'Sri Lanka making the World Cup interesting'

Not many fancied the ninth-ranked ODI side to beat the top-ranked team, especially after they set a target of 233. Sri Lanka, inspired by Lasith Malinga, went on to pull off the upset of the tournament so far.Wow Wow Wow Today v England Team Work was the winner ...

WOW. Hope this is the catalyst for the team to believe even more. Now for the batsmen to respond with heart— Kumar Sangakkara (@KumarSanga2) June 21, 2019 Malinga is a champion. Fantastic win for Sri Lanka. Showing what they are capable of #ENGvSL pic.twitter.com/w70tT5bsKJ— Mohammad Kaif (@MohammadKaif) June 21, 2019 The close contest came at a time when many thought the top four, consisting of Australia, New Zealand, India and England, were unlikely to be challenged.Brilliant stuff from Sri Lanka.What they didn't do with the bat, they more than compensated with the ball.Malinga and Co. were disciplined & troubled the batsmen.With England still needing to play Australia, New Zealand & India, the #CWC19 may throw up a few surprises.#ENGvSL pic.twitter.com/T4mHATZiz2— Sachin Tendulkar (@sachin_rt) June 21, 2019 WATCH on Hotstar (India only) - Fall of wicketsSensational defence of a small total. Sri Lanka making the world cup interesting. Whats next guys? #ENGvSL #CWC19— Shoaib Akhtar (@shoaib100mph) June 21, 2019 Well done Sri Lanka. Fantastic win. Malinga and Matthews, showing what experience can do in crunch situations. Makes the table interesting #ENGvSL— VVS Laxman (@VVSLaxman281) June 21, 2019 My gosh. What a game. Well played played Sri Lanka. . A couple of teams at least are thankful for your magnificent effort today. Happy for Malinga.— ian bishop (@irbishi) June 21, 2019 Great win by #srilanka no one gave them chance to win against the mighty English team. Malinga was at his best with the new ball as well old. #ENGvsSL #WorldCup— Irfan Pathan (@IrfanPathan) June 21, 2019 Excellent performance from Sri Lanka to beat England. England have India, Australia and New Zealand to play with and will have to win 2 out of these 3.World Cup is alive #EngvSL— Virender Sehwag (@virendersehwag) June 21, 2019 What a thrilling game today! In-form Malinga's 4 for 43 leads Srilanka to a convincing victory. Well deserved, Srilanka. The second half of the tournament is getting tight. #ENGVSL #CWC19 pic.twitter.com/QS5Hn4m0Ni— Suresh Raina (@ImRaina) June 21, 2019 Don't we all prefer these type of matches?Wow what a game for Sri Lanka beating England I like games like these 240/50 kinds not 300/350 kind of matches.. well done @OfficialSLC #WorldCup2019— Harbhajan Turbanator (@harbhajan_singh) June 21, 2019 England still World Cup favourites despite the hiccup?Hiccup! NO PROBLEM AT ALL! England still — Kevin Pietersen(@KP24) June 21, 2019
