Congratulations Australia - Finally it's over!
Australia were clinical throughout this tournament and they bludgeoned the Lankan bowlers in the final as well. Too bad the weather didn't allow for a complete game, but at least the winner was obvious towards the end. Playing in complete darkness for the last 10 overs was the stupidest thing I've ever seen. This WC has been the worst that I've witnessed.
I guess we'll find out over the next few days about what really went on between the umpires, Ponting and and Jayawardene, but for now, it's all about Australia. They rocked the entire time, they won convincingly and thoroughly deserve the accolades.
Somehow, or the other, the rest of the World needs to figure out just how to beat these bastards...

Wrong to say SL batted in darkness only over last ten overs. TV commentators failed to tell us that it was earlier than that. It would have been fairer to have the game continue on the reserve day. That is what the organisers did not want to happen. If it had been the Aussies batting second may be we might have had the game developing differently
Well, if you take away Gilchrist's innings and provide even conditions, this match would have been a lot closer.
But, I suppose the thing with the Australians is that someone will always setp forward and play an innings like that.
Bastards.
