We used witchcraft to defeat Pakistan, says Sri Lanka’s Test captain

[Dawood Ibrahim]

COLOMBO: Sri Lanka’s surprise whitewash of Pakistan in the two-Test series this month was down to witchcraft, captain Dinesh Chandimal said on Tuesday, drawing mockery on social media.

Chandimal told reporters he had received a special blessing from a meyni, or sorcerer, ahead of the two-match series in the United Arab Emirates.

“I am always ready to accept the blessings of anyone — whether it is a meyni or any clergy,” Chandimal told reporters after returning to Colombo. “You can have talent, but without this blessing you can’t move forward.”

His comments came a week after Sri Lanka’s sports minister denied ordering the struggling national team to use witchcraft ahead of the Test series.

Dayasiri Jayasekara threatened to sue a sorcerer for claiming that at his request she cast a spell over Pakistan to ensure Sri Lanka’s victory.

Several Sri Lankan politicians, business leaders and sports stars put their faith in witchcraft or astrology.

Former president Mahinda Rajapakse took the advice of his personal astrologer before calling an election two years ahead of schedule in January 2015, only to lose badly.

Chandimal said the sorcerer he consulted was the mother of a friend, and he was willing to accept her blessings.

But since the Test victory, Sri Lanka have fared less well.

They lost 5-0 in the subsequent one-day series against Pakistan and also went down in a three-match Twenty20 series.

Sri Lankan fans made fun of Chandimal and criticised his sorcerer online, with many calling her a fraud.

“You made predictions, tied talismans, held poojas, but finally we were humiliated,” posted one social media user.

Andhshreaddha is a bad thing and as a Brahmin only advice i can give to people who are attracted to black magic is to stay away from it. doing it can harm you permanently, one of my own family member is paying price of just witnessing Avatar of bad Energy.

pak lost not because of witch craft but because of the stupidity of the team selectors. on UAE tracks they went in with only one spinner. these idiots have grown old while playing on those tracks and they know it well that such tracks are made to suit spinners . second mistake was going in with only 4 bowlers. in that heat no bowler can bowl long spells specially the pacers. amir got unfit in the match and wahab was also feeling the heat. shinwari also got sick while bowling the fifth consecutive over in his first odi.

First we have to strike at the root...South Asian countries of the Hindu-Buddhist variety (leaving Muslims out in the first few rounds to avoid extra complication) have to strike at the root...at the root of everything is I guess a deep belief in astrology, pre-destination, fate, destiny......BJP controlled Universities claim that astrology is a science and offer BSc courses in astrology...we have to burn the edifice of astrology down...then we can go after claims of yogic supernormal power...and then black magic and witch craft...This is what I am gonna do mid fifties onwards after I build up my war chest...it is most probably a futile,Faustian quest...but still worth doing..and there is threat of acid attacks and violence from magic-believing Hindu gandoos...but ohh well...it would still be a life well lived

Thanks. We call them Jinn. From our physical perspective they have mass, energy etc. but are invisible. There are both good and bad ones. Good ones don't come in touch with human folks, but bad ones do!!!! So, the best practice is to avoid their human handlers...
