Cricket lovers everywhere haven`t had enough of Tillakaratne Dilshan`s audacious scoop over the wicketkeeper yet and they are already being treated to a second unconventional shot from another Sri Lankan batsman. Mahela Jayawardene took innovation in batting to a higher plane by playing a reverse sweep with the back of his bat against Jacob Oram during the Super Eights match versus New Zealand at Trent Bridge. He bent down low, got into position to play the shot, and just when we expected him to switch his bat around, he simply let the ball go off the back, placing it fine enough to beat the man at short third man.

Angelo Mathews` one-man volleyball-style acrobatic display did momentarily flummox the umpires, but after a brief delay they concluded that no six-action had occurred. Yet the chaps in the Sky commentary box were not sure. Nasser Hussain knows which way up to hold a book and he had apparently been scouring the laws for a definitive answer, without success. Had the umpires dropped a clanger? I decided to venture into the arcane and mysterious world of cricket lore myself. After literally five seconds` searching, I located Law 19 on boundaries. Ten seconds later, I had uncovered the incredible truth. The umpires were right. Dan Brown it wasn`t.

Prabhakaran has Malayali roots, say kin in Kerala


POONTHALATHAZHAM (KOLLAM): A lady in Kerala has claimed that LTTE leader Velupillai Prabhakaran, who is spearheading the fight for a separate Tamil eelam in Sri Lanka, is her first cousin and that he has Malayali roots.

Sitting in her distinctly lower middle class residence about 20 km from Kollam, 77-year-old Janaki Amma reminisces her childhood when she had the occasion to see her maternal uncle Velupillai, who she says is the father of Prabhakaran.

Government of United States did not wish to block the much-needed US $1.9 billion International Monetary Fund (IMF) loan to Sri Lanka in a bid to pressure Colombo to bring a complete halt to hostilities between the government and Tiger terrorists.

When The Nation queried on the matter, Public Affairs Officer at the Embassy of the United States of America in Sri Lanka, Jeffrey Anderson said that although his government was concerned about the civilians, it did not wish to `block` the loan.

I seems the final battle has started.

Good Luck Boyz! We owe you a big bebt.
