A well researched speech by Sajith.

The situation is quite serious, only those who have experienced the disease will know about it. It is a long drawn battle for the patient as well as the family.

Action should be taken to stop the spread of this disease immediately regardless of our political stance. The government should be transparent on this and the Opposition must provide the fullest support.

Come, sit with me and enjoy a sumptuous Sri Lanka meal my friends.

Brilliant wicket keeper.

Absolutely brilliant !!!

A rare clip!

It took nearly 40 years for a batsman to score the first double-century in one-day international cricket but less than two years for the second. Virender Sehwag, the batsman most touted to break Sachin Tendulkar`s record for the highest individual ODI score, didn`t merely break it - he shattered it and raised the bar so high that it`s hard to imagine anyone, apart from Sehwag himself, raising it higher.

Unlike Tendulkar in Gwalior, Sehwag wasn`t running out of time as he raced towards 200 in Indore. He got there in the 44th over and had made 219 off 149 balls by the time he was dismissed in the 47th. And in one of cricket`s stranger coincidences, both ODI double-centuries were scored in the same Indian state - Madhya Pradesh - at venues less than 500 kilometres apart.

Owner`s remark:

Dear All
Check out this hilarious remake of Bony M in South Indian Style. This was given to me by a friend of mine. By who, when and where it was recorded not known yet. If you know more info on this video, please update me.

Much Love Solomon

For the first time in cricket history you will hear a cricket commentary in Arabic language by Dr Muhammad Saeed Fazal Karim.

Cricket is here to stay in the desert, started in Sharjah and now spread to Dubai and Abu Dhabi with international stadiums to boot. Sharjah alone hosted more than 200 international games since 1984, including a couple of test matches.

This is a very rare clip of the maestro, taken from a Sinhala movie.

The unique success of Muhammad Junaid Muhammad Lafir in winning the World Amateur Billiards Championship in Bombay, in November-December 1973, being victorious against all his opponents and also scoring the highest break of 859, is an achievement without parallel in the annals of Sport in Sri Lanka.

Thousands of Sri Lankan troops have launched a massive operation to rescue nearly a million people affected by floods in the central, north and eastern provinces.

The flooding has killed at least 13 people, officials said.

More than 28,000 troops, backed by transport helicopters and navy boats, are rescuing flood victims and delivering food, authorities said. It is the biggest troops operation since the defeat of Tamil Tiger rebels one-and-a-half years ago.
