Dubious distinction

AFP, Paarl
Sri Lanka sent Canada crashing to a world record low total of 36 all out to cruise to a nine-wicket win in their World Cup Pool B match at Boland Park here on Wednesday.
Opening bowlers Chaminda Vaas and Prabath Nissanka, who was named man-of-the-match, were mainly responsible for the Canadian collapse, reducing the World Cup minnows to 21 for seven at one stage.
"It's very disappointing to lose like that," said Canada skipper Joe Harris who was joint top scorer with nine in his team's innings.
"We were playing one of the best sides in the world but the wicket was a decent track on which to bat. We just let the pressure get to us."
Vaas took three for 15 and Nissanka four for 12 before Sri
Lanka knocked off the winning runs in just 4.4 overs to end the match in two hours although in-form captain Sanath Jayasuriya failed for the first time in the World Cup, when he was leg before wicket to Sanjay Thuraisingam for nine.
"We bowled really well today and the ball was seaming," said Vaas.
"We wanted them out as soon as possible and to do it so quickly will be a great boost for our run-rate."
Sri Lanka, who now have three wins in three games at the World Cup, were responsible for the previous lowest total in one-day internationals when they bowled out Zimbabwe for 38 in Colombo in 2001.
In that match, Vaas took eight for 19, the best figures ever in one-day international history.
That game was the shortest of all time, lasting only 20 overs in total but Wednesday's mismatch was easily the shortest World Cup match.
To add to Canada's embarrassment, they had already made the previous lowest World Cup total when they were dismissed for 45 by England in Manchester in 1979.
In that game, they batted for 40.3 overs with England fast bowler Bob Willis, who was one of the television commentators here on Wednesday, taking four for 11.
Canada made a bad start when John Davison was caught behind off an inside edge against Nissanka in the second over before a run was scored.
Vaas, who took a hat-trick on way to six for 25 when Sri Lanka beat Bangladesh by 10 wickets in their previous match in the World Cup in Pietermaritzburg on Friday, again had an opportunity to take three wickets in three balls when he dismissed Desmond Chumney and Ian Billcliff off successive deliveries.
Harris survived the hattrick delivery and went on to make joint top score of nine with Chumney.
Nissanka also took two wickets in two balls, trapping Nic de Groot and left-hander Ishwar Maraj leg-before Ashish Bagai blocked the next delivery.
Canada had shown promising form in their first two matches in the 2003 tournament, beating Bangladesh by 60 runs in Durban before losing by four wickets against Kenya in Cape Town making totals of 180 and 197 respectively.
Sri Lanka, who started the day on top of Pool B, boosted an already impressive net run as Jayasuriya and Marvan Atapattu went for their shots.
Jayasuriya, who made 120 and 55 not out in his previous two innings, swung across the line against seamer Sanjayan Thuraisingam and was leg before in
the third over.
But that was the only setback for the Sri Lankans.
