Presentation
Angelo Mathews: Cannot really do much, treat to watch MJ bat, apart from our fielding we could not have done too much. No panic here, we need one other win to make it to the semi-finals.
Mahela Jayawardene, winning captain and the man of the match: It was a good performance, good to bat up the order and spend some time up there. The pitch was doing something upfront, we thought 150 would be a good score, the way Weeraratne batted helped us get to the final score. We need to make sure we maintain those standards, not difficult in a tournament like this, bowlers keep putting it in the right place. We will lose a few players in the next few days so we need to plan for the business end of the tournament
Easy win for the Wayamba United takes them to number one in the points table, two more than the Nagas. MJ will be my man-of-the-match for his sizzling 90 and leading them to the win. But we will wait for the presentation to check that out.
