Mahela to take legal action against ITN & Mud Sligging Mahinda Abesundara

Mahela Jayawardene, former captain who lead Sri Lanka to the final in 2007 world cup now  Vice- Captain of Sri Lanka team had taken a firm decesion to take legal action against Independent Television Network (ITN) for telecasting a programme that accused he had been involved in fixing the match played with Pakistan for money where he got out to Akthar for a very low score.


In the ‘Vimasuma’ programme telecasted after the news broadcast of the ITN, it accused former captain Mahela Jayawardene and middle order batsman Tilan Samaraweera were involved in match fixing and gave away the match for financial gains. Speaking to BBC Mahela has said he had instructed his lawyers to take measures to take legal action against the ITN for telecasting the programme as well as against mud sligging Mahinda Abesundara.


Most of the viewers of our site as well as many other online portal viewers were so sad to here when such a thing was done by a money crazy Mahinda Abesundara. Some suggest that he might have being forced to do such a thing by a very senior player who was in the last 30 but axed from last 15 for the World Cup 2011.

Protest by JVP in Sri Lanka - Is this the beginning of uprise in Sri Lanka ?

Lipton Circus would be another Cairo – says Oppostion JVP Member Tilvin Silva (Sri Lanka) 


The protest movement that commenced today would not be the last but is the beginning of the struggle that would end the government and the capitalist system that suppresses the masses says the Leader of the JVP Somawansa Amarasinghe. He said this speaking at the agitation held at the end of the ‘protest walk’ that marched from Campbell Park to Lipton Circle today (1st). 


The JVP organized the ‘Protest March’ to demand the government to bring down the cost of living that goes up day by day. The Leader of the JVP Somawansa Amarasinghe addressing the massive crowd said, “The President and the current government gave a promise to the masses in this country in 2005. If this promise had been kept the prices of essential commodities would not go up today. Vegetables would not be so costly. The President, as the Minister of Finance, has increased taxes; has imposed heavy fines. As a result people from North to South and from East to West are distressed.

Pro Dictator Muammar Gaddafi forces struggle to regain control of strategic cities

- Human Rights Groups fears that their will be a possible genocide sooner or later- 


Government opponents, the protestors in the Libyan city of Az Zawiyah have successfully repulsed an attempt by crual forces loyal to Dictatot Muammar Gaddafi to retake the city close to the capital, Tripoli, in six hours of fighting overnight, witnesses say.


Tuesday's claims follow reports that government forces attacked the city from the west and the east, and that fighter jets bombed an ammunition depot in the eastern city of Ajdabiya. There was no word on casualties in Az Zawiyah, which is 50km west of Tripoli. "We will not give up Az Zawiyah at any price,'' one witness said.


"We know it is significant strategically. They will fight to get it, but we will not give up. We managed to defeat them because our spirits are high and their spirits are zero."


The rebels, who include army forces who defected from the government, are armed with tanks, machine guns and anti-aircraft guns. They fought back pro-Gaddafi troops who attacked from six directions using the same weapons.

Karu Jayasuriya must be made the interim leader, until Sajith takes over the leadership says Shiral Lakthileka

-The Sajith-Karu combination has given a great strength to the UNPers who are working towards a future victory - Shiral L


Oppostion main party UNP Western Provincial Councilor, Shiral Lakthileka addressing a public rally in Kadawatha on the 27th saturday said that Karu Jayasuriya should be appointed as the party's interim leader in order to re-build the party voter base and to re-unite it until Sajith Premadasa takes over the party leadership.


Shiral Lakthileka further said that if such a move is done, many problems faced by the party at present could be resolved with time and would bring unity to the party without having several fraction with in the party, which is the aspiration of every UNP member opposing the current administration headed by leader similar to a  dictator.


Time is now ripen to defeat President Percy Mahinda's government which is misleading the public, anti-people, swollen headed and unable to understand the problems faced by the people every day. Dowbfall of Rajapakse regime could only be brought down by a people's struggle like those that took place in Tunisia, Egypt and in progress in Libya & several other Middle Eats Countries.

Sri Lanka Wins Over Kenya - Hatrick for Malinga !

-Lasith Malinga the slinger picked up a hat-trick on his way to his six wickets- second hat-trick in world cups ! -

Kenya won the toss & batted first but were bowled out for 142 runs ( Group A match ) at the R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo. Collins Obuya and David Obuya scored half centuries making it difficult for the bowlers at one stage but non of the other players were able to score double figures, with four batsmen getting ducks. 

Malinga got six wickets for 38 runs, he is the first bowler to pick up two hat-tricks in history of World Cup, it was a a one man show as each of his victims got out without the assistance of any fielders. Kulasekara, Mathews & Murali shared one wicket each. He did take another hat-trick (+ another wicket in next bowl !) in 2007 world cup against South Africa.  Sri Lanka reached 143 in 18.4 overs very comfortably. ( Dilshan 44[30], Tharanga 67n.o[59], 27no[24]. 





Reagrding the R Premadasa Pitch


As we were saying about this so many times, it's nice to see that Veteran Commentator Ramees Raja (One Former Pakistan Capatain) too pointed out that it's unfair for the way the pitch behaves against the team batting second, under lights. Also he said it's not nice to have a pitch where toss is playing the crusual role in the match. He observed this when Dilshan got out with a short pitch dilevary which came in sharply & took the edge when TM tried to play to third man region.


SO it's vital for Sri Lanka to win the toss against Aussies & put a good decent total on board to win or else it will be another match like what we so with Pakistanis.
