I don’t think India can win, based on their recent results but Sri Lanka could well take out the series.

I can’t understand the love for David Warner and Brett Lee really should retire, in my view.

Opinions?

Warner’s innings in Hobart changed a whole lot of thinking about him.  
Lee should have been pensioned off before the 2009 Ashes series.  
They can’t really be thinking of him for the next World Cup.  
I think if India boots out the old guard they might pinch it, but that’s not a likely scenario.  
It’s probably the best credentialed tri-series we’ve had, notwithstanding the lack of popular enthusiasm for the games. It’s been close and competitive without reaching any great heights.

Sri Lanka should win it .

After the way we played yesterday, I’m fully expecting a Sri Lankan win. And what’s with having the final two matches in Adelaide? Of all places.
