Ok, well not the worst, but by my reckoning he's:
Gilchrist
Boucher
McCullum
Sangakarra
Dhoni, so he's 5th

I can't see McCullum being ahead of Dhoni as a wicketkeeper. The other Sri Lankan keeper, the one from the tests (Jaywardene) is extremely competent behind the stumps as well, and probably ahead of Dhoni. However, Dhoni seems to be, at least at this early stage, to have the makings of a good leader.

McCullum is way better than Dhoni, did you see his 80 off like 30 balls against the bangles, brilliant

That's different...as a *wicketkeeper*, not a batsman.

But thanks to such as Gilchrist and Boucher, I doubt there ever will be position for 'just a wicketkeeper', they will forever be judged on their batting as a significant inclusion to their performance.

India win. Would you look at that.
When we got them down to 5/102, the game was very tight. But solid stuff ploughed India home. Well played by them both I think.
This actually puts India in the lead in the tri series, considering the previous two were washouts.

I didn't actually see this match, but from the scorecard it looks like it was a rain-affected game?
The win certainly throws the series wide open at the moment.

Hopefully the remainder of the series is just as good, as it'll be the last tri-series, at least for a while.

I don't think there's any chance of this Aussie team winning the next world cup.
Ponting, Lee, Hayden, Gilchrist won't be in that team. The quality's already not as good as it was. They look beatable.

Lee? Why wouldn't Lee be in there?
Saw the ending to the match tonight. Good show. It gives Australia the bonus point, too.
Missed Gilly's ton, but what an achievement! Congrats to him.

Sri Lanka could have got there but they lost too many wickets.

Aus vs Ind
That was good. Defended 203 runs with style. Aussies guaranteed a spot in the finals now I think.
