AUSTRALIA OUT OF 20-20 CRICKET WORLD CUP

Monday witnessed the exit of two teams from the 20-20 world cup. One team is capable of beating any team in the world and the other team is all time winners of most of the world cups. Yes, Bangladesh, then the mighty Australia (now exaggerating “Australia” with the word mighty)
This is the earliest exit in any World Cup for Australia since they crashed out in the preliminary stage in 1992.

Australian Captain-Ricky Ponting

Man of the match Kumar Sangakkara destroyed the hopes of Australians and knocked them out from the super 8 stage.

Earlier Srilanka won the toss and decided to field first. Australia scored 159 runs in the stipulated 20 overs. Ponting(25 from 15 balls) , David Hussey(28 from 22 balls) and Mitchell Johnson(28 from 13 balls) contributed for Australia. Lasith Malinga and Ajantha Mendis took 3 wickets each.

IPL flourished the talents of players like Dilshan, Devilliers and Kallis. Dilshan opened the innings for Sri Lanka scored 53 runs from 32 balls which include 10 fours. Sangakkara played a sensible innings of 55 urns (42 balls) helped Srilanka to chase the target in 19.1 overs. Jehan Mubarak’s quick fire works (21 from 12 balls) make the target very easy.

So this is a beautiful revenge from the Lankans after their defeat in the World Cup Final against Australia.

Relax friend.
You can see ashes of Australians in the next world cup Cricket also. Asian idiots will easily destroy ponting & co in every match of the upcoming world cup. Do u know, Australian team is now engaged in fishing (the only section in which they now excel everybody) and Symonds is their brilliant coach for that great event.
