Famous last words

Before Sri Lanka played the first CB series final against Australia, Mahela Jayawardene wrote a piece for Cricinfo looking back at the defeat to India, win over Australia and their chances in the CB series finals. Towards the end of the piece he wrote:

We've managed to keep Australia's openers quiet so far and hopefully we can do that in the finals as well.

Ah. How did that go Mahela? One opener made 163, the other made 64 and the opening partnership was 136.

Maybe you should avoid tempting the fates in future.
