Mahela, Sangakkara bid adieu to ODI cricket

Sangakkara became the sixth player to score 500 runs in the World Cup. The loss notwithstanding, he remembered better things about him and partner Jayawardene. "Mahela would be terribly disappointed but that's part and parcel of the game, there are no fairytale endings. How much you want to win a World Cup, end on a high but if it doesn't happen, it doesn't happen, it doesn't mean you walk away disappointed," said a smiling Sangakkara in a post-match chat.
