Sri Lanka demolished Ireland, so maybe they can beat Australia. Pakistan is still trying to find a new captain, Shoaib Malik is considered the front runner.

Another coach is scalped:

Bennett King resigns as West Indies coach

More bizarre speculation about Bob Woolmer:

Snake venom may have killed Woolmer

But finally his family gets the body:
Woolmer's body allowed to go home

On the field, New Zealand is currently playing Sri Lanka, while Australia is still considered the favorite to win it all.

I hate the Australian dominance of cricket of late, but I'm sorry, they will be almost unbeatable for Sri Lanka....
