As an indian watching the highlights of 96 semi final against Sri Lanka and hearing stories about it from parents hurts but trust me it always brings a smile on my face of how a cricket team from a war torn nation made their people proud...same for last year's Asia cup victory..Sri Lanka is a very awe inspiring team

When our motherland, Sri Lanka 🇱🇰 was hit by Tsunami in 2004, Mr. Shane Warne was one of the biggest stars to visit here and bring a lot of help from all around the world for the the needed families, especially the children. That alone proves there's nothing permanent in the great game of Cricket, when it comes to the rivalry or any other conflicts that happen on field. Thank you for your kindness! 🫶 Hope Aussies will tour here soon and have a great time like in the last occasion.

This was by far the best coverage of Sri Lanka’s 96’s glory. They changed cricket forever. Ranatunga was an absolute pioneer who took brilliant tactical decisions, built the team, nurtured them like a father figure, and fought against oppressions like a true lion. You correctly pointed out - without Jayasuriya’s destructive approach- there wouldn’t any of what followed in the upcoming years and decades.

One important to note is that at that point a civil war was going on in Sri Lanka between the Sri Lankan Army and the Tamil Tigers. The war actually caused quite a lot of divisions between the majority Sinhalese population and the minority Tamils. Murali, being the youngest and the only Tamil player in the squad, receiving supporting from the a team full of Sinhaleses, really helped in promoting national unity.

8:49 the earliest cricket story I was told of was by my uncle, who'd gone to Kotla to watch this game. After India has batted and set a formidable score, he went to take a leak during the innings break. There was a huge line, apparently, but he was calm that the Lankans would take their time in the first few overs. When he'd relieved himself, he came back to see Sri Lanka at 55 in the first 5 overs. It was something no one in the crowd had seen before, Jayasuriya and Kaluwitharna ripped our bowlers to absolute pieces. People were stunned.

In the shadowy realm of Cricketania, where bats creak and balls haunt, the Indian fanbase's egos cast a spooky spell on their own team's fortunes. Despite the Indian team's ghostly good performance, a growing crowd of spectators turned into disenchanted specters, their love fading like mist. Indian RU-vidrs and TikTokers, brewing their cauldrons of toxic potions, hexed teams with their digital curses. Meanwhile, the Aussies, like wizards of the willow, rose from the ashes to seize victory, cheered on by a massive, 130,000-strong army of phantoms, not just there for mere mortals, but for the true sorcery of cricket. "You always pick pitches bewitched for Indian bats, don't you?" taunted the spirits. "Such a typical charm of third-world sorcerers, always conjuring up money spells." Ghosts from every nation joined in a spectral chorus, rooting for Australia's triumph, eager to hush the overwhelming thunder of the crowd. It was a spine-chilling day for indian cheaters lmao (pitch doctoring, bcci controlling icc) a moment of eerie awakening for aussie warriors. (can't buy the aussies, we are too rich, we have gold) And oh, the ghastly antics of the Indian fanbase! Like mischievous poltergeists, they haunted Pat Cummins and other Australian players on Instagram. Such third-class, spine-tingling shenanigans from fans!

Aravinda's momentum shifting innings in the semifinals against India, breaking the partnership removing both set batters when Australia were sailing at 137/1 in just 26 overs, and finally the world cup winning unbeaten century, easily makes him the greatest allrounder batsman in the history of Sri Lankan cricket.

In my opinion, the Sri Lankan line up in 2006-7 was a much stronger side when you consider the skill level compared to the 96 team, but they missed something the 96 team possessed, that grit and fighting spirit. 2009 world cup was theirs to take, but missed that second coming in that final. They were on top of the world before that world cup.

This was my first cricket world cup. I was 4 but I remember both the semi final loss and the group stage loss of this world cup for India. In the group stages, I thought it was a clinched deal when both Tendulkar and Azharuddin (our only two good batsmen in the team) played a brilliant innings, however Sri Lanka just rampaged past it. But Aravinda De Silva deserves a lot of plaudits for his performance in the semis and finals of this tournament. He doesn't get the credit he deserves but he pretty much stopped the batting order from collapsing for Sri Lanka in the two crunch games.

The season before, we had the tour of a mediocre England and feeble Zimbabwe side, so much so that we had Australia A playing in a four team "triangular" series, with both Aussie sides in the finals. The season after, we had just been through a dour test series with an uninspiring Pakistan and when Sri Lanka arrived and started blazing away, they were an absolute breath of fresh air. Everybody wanted to bat like "KALUUUU!!!"
