New Zealand v/s Scotland Score Card]

[South Africa v/s England Score Card]

The next game, Pakistan v/s Sri Lanka, starts this evening IST, but the run up has already begun, albeit off the field!

Catch the debate between Damith, a bored Lankan, and Q, a bored Pakistani, only at, where else, but Bored!

Padded Up Players:

Pakistan: Shahid Afridi

He is not sizzling with the bat but Younis Khan hasn't been hesitating to give him more chances! Hopefully Afridi will repay that faith with the bat! Afridi has been bowling well for sometime now, and though Damith beleives that is illegal, Afridi could be the only one able to reign in, Jaya Ho!

Sri Lanka: Lasith Malinga

He sizzled for Mumbai Indians, in crunch situations and against big hitters, and that is exactly what Kumar Sangakkara would need from his strike bowler! To top that, Malinga has all the makings for being Lanka's top bowler, those that include a weird action, and a 'M' name!

Betting Odds:

The betters have termed the Lankans as the favorites for this one! After all, KS never went on record to call T20 as fun game!

Pakistan: 2.58
Sri Lanka: 1.62

Of course, you know, the lesser the odds, the more are the chances of that team winning!

Captain's Word:

Younis Khan still sticks to beleiving T20 is a fun game, something like WWF! Did he also mean it is rigged?

Kumar Sangakkara has enough faith in his genius players, in Sanath, Malinga, Murli and Mendis!!

Last Word:

Which would be our word! Let Sri Lanka go all out and win this one and all their other games in Super 8's! Pakistan should then defeat every one else in their group! We need to make it easy for India by avoiding Kiwis in the semi finals!!
