Indeed! They would be the team to beat.

Judst had a chat with my friend who says Sri sent a weakened team but for me it liooks like the future of Sri Lanka vs The Future of Zimbabwe. And by no means is the team weak> Can't wait for the contest.

I think Sri-lanka is going to struggle.
Reasons
1)Their new captain T.Dilshan is not in form and he cannot maintain his cool.Dont remember when but the last time when he captained the side he was horrible,yelling at everyone.Sri-lankan players wont like such a personality as captain for sure.
2)No Mahela Jayawardane(Max run getter of the world cup)
AND
3)No Malinga.So the indians and Zimbabweans dont have to worry about an unusual action.
The people to watch out will be
Mendis
Mathews
Kapugedera

To the people to look out for I would add
Samaraweera
Kulasekara
Silva

And I hope Dilshan maintains his current form.

Having watched Kulasekara bowl now for almost 5 years i haven't seen a huge improvement in either his pace or action. He just seems to be a little medium pacer to me, and somebody our boys can target for sure ! Matthews seems to be in the same molde as well, though he can be a real danger with the bat. On the batting side of things, Matthews in dangerous, the bowling, not so dangerous.
