Another 300+ chase and Sri Lanka were 4 down for less than 50. Champion Man Aravinda De Silva was once again the Lone Ranger who played brilliantly against the formidable Australian attack who went on to conquer the world. Aravinda De Silva pulled and flicked Brett Lee for two huge sixes to go with another couple against Andy Bichel and Brad Hodge.

Aravinda Silva is the number one batsman Sri Lanka has ever produced. Those who have seen him play live will testify to that

Aravinda De Silva is an underrated batsman. My dad loved to see him on the ground so much. Sri Lanka rarely toured New Zealand back then. But he watched every game they played in New Zealand. 90's cricket was the best. Too much talent. No any leagues or money based players. Sometimes there was aggression between players. But it was very entertaining to watch unlike modern rivalries. I didn't watch em live. But I've watched many 90's matches via YT. Those leagues kill the spirit of this lovely game. Ahh at least I enjoyed this game when it wasn't just a game. Love those vintage batsmen like Aravinda de Silva, Sanath Jayasuriya,Sachin Tendulkar, Javed Miendad,Brian Lara, Viv Richards,Rickey Ponting, Waugh, Rhodes and Fleming

Yeah but it was a meaningless innings. He went in at 2 for 46 chasing 319 and departed at 8 for 203 off 44.1, needing 116 more to win off 35 balls. Not far past the halfway point of his innings it was 5 for 138, needing 181 off 15 overs with all other specialist batsmen gone. Vintage Aravinda stroke play it may have been in theory, but this innings at no stage had any bearing whatsoever on the outcome of the match.

I think Aravinda is an extraordinary batsman. Present time batsmen in cricket world have to learn a variety of super class shots from Aaravinda. Look at the pace, look at the timing, look at the power he applies, look at how he navigates the direction of his shot, look how class and smart he uses the pace of the ball. Every shot super genius. Nowadays i see lots of smash hitters , but not this class, this is way beyond the hope. This is too rare , you can buy whatever u want with money ,but not a chance to see this style of extraordinary batting .my god,its the ultimate class of batting ❤️❤️🙏

The reason why I admire arvinda desilva so much was that the time he joined srilanka they hardly played any international cricket and when they did it was him taking the responsibility of while mediocre team , it was only after 1995 and 96 WC when Sri Lanka was taken as cricketing giant and they started to get more matches internationally, their test matches were almost non existent in 80s , so keeping these things in mind he has achieved so much , had they played more he would have been among the very very best , still for me he is the best batsman Sri Lanka ever produced

Simply unstoppable. He remained "not out" for most of innings. A gifted player who can either swiftly play with wrists or hit hard... He was a Nightmare for any bowler.... Bow this legend... I still see him as my idol...

One excellent character trait I see in Aravinda is he never stays in the wicket for the umpire’s decision if he knows he is out. He just walks away. That’s sportsmanship. Also a very good off spin bowler who would assist the team in difficult moments. He plays the shots very late. Great player! ❤

I don’t know why he didn't include ICC hall of fame Sachin, Sangakkara, Mahela are included. But this legendry Aravinda de Silva class ahead of them. Not only in the bat he is awesome spinner too , he is also an all-rounder.

One of the fantastic batsman the game has witnessed. His six through Square Leg against Bret Lee and Sachin's hook against Andrew Caddick are among the best. ( Both in the same tournament - 2003 World Cup)

I am from India. I used to love to see Arvinda play. That lazy elegance should not be confused with fitness. Professional cricketers will tell you how hard it was hitting sixes to PRIME Brett Lee on OLD BALL. There are lot of similarities with him and Rohit Sharma.

He was the best stroke player in cricket, even better than some of the masters of the game. That even was tending towards downfall in the early part of his career, he was trying too many shots before getting set in his innings. In the later part of his career, he corrected that and was so successful and looked brutal to watch

@raviyadumurthy Ай бұрын

Highly underrated batsman….had a nimble and correct footwork against fast bowling…fearless and calculative in approach. I remember, the 1st test match against India 1985 in Sri Lanka… Aravinda was young and an attacking batsman… Sri Lanka needed 123 to win with about 15 overs left in the match…came opening the innings and belted sixes and fours against Kapil’s bowling. Sri Lanka fell short of winning their first test match eventually. 2nd test, 2nd innings - Aravinda belted Indian bowling to every corner of the ground for a quick fire 75…helped declare early and Sri Lanka won their first test match by 149 runs.

His pulling was outrageous. When Imran came back after a stress fracture injury in 1985, its Aravindas first series I think and in Pakistan. He hammered Imran for 6 with multiple outrageous pull shots. An absolute legend.
