Sri Lanka broke the world record for the highest one-day international total in their match against Netherlands at Amstelveen this week. Four days after battering England into submission at Headingley, they sauntered to 443 for 9, past the mark of 438 set by South Africa at Johannesburg to win the match against Australia after Australia had earlier in that match set a very short lived world record. This heady news was not reported widely, because there was no television, radio, internet, journalists, spectators.....or opposition. This despite the fact that there was full ODI status for the game. Wow over 8 an over. Look for some really competitive games in the West Indies when it comes to the World Cup. Hard wickets and short boundaries. Biff, Bash, Tonk.....
