Intresting to see the head to head record of Australia v Sri lanka in ODI finals.
Benson & Hedges World Series 1995/96
Australia won best of 3 finals 2-0
World cup final 1996
Sri lanka won by 7 wkts
Singer Cup Final 1996
Sri lanka won by 50 runs
Aiwa Cup Final 1999
Sri lanka won by 8 wkts
VB series 2006
Australia won best of 3 finals 2-1
So Sri lanka have actually played 5 finals/grand final series
against Aussies and lead 3-2 |

Mark,
In 1996 we were 66/1 to against Aussies being fav. Fav. can have one bad game and that is what all needed.
I believe we can repeat that feat despite all the Western media bragging about cakewalk in a final for the aussies.
