Thanks Jayasuriya for all your contributions to bring glory to
Sri Lanka. You have given us immense joy, now do not turn that joy in to sorrow.
Your successors are not as good as you during your prime, perhaps they never will be, as they have shown in this tournament. None could match your stunning good old performances of with bat and ball. Those were all beautiful memories for us to rlate to our grandchildren one day.
Therefore do not ruin it for us. Try to remain as our hero always. We will forget about your minor blemishes and we will discuss about your world records, how you set the trend in one day
cricket for the rest of the world to follow. You are without a peer in Sri Lanka cricket.
We want to keep those memories as joyous as possible. So Sanath ...
