De Silva backs Sri Lanka chances
De Silva's century led Sri Lanka to victory in the 1996 final
World Cup winner Aravinda de Silva has tipped Sri Lanka to emulate the success of his 1996 side in the forthcoming tournament in the Caribbean.
"I honestly feel this side have a better chance than we had in 1996.
"The bowling looks good, the batting has depth and the fielding looks sharp. My money is on Sri Lanka," he said.
Sri Lanka begin their campaign with what should be an easy win over Bermuda in Trinidad on 15 March and then take on Bangladesh and India.

Date : 2010-05-17 12:37:41Read the first chapter of this book!?
It was raining. It was freezing and all I was doing was studying, under a tree with a poncho on. I was so focused that I didn’t even think about how worried Lem might be. Then the next thing I know was hearing car tires screech and a bunch of people honking horns. Then, it was all a blur.
When I arrived at the house, I first smelled the dew. Its odor smelled like wet dog, but I least we had it here. April was getting things out of the car. June was still in the car, shaking because she was nervous. July was doing her hair and September was yelling at her phone. Now, the first thing you might get in your head when you read this is that they’re my siblings, my answer to that is no. They were my cousins, but not my legal guardian. So, there I was smelling the dew and hearing the wind and trying to adapt to this new place. The only problem was, I didn’t want to adapt as the old Tory, and I wanted to be a different Tory. I had chosen about everything possible you could think of. Clothes, movies, colors, you name it. I was no longer the pitiful, crybaby Tory. I was someone I admired.
I was planning my new life since I boarded the plane and left Lem. As soon as I stepped on the plane, I drew out a red notebook and wrote down every detail about the old Tory. I scanned it, and then did the opposite. For example, if I liked chicken as the old Tory I would love turkey as the new Tory. I sat down by a man, he smelled of strong cologne. He was wearing a tuxedo, his hair was slicked back and he was reading an article about fancy hotel rooms and how expensive some are. It must’ve been boring to him, because there on that very plane he slept. He snored, and worst of all talked in his sleep. He kept whispering this word: efficient. He was wearing cowboy boots, but I assumed they were more comfortable than his black, shiny shoes. I looked at him like he was a crazy guy, and then listened to the airplane music. You could either choose between country, classic, rock, pop and hip-hop. The old Tory would’ve chosen classical music over rock any day, but I wasn’t her anymore.
The old Tory might have been terrified of planes, but I was fearless. The last time I heard Lem would be the time I became the new Tory. So, as soon as I heard her say a final goodbye, I took a wonderful first breath. The air was smooth, and smelled of many odors.
Before the plane told us to buckle up, I was all confused about wear to sit. Tory would never been confused, but I was. The people looked at my ticket and pointed to a seat and I sat down there. When the flight began, I had my headphones on and I was too focused into the music to realize we were lifting off the ground and going in the sky. I was so quick; I was the first one off. Even though I wondered what the guy in the suit was going, I went inside the airport and I saw four faces that looked at me. With their eyes completely serious, their mouth quivering and their feet wobbling, I felt like I was being examined. I walked very slowly to them and the first thing I asked them wasn’t who they were.
“Do you have any five size shoes? These are giving me blisters,” I smiled and that’s how they knew me as Tory. I was a happy Tory.
“Yeah! Their red, the color you like? Lem sent me a whole list of things you dislike and like,” The girl was the tallest out of the four. She was the most energetic and her shoes looked like a giant would easily fit in them. Her eyes were green and a little bit of blue, her hair golden brown, as crispy as a saltine cracker. Her teeth had braces, the color orange. Her fingernails were painted orange, and the bow in her hair matched it. Her jeans were the exact same brand I was wearing. Her necklace said, “sand” and her shirt was a plain white tee. It nearly killed me to see her wear that, because she would definitely look better wearing her pajamas.
“Yeah, thanks,” she handed me a pair of red sneakers, the laces red as well. I liked them and when I slipped them on it felt like I was officially different.
“Were going to shop for your school supplies. Do you want to come with us?” She was shorter than the girl who handed me the shoes. Her teeth were crooked, but white. Her hair was auburn, curly and looked very shiny. She wore a summer dress, which I personally though look like she had picked a punch of flowers and glued them on a dress. Even though her sandals were Sesame Street, I ignored them.
“Sure,” I said, my voice unheard by all the ruckus.
“Now,” the tallest girl said, taking my bags, “I’m April. I’m the oldest,” she smiled at me, but not as beautifully as last time.
“When I heard your name was Tory, I nearly laughed myself to death. Because that was our dog! I’m June,” June seemed like the type that her hobby was laughed. She looked identical to April, so I asked her if she was April’s twin.
“No, I’m just her sister that just looks exactly like her,” April said sarcastically. She swung her purse around and
