Thursday, 31 March 2011
COLOMBO, March 30, 2011 (AFP) - Sri Lanka's national press showed rare unity Wednesday in hailing the national team's qualification for the World Cup final after beating New Zealand in a tense last-four encounter.
"Sri Lanka in ICC final again," said Colombo's Daily Mirror in a front page splash.
The same theme was repeated in the main Sinhala, Tamil and English language national dailies.
"Lankans stuff the Kiwis to enter finals," said the Daily News.
