i think malinga was still injured, but was a bit rude to rest murali and vaas. i guess the aussies do it to everyone else so a bit of their own medicine. sl were already guaranteed a semi final spot so wasn't a must win.
depending on who wins what we could end up playing england in the 1st semifinal. wouldn't that be ironic if they knocked us out. more likely to be rsa though i think.
