Murali & Mendis, a formidable duo!

Murali and Mendis can be devastating on the subcontinental pitches. They can change the game at any moment.

Not that other teams do not have spinners. But Murali and Mendis can be matchwinners on turning tracks.

SL has a bright chance and they are the 4/1 favourites. With Mahela, Dilshan and Sanga leading batting and with Malinga and Kulasekhara as pacers, they are well placed with the home advantage.

Their only problem seems to be the middle order. If they can sort out this problem, they can reach the finals, as they did last time.
