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.
