Good to see Sanath captaining Ruhuna. Would love to see him in action again.

Will there be live coverage on TV?

Yeah, Angelo should have been made captain of one of the teams.

I dont understand why all the matches are at RPS? why dont they use Sooriyawewa, Pallekele and Dambulla - after spending 25 million USD, they should use those new stadiums.

@ Marcian: the reason why they are not playing any T20 matches in either Suriyawewa or Pallekele is They have to spend another 25 million to create man-machine player to hit a 6 in those grounds. Dude its 87 meters boundries we are talking about.... lol :P
I guess SLC was thinking to play golf on these grounds during the off-seasson of cricket. Good smart thinking eahhh....!!

Sooriyawewa dround is too big..only Gayle can hit 6s there lol

our players like Chamara useless silva,Kan dumb bi & Prassanna Jayawardene cant even clear 30 yard circle..lol

Brilliant news! Angelo Matthews should be captaining a side, but this will bring in revenue to the country and we will be able to see all the stars shine in Sri Lanka. I hope this gets televised.
