munafbhai Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 SL and Pakistan both. Both live in self denial world where they never loose matches to better performance by opposing team or great performance by opposition player..... Its always that their own team lost on their own ...either for fixing or to prove a point. They will beleive in any conspiracy theory that supports their theory on why India can never win. For ex In 2011 , my Paki friend in UAE said BCCI used its money power to buy the world cup. I asked him ok even if we assume that is true how did India win in 1983. His answer....because BCCI was poor that time and the world wanted to help it become richer and keep game alive in India so they let India win 1993 Worldcup.

Square Drive Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 Sri Lankan impression on Australian cricket wrong July 31, 2011, 12:00 pm by Rex Clementine Among the modern Sri Lankan cricket fans, thereÃÔ quite a bit of animosity towards Australian cricket. Asoka Atapattu who has travelled around the world to see the Sri Lankan team compete says, "I used to be a die-hard Australian supporter, but after what they did to us in 1995, I want even Bangladesh to beat them." Asoka is not alone as there are several other Sri Lankans who think on same terms. Many Sri Lankans were thrilled when England regained the Ashes in December not because they like English cricket (the English cricket team is half South African at the moment), but when Sri Lanka is not involved in a cricket contest, thereÃÔ no better feeling than to see Australia being beaten and that too by such thumping margins. This hostile feeling towards Australian cricket stems from the bitter experience of Sri LankaÃÔ acrimonious tour to Australia in 1995-1996. "No tour of Australia is easy. When you land in Australia you get that feeling that everything is working against you in unison. You feel like even the Australian media is targeting you," Arjuna Ranatunga, the man who has fought many battles with the Australians on and off the field says. On that 1995-1996 tour, the Sri Lankans were accused of ball tampering in Perth and later were exonerated but all hell broke loose when Muttiah Muralitharan was called for throwing on Boxing Day at MCG in front of 55,000 spectators. If Ranatunga hadnÃÕ been the captain that day, Muttiah Muralitharan would have been history. The Sri Lankans disappointment incensed when they felt that the umpiring during the latter stage of the Benson & Hedges series was extremely poor after they had beaten West Indies to qualify for the finals against the hosts. But overall, Australian cricketÃÔ support to Sri Lanka has been overwhelming since the island gained Test status. In the pre-Test era, Australia did block Sri LankaÃÔ case for Test status as they enjoyed veto power along with England at the International Cricket Council (ICC). But after Sri Lanka gained Test status, their support has been genuine. The first Test Australia played in Sri Lanka was in 1983, a year after Sri Lanka had gained Test status. They first played a three Test series against Sri Lanka in 1992, long before the Sri Lankans had beaten them in a Test Match. But England awarded the Sri Lankans a three Test series only nine years after the Australians did so in 2001 and that was after Arjuna RanatungaÃÔ side had humiliated them in the one off Oval Test in 1998 with a ten wicket win. Ranatunga then rubbed salt into the English wounds at the post match media conference. The Sri Lankan captain was asked why England continued to give his country just a one off Test every time. RanatungaÃÔ tongue in cheek comment was, "Well, maybe they are scared that if they give us three Tests they will lose 3-0." The Sri Lankans have been regular visitors to Australia to play the popular annual tri-nation tournament. Since they first participated in the Benson & Hedges Series in 1984, Sri Lanka have toured on eight other occasions to play the popular tri-nation competition. In fact, after India and Pakistan, it is against the Australians they have played the most number of ODIs numbering 72. But the biggest contribution for Sri Lankan cricket by Australia was explained by revolutionary former Board Chairman Ana Punchihewa who was instrumental in bringing Australian coaching expertise in the form of Dav Whatmore and Alex Kontouri. "When I took over the board, we had a bank balance of Rs. 300,000. When I signed the contract with Dav, my committee was asking Ana, what are you doing? Where is the money? How are you going to get the money? I said, donÃÕ worry, you have to be positive and I told them I will get the money. Then I told Dr. Quintus (de Zylva), our representative in Australia that I need 100,000 dollars. After sometime, he called me back and said, sorry Ana, no luck. I was wondering what to do and just one week before Dav came he called me again and said Ana, I have got the money. I asked him how did you get it. He said the Australian Cricket Board gave it. I was stunned. I said, what, Australian Cricket Board?," Punchihewa recalls. "The guarantee money for our tour later that year to Australia was 100,000 dollars. But the Australian Board agreed to make it 200,000 dollars when we desperately needed it. They said, donÃÕ tell anyone, but use this money on Dav." Sledging has been another reason why the Sri Lankan public hate the Australians. Sledging was rampant during that series in 1995-1996 and why the 1996 World Cup win is all the more sweet is that it came against the Australians. That was the time that the Australians were given a clear message that at a neutral venue and with neutral umpires, Sri Lanka could beat them. Most Sri Lankans believe that sledging should not have any part in the sport. But leaders like Ranatunga believed in giving the Australians a taste of their own medicine whenever they had an opportunity. When the Australians were in Colombo in 1999 soon after winning the World Cup, Steve Waugh was fixed by television presenter Brian Thomas. "Steve, you guys play fantastic cricket. The Australian team captained by you is so exciting to watch. But tell me, why do you have to sledge?" Thomas asked in one of his shows. "Why are you complaining mate?" Waugh hit back. "You guys have got the biggest sledger in world cricket. One Arjuna Ranatunga is equal to 11 Australians," Waugh added. The Waugh brothers have been involved in quite a few charities in Sri Lanka without ever trying to get public attention for it. But more than individual contributions, itÃÔ how the whole of Australia stood up soon after the tsunami disaster springs to mind. In less than a week after disaster struck the Sri Lanka coast on the 26th of December in 2004, Australians were busy arranging to play a charity game to help raise funds for the victims of the disaster. Stars from all over the world flocked to Australia for the charity game and to a large extent that helped most Sri Lankans to change their attitude towards Australian cricket and public.

Square Drive Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 elaborate smart ****..tell us why india failed 'miserably' ? if we did your cricketers would be jobless. i mean we make your cricketers captains of IPL team, we get this stupid rant..f'n vermins. What I said was "overall approach from each country towards the game", which can include something like BCCI destroying Indian cricket itself. So another reason I dislike Indian cricket the most is, some of their fan's reading comprehension skills are very poor :finger:

Well done

Spiderguy252 Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 LOL @ most fans hating on SL and Pakistan. Wonder what we Lankans did to u??? Sure SLC is failing badly and have no gratitude to the so-called ever so great "helping hand", but doesn't mean the players and fans don't have gratitude at all...Our players let you win our home series as well as a WC! Our fans accepted you beat SL without the "Oh, we don't have Murali anymore" excuse...What kind of gratitude r u guys looking for? U want us to bow down to your feet and say some Indian ritual??? LOL mostly at the arrogant players comment, when we actually accept our losses and acknowledge the opposition team most of the time! Rarely have I seen an arrogant SL player who thinks he's God! And lastly, the annoying fans bit...India just lost a home series against England and Pakistan...there is Dhoni's house...go burn it... Why have you come here? Just stay in your island and focus on bombing your friends.
