Well, as close to
the perfect game from New Zealand. They probably would have preferred
one of their set batsmen to go on and notch a three figure score, but they’ll
be satisfied that they start the World Cup with a professional performance.
Sri Lanka have issues, not least in
the bowling department, where Malinga looks a pale shadow of his former self.
Have Sri Lanka made an error in keeping him on this tour? He’ll no doubt bowl
himself into form - there are more than enough games - but 10 overs, 0 for 84,
is a huge worry.
Still, no need for total doom and
gloom just yet. Thanks for joining me - I’m off to feel real again
