The one thing you relied upon srl even during their bad phase was "minnow bashing " but they have lost even that x factor now and teams like bangladesh and Afghanistan might cause a upset .

Srl of old would have steamrolled Afghan and bangla boys 

That was mostly because of Murli.. minnows could never pick him and he would end up getting 4-5 wickets for 20 runs

What UK channel please? Otherwise weblink?

Akila's 5 overs and malinga's remaining overs are key here. They can still blow away Afghans in the middle overs,gotta bat carefully against these 2

Conceding 60+ runs in an ODI most times:
29 T Southee/ L MALINGA
25 A Agarkar/ Zaheer Khan/ J Anderson
23 Brett Lee/ A Nehra/ M Mortaza
22 N Kulasekara
21 S Broad
20 M Johnson

249 is a poor score perhaps 20-30 short.

More games played = more whatever ..., it would be interesting to see this as a % of innings 

[Zero_Unit]

This is painful to watch. Santa's heart must be broken

[Zero_Unit]

Sl 2 down.

[Franco Vazquez]

2 wickets in quick succession for Afghanistan. That was a shocking shot from Perera

[Frustrated]

Lankans are in deep water. It seems.   

 

Real shame if they get eliminated like this.

[beetle]

91/4...wth Sri lanka.

Give the Afghans a fight !!

[Adi BB]

Srl are done here unless mathoos does something special .Afghan spinners are relentless.
