Sorry Englishmen..............

Dear Straus,

We are so sorry about your defeat, as a Srilankan suporter I too didnt expect a defeat as this much.Usually what ever or whoever play the game , there is something which

especially effect on a game. That is luck. All above it there is somthing which what god has decided earlier.

Earlier you got the luck when you won the toss. Then luck returned to SriLanka.2 wickets went down suddenly. Then the luck returned to you as our fielders did mistakes in the field by letting 4 chances to Mogan.I agreee that we had a poor fielding site today. Then the luck stayed & told, sorry I cant leave from the Srilankan site, I must stand with them till the end. So what to do gentleman, by the way you are my second favorite. Because you are someone who plays the game as a game. I could see you with smiling when Dilshan's bat was thrown from his hands while you are loosing. I can see the "Gentelmen's Cricket" from your team whenever you play against whatever team.

We know that you are the only team who plays the sensible cricket in this world cup. Every game of yours brought us a first class nail biting finishes in the games you play , it didnt matter whether you won, lost or tie it. You won some matches those were predicted winning them some much hard, & also you lost some matches which anyone predicted to be. All in alll everything should have a finish, its nature. Hey guys don't give up your self beliefs, I am sure you wont.

You and your guys dont have much pride. I especially like it a lot. This is your second defeat against Srilanka in quarter final stages in a worldcup, earlier was in 1996. Really I too want you to play in a final in world cup, although you won the T20 world cup.This time also you need to go home only with the dreams as usual. I have nothing to say other than 'Better luck next time'. Not only your people, I will also miss you & your team a lot.

Regards,

A true Srilankan fan

who loves England team well.
