Australia v Sri Lanka | 12th match | CB Series 2008 | 1st Session
Sri Lanka 221 (Dilshan 62, Jayawardene 50, Bracken 4-29) beat Australia 208 (Gilchrist 83, Amerasinghe 3-44) by 13 runs http://www.hilalscricket.com/
Sri Lanka now hold the highest scores in all three forms of international cricket, adding the Twenty20 peak to their Test and one-day records.
The Kolkata rain ruined Sanath Jayasuriya's parade as the opening game of India's four-match one-day series against Sri Lanka was abandoned after torrential rain at the Eden Gardens. Having been sent in to bat by Rahul Dravid, Sri Lanka had made 102 for 3 from 18.2 overs when a heavy drizzle forced the players off and though the rain stopped, the outfield was far too marshy to risk further play. In the time available, Jayasuriya had raced to 63 from just 61 balls.
The scores are level last over 1 run to win!

August 2006, 2nd Test Match at the P. Sara' Stadium. Sanath Jayasuriya regains lost form by completly dismantling Shaun Pollock of South Africa. Pollock turned to bowling off spin towards the end of this test match as Sri Lanka managed to cross the winning line by a narrow margin.
"England were defeated not only by Sri Lanka. They were beaten by a plan of attack beyond their imaginations, and never dreamt about in their own "play-the-percentages" philosophy. As Mike Atherton conceded afterwards, Sri Lanka have suddenly be- come the foremost exponents of a new approach to one-day cricket, one which turns the conventional English version on its head. Their batsmen opt for vertical take-off in the first 15 overs, not the last 15, and only then do they throttle back. It seems to be a spectacular way to fly."

Sanath Jayasuriya 115 Vs West Indies | World Cup 2007 | Super8
37 year old Jayasuriya still keeps going! Immaculate destruction, The manner which Sanath keeps hitting the gaps is remarkable, shows how much thought is involved in his batting.
30 runs in an over is a remarkable feat but Sanath Jayasuriya has acheived this remarkable feat twice!
Some serious hitting by Sanath Jayasuriya.This knock is the fastest 20/twenty half century(50 Runs) another fantastic knock.
