A highly regarded fieldsman, Maxwell dropped Nasir Jamshed at first slip on a duck on Tuesday night, then watched the left-hander score a match-winning 55.

We have our plans against Gayle says Ajantha Mendis

But Sri Lanka’s Ajantha Mendis is confident that his side can handle the towering Jamaican.

Ireland name their squad for the ICC world T-20


John Mooney misses the ICC World Twenty20 finals in Sri Lanka after suffering a serious finger injury which will rule him out of action for 3 months.
30 year old Mooney fractured his finger and also suffered tendon damage while playing for his club North County.
Ireland coach Phil Simmons agrees it’s a serious blow for both the player and Ireland as the squad for Sri Lanka was announced: “It’s disappointing for both John (Mooney) and the team. He’s suffered two finger injuries and this latest one won’t heal in time for the start of the tournament. He’s been a major part of the team for the last 3 or 4 years and it’s disappointing we have to go without him.
