Match State: Match start scheduled for 3pm local time (11am GMT)
Good day all, we have the fourth Cherry Blossom Cup in Sharjah game
for you featuring the Kenya and Sri Lanka. The other teams in this
quadrangular are Zimbabwe and Pakistan.
Yesterday Zimbabwe defeated Kenya is a tensa match. Sri Lanka is
trying to rebuild around a younger team and have also called in a
replacement player Gamage for Chaminda Vaas who has a bad ankle.
In this tourney each team will be playing each other once and
today's game starts at 11:00GMT, a day/nighter to be played in a
sultry Sharjah Stadium with the final on Apr 10th.
After the three games so far the points table is headed by Pakistan
with 11 points, second is Zimbabwe with 5 and Kenya and SL with 1
each, so this is a crucial game with both trying for points.
To catch up with all the news and teams in this tournament please

03/OD_TOURNEYS/CBSC/ where the squads section contains details of
all the players and particularly the
lesser known ones in all the teams.
Sharjah as a cricket venue has grown year by year and last year
also hosted a Test series between Australia and Pakistan and this
Cup is a regular event.
The organisers invited Kenya and Zimbabwe to play a quadrangular
after South Africa withdrew for security concerns. Normally this
annual April event would
be a tri-nation between Pak, RSA and SL.
Weather, well as we said yesterday is going to be hotter reaching
90 with temperatures over the next few days going up more plus
there is some dew in the evening.
This is the 195th ODI at Sharjah!
The pitch has been dealt with after some pieces had flown out of it
and its very hard, so still good for batting with some assistance
to spin
The normal Sharjah sheen is not there but experts say its still a
235 250 track

Sri Lanka breezed through to a huge 129 run win and now lie second
with 7 points
Zimbabwe have 5 and Pakistan have 11 so looks very likely that this
will be Pak v SL final
Kenya suffered today due to their openers getting out very quickly
We have the ceremonies and Steve Tikkolo says, he thought they did
well to restrict SL to 256 and is happy with his legspinner
Most boundaries to Sangakkara
Highest scorer award to Sangakkara
