Before that last ball Mahela came to Dilhara & asked him about his plan. Dilhara said that he wanted to bowl a slower. But Mahela forbid him & told him that Bopara was expecting a slower delivery so Dilhara changed his plan. Mahela's assumption was correct & Bopara missed that faster delivery. What an excellent tactician Mahela was, undoubtedly the best ever captain SL have produced till now ❤
Most important scene of this match was missed. Bopara was batting really well. In the last ball Dilhara came and didn’t deliver the ball. Instead he walked back. And nobody expected that. After that ball, bopara bowled out. ✌️
I'll not forget this match for two reasons. Both happened in the last ball. 1. Dilhara not delivering the ball after making the run all the way to the Crease 2. Ranjith Fernando, the Sri Lankan commentator, shouting "it's gone for 4, Boparaaa", only to realize that he has been bowled.

He really ruined that final ball/moment! Such a bad commentator, glad I don't hear too much from him these days. I could listen to Sangakkara's classy voice forever!
We were awful absolutely awful in Odis back then, had absolutely no idea how to construct innings at the top and middle order. 2007 World Cup was embarrassing.
Why is the pitch coloured like that?! 😶 I remember this game.... Dilhara's last ball was so epic. Had my heart in my mouth the whole time... Ranjith Fernando its gone for four oh no its bowled him 🤣🤣
This match is really unforgettable to me my heroess these days all our nation proud to be like this gentliment cricketers 💖💖💖💖🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 thanks for gives us pleasure past days..!!!!
