ICC World Twenty20
21 June 2009
Sri Lanka captain Kumar Sangakkara hailed his side's mental strength after they sealed their place in Sunday's ICC World Twenty20 final.
They face Pakistan in the final, four months after being caught in the middle of the terrorist atrocity in Lahore.
They booked their spot at Lord's courtesy of a 57-run semi-final victory over the West Indies on Friday.
"It's fitting reward for our courage and the way we have played in this tournament," said Sangakkara.
Once again, Sri Lanka dominated their opponents with an impressive technical display with bat and ball, posting a total of 158-5 before bowling the West Indies out for 101.
