Look left, look right, do nothing
Sri Lankan cricket is at crossroads.We could go left, keep picking players past their due date and hope that they deliver once every 2 years or so. Heap praises on them and talk about how we can't go forward as a team without them.

Increasing the Charge
The Big Four finally in the same match – every one of them. Pity it was not all in the same innings, otherwise it could have been a different story. And pity none of the contributions were as eye-catching as Zaheer Khan’s and Harbhajan Singh’s fifties in the first innings, but it is interesting that the side that had 156 and 123 as its highest individual scores could not beat a side that had 57 and 54 as its highest scores (all in the first innings).

Things you didn't know about India v Lanka
Given the somewhat tumultuous ups and downs in the Test series, and the innumerable variables that have been introduced since, you wouldn’t want to stake anything too expensive on either of the teams.
Now ‘stats’ is a slightly scary word and may put unsettling images of thousands of complex numbers floating around. But it is quite simple here, really. Hell, if you are smart enough to understand cricket, you should get this, no problem. A little study of some recent stats involving both teams, using some interesting tools such as Squadstats, puts forward some curious revelations regarding which way the ODI series could go.

The Age Factor
A common topic of discussion when talking of T20 is the relevance of the age of the players. There is probably no clear answer (yet) about whether or not age makes any difference. The following stats may or may not provide that answer, but what it will do is provide some insights.

The IPL XI
It is a reasonably routine and cliched idea but it is a great deal of fun so let us just do it.
The difference this time, of course, is that the list is being picked not arbitarily but based purely on the ranking points of the players, so it probably provides some kind of tangible, fact based response.
