Rallyin round the West Indies! :)

That's easy. Its the Windies.

[JourneyMan]

Doesn't matter, I like both teams. I always like it when teams win home tournaments, but I also love watching the Windies bat (when they really get going). Both teams are generally quite good in terms of sportsmanship (excluding Sanga), and seem to go out there and enjoy the game.

[daryl1985]

Have a £50 bet on West Indies so want them but if i had no money i would want Sri Lanka to win. If Murali was still playing i would want Lanka to win irrespective of my bet.

[Executioner]

[BeautifulGame]

If Muralist was playing I would have definitely wanted Srilanka to win.

ICC CEO admits 1st semi final pitch was not ideal http://www.cricbuzz.com/cricket-news/52823/icc-ceo-admits-1st-semi-final-pitch-was-not-ideal

The pitch used for the 1st semi-final between Sri Lanka and Pakistan came under heavy criticism from players and experts. Now, the ICC CEO Dave Richardson has admitted that the strip was not "ideal" for T20 cricket but mentioned that pitch preparation is a difficult task in the prevailing climatic conditions in the island nation. "Ideally, we need to ensure that a pitch doesn't change its condition from one innings to next one. Yes, the pitch used in the first semifinal wasn't an ideal wicket for T20 format, as there was too much assistance to spinners," Richardson admitted on the eve of the final between Sri Lanka and the West Indies. While Wasim Akram had accused Sri Lanka of trying to prepare a wicket that suits their spinners, Richardson tried to defend the curator saying that conditions were same for both teams. "There was advantage for both the teams and Sri Lankan spinners took better advantage of the situation. Having said that, I spoke to the curator and he said that wicket was too dry to his liking. You have to accept that in this climate where it is so hot, to prepare a wicket is incredibly difficult," Richardson said.

So can we complain next time when there is "too much" grass.

While Wasim Akram had accused Sri Lanka of trying to prepare a wicket that suits their spinners,

:hysterical: says someone who is supporting a side packed with Hafeez, Afridi, Ajmal, Hasan, and Mr. Mirza. With three of them ranked in the top 10 t20 bowling rankings.
