When we devised the idea of a pressure index we didn't even dream of matches like this one!
What sort of pressure is a side expected to feel if it needs only 78 runs to win on a benign track against very modest bowlers?
Sri Lanka's pressure index opened at 6 because the Rediff.com expert believed that they were good for 300 instead of 78.
It was all over in10 overs.
I am waiting for this World Cup to end and for the minnows to go back home!
