Repeat 96! Bring back the World-Cup!

Arjuna with 96 World Cup

Santh came to the crease and first he marked the middle-stump. Kalu waited at the other end, to see another thundering Jayasooriya ton. Every Sri Lankan stayed glued to the televisions and prayed for another Jasooriya ton.

But both Kalu and Jayasooriya departed quickly. Lankans started to feel the tense. But Aravinda and Gurusinghe didn't give up. They hammered Aussie bowlers all around the ground.

For the first time in history, a Sri Lankan team won a World-cup, with the winning late-cut of captain Arjuna Ranathunge. Since then Lankans got Cricket in their blood. Many young players emerged and a good cricketing culture born here. 

Everybody knew that Mahela would play for Sri Lanka since he captained Nalanda. Sangakkara came from nowhere and even the people who hated him at first, saying he got a political pull to get in to the team began to support him. 

Young gut called Mathews, won over many cricketing hearts all over the globe. Slinger Malinga rocks form the day he showed up. 

One hero of the 96 triumph still remains in the team. He is none-else than our own Legendary Murali. I can hardly remember Kulasekara missing the line and length.

It seems that we got every thing, but one. What is that??? The cup that counts. The cup which We deserves to bring home! Bring it guys! We badly need it. We wanna go on rallies once again. We wanna rock once again!!!
