disappointing result saturday but not too discouraging as regards tournament progress. team batting 2nd in day nighters at the Premadasa always have their work cut out.
and we were missing our #1 bowler so Pak's total to chase was bigger than it would've been with malinga. still only fell 11 runs short so can take some satisfaction in that defeat.
the remaining concern is that kapu and silva have both had one chance so far and both fucked it (in different ways). there's no chandimal in the squad or kandamby/another batsman, so we could really do with one of these two finding form.
