Sri Lanka will win it imo.

I just can't see anybody(not even South Africa) getting a big score against their attack and i think they'll be able to knock off the scores posted against them.

TBH i cant see either team hitting runs against either attack i think SA win cause they will save an extra 20 runs in the field. Will be a awesome final though 2 very good 20/20 teams. For me SL need another top class batter to be best in the world by far they rely on Jayarwadne,Jayasuryia and Sangakarra and non of the 3 are consitent enough in this format but tbf no1 really is but SA have the drpth too about 9 in the batting lineuup

agree with much of that, Sri Lanka are past the peak of their powers for me - SA are a phenomenal unit all round so many potential match winners and freaks in the field

look at them todfay leave out kallis and still beat india. Defending modest total too you dont understand how good fielding can save you 20-30 runs thats were SL will struggle IMO

They've got Dilshan aswell mate who's probably the form T20 cricketer in the world at the minute.

You just never know though do you which makes it so exciting.

I can't wait for the semi's even if England aren't in them(maybe especially because England aren't in them).

thats true mate i missed him off but hes the type of batter who comes off or doesnt and more often than not he doesnt come off. I dont think the Sri Lankens will handle the pace of Steyn and Parnell it will be a awesome final tho. They are going to have their work cut out against the Windies though first Edwards will trouble them alot with the pace and bounce would like to seee SA kick on a bit at the start they seem to be a bit too slow in comparison to SL who have dilshan and jayasuryia must be the most destructive opening partnership in the world on thier day. This is why i love 20;20 the excitment it brings only time test cricket does is The Ashes

Dilshan is the top run scorer in the competition!!

I think Mendis, Murali, Malinga and co can keep it tight enough for Sri Lanka's batsman to win the game.

I see SA beating SL in the final, both have great sides but I feel SA just have the mental edge to grind out the win.

I can't help but look at South Africa and think back to both the NZ and India games when they've started the innings well only for it to fall away but both times they've still managed to defend the scores on the board.

I'm not sure they'll be able to do that against SL.

Saying that both have got tough games to get through first and against sides that have a real gamebreaker apiece in Umar Gul and Chris Gayle. Both of those could scupper either side on their own if they fire.
