Bangladesh winners Sri Lanka in 2018 – By Trevine Rodrigo (Melbourne) Sri Lanka’s stunning turnaround in Bangladesh has restored some confidence in their fans and if the ensuing T20 triangular involving India, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh in Sri Lanka goes by the script a second place to India will attest their steady incline. Realistically, the Sri Lankans riding the crest of a wave after their clean sweep in Bangladesh, could have made the world sit up and take notice if they won this home Nidahas T20 tri- series after a comfortable win over arch rival India in the first game. But their new expectations received a jarring reminder that none of their opponents are easy beats as Bangladesh went on to prove by humbling the hosts in their own back yard. This was followed by a loss to India in the second game and Sri Lanka now have their fate ...

Hathurusinghe brings glad tidings to Sri Lanka cricket – By Trevine Rodrigo (Melbourne) Trevine Rodrigo (Melbourne) Chandika_Hathurusinghe Kusal Mendis in Action Looking at Sri Lanka’s new-found confidence with the same group of players now showing their real potential is proof enough that there is no lack of talent in the Island nation. Just the inability of those guiding their fortunes being able to work on their mindset and subtle tinkering of their talent. The bowling which was of real concern appears to have been sorted out with the available talent led by veterans Suranga Lakmal and Rangana Herath at the helm ably supported by emerging stars Dhananjaya De Silva and Dilruwan Perera helping re-shape a reasonable attack. But what has been most heartening is the increasing consistency of their batsmen who hammered the Bangladesh attack for 713 for 9 in reply to the hosts 513. ...

Sri Lanka……. Whipping boys of world cricket – BY TREVINE RODRIGO IN MELBOURNE Chandika Hathurusinghe Sri Lanka’s current form suggests that they are in the worst place since gaining Test status in 1982 and sporadic bursts such as the unlikely series win over Pakistan in the Arab Emirates throws a shadow over the actual happenings in the oil rich nation. To even suggest that they are capable of beating anyone in the top ten at the moment is laughable let alone possible as the current series against the world’s top team India, is proving in no uncertain terms. All the excuses thrown around about departing stars is now wearing thin as the Island nation struggles to find genuine talent with a tag of consistency attached to it as they offer themselves as cannon fodder to everyone they come up against. Over the past two years Sri Lanka have managed ...

A true reflection of Sri Lanka’s rich heritage of musical talent Vintage performance at the Grand on Princes By TREVINE RODRIGO IN MELBOURNE It’s little wonder when you hear bands of the caliber of Desmond and the Clan who dominated the music scene in Sri Lanka many decades ago, that the newer bands of today have had to strive to be as good or even better to gain acceptance and recognition from music lovers these days. In a master stroke that was hatched as an idea by Sri Lanka’s versatile icon of many decades, Desmond De Silva in consultation with wife and event coordinator Phyllis managed to rope in his former band mates ...
