ICC CT 2017, Group B | Sri Lanka [322/3] beat India [321/6] by seven wickets

[ToeCrusher2]

No, India have probably the 2nd best death over bowlers.

2nd best? Who has better death bowlers than India?

 

[Zak_Fan]

Pace bowling has been good.

 

[Boi]

What is the equation for Pakistan.. If Sri Lanka win this?

If Sri Lanka win this it will make the last two games of the group stage virtual QFs. Whoever wins the two games will go through. NRR won't be involved other than in deciding 1st or 2nd.

No need bhai ..India will win it in the end ..it will all work out .

 

[saeed5646]

What is the equation for Pakistan.. If Sri Lanka win this?

it will become

pak vs srilanka quarterfinal

india vs south africa quarterfinal

 

[troodon]

Spinners are useless on this wicket.

You need fast bowlers with variations.

That MSD's innings is looking weak now. He is a finisher and never really accelerated on this patta at the death.

63(52) is not good enough.

 

[aniket1911]

What is the equation for Pakistan.. If Sri Lanka win this?

Well if Sl this good a opposition then Pakistan will have tough time against them. However, if we lose here and you guys win them semi spot is booked by Pakistan.

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Sri Lanka have shown courage and are fighting, only a wicket away from a collapse. Come on Team India

 

[idrizzy]

Great effort

 

[Zak_Fan]

Another drop.

 

[aniket1911]

dropped! are you kidding me. argh

 

[big_gamer007]

Should have caught that was a nice effort

 

[ToeCrusher2]

6 overs of jadeja are in the propblem, the rest of the bowlers have bowled well

 

[Greenstorm]

What is the equation for Pakistan.. If Sri Lanka win this?

win against srilanka will take us to the semis.

 

[JaDed]

Expected drop ,that's why we will not win.

 

[idrizzy]

Unbelievable luck!

 

[big_gamer007]

Fml how many close chances and drops will we see today?

 

[aniket1911]

)
It's not our day guys. law of average catching up with us.

 

[dauntless]

Match is getting interesting now.India will win this though!

 

[idrizzy]

2nd best? Who has better death bowlers than India?

Australia

 

[Zak_Fan]

Another edge, another boundary. I appreciate the good batting, but Lankans have been riding their luck too.

 

[Galla]

Pandya treated like the bowler he is.3 back to back fours

 

[Zak_Fan]

Someone start a thread congratulating Lanka. This is our only chance now.

 

[battler]

India's losing this one boyss

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Superb batting

 

[aniket1911]

Think something out of the box dhoni. show us why we still need you in the team.

 

[idrizzy]

That was a tough chance, not really a drop, momentum made him drop that. If you had an athletic fielder there, then maybe it'd been cleanly taken.

 

[Sarfarazian92]

Loving this

 

[SandyB]

Dear fellow Indian posters, complete (in your heads only), if you can, the first line of this couplet:

To har koi bola, Hajmola!

Pass. Not a hindi speaker.

 

[idrizzy]

Someone start a thread congratulating Lanka. This is our only chance now.

)

 

[JaDed]

Luck favoring them but Rohit should had caught that.

 

[troodon]

LOLOLOL

India might lose this.

These flat pitches take bowlers out of the equation. 320 looks way below par score here.

 

[aniket1911]

India's losing this one boyss

Aapke muh me parmal ki sabji

 

[RobinJay]

Oh wow.While i'm sure India will win this, these two have certainly caused a stir.

 

[Zak_Fan]

Pace trio has bowled so well for this track.

 

[troodon]

Kedar Jadav?

LMAO!!

He is worse than the worst spinners from whatever I saw of him before.

 

[JaDed]

God he is bowling cakes.

 

[SandyB]

Ashwin would've made something happen !

 

[idrizzy]

God he is bowling cakes.

Making me hungry.

 

[aniket1911]

missing me?

 

[idrizzy]

Kohli

 

[saeed5646]

how much would have help srilankan batsmen to handle bumrah i think malinga have tell them every strength

of bumrah especially these slower ones

 

[idrizzy]

missing me?

)

 

[Zak_Fan]

Bhuvi bowled brilliantly.
Bumrah has been very good.
Umesh despite one bad over was more than decent for the track.

The only reason we are out of this game is because of our batting. Should have scored 350 on this track.

 

[aniket1911]

)
Kohli with his 100MPH thunderbolts.

 

[JaDed]

WTH is he thinking seriously!! Still can remember Morkel taking him to cleaners.

 

[dauntless]

Woaah! Virat is bowling now!

 

[Pete Rose]

India losing this is good for Pakistan.

 

[troodon]

Kohli bowling

He bowls half trackers all day.

 

[dauntless]

So he has to go now!

 

[FlickedOffHips]

When was the last time SL chased 320+? i can't remember.

 

[Pollack]

Kohli bowling hahaha

 

[troodon]

Where are Dhoni fans now?

His innings looks pathetic now.

 

[Zak_Fan]

Lanka out of luck finally !!

 

[OmaIR1]

Have full confidence in India. They can turn this around any time.

 

[ToeCrusher2]

lol that's the game set and match

 

[JaDed]

This is why I'll never take anyone except Dhoni in such situations

 

[classic]

kholi will get a wicket here i feel ..

 

[ussy]

If Sri Lanka lose it's their own fault. Why risk it with the second run when you're cruising to victory what idiots.

 

[Pollack]

Where are Dhoni fans now?

His innings looks pathetic now.

Kept on saying dhoni played a bad innings given the conditions and stage he came in.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Needless.

Might choke now

 

[FlickedOffHips]

 

[troodon]

India fluked a wicket.

Still Lanka's match to lose.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Finally a wicket. A collapse now.

 

[Anik Sharma]

I still believe Sri Lanka will win.

 

[SpiritOf1903]

Suicidal!

 

[roshanrocks]

Have full confidence in India. They can turn this around any time.

Lankans in the drivers seat now....lol

Next set to of matches will br straight knockouts

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Run out.

 

[ToeCrusher2]

Australia

hmmm maybe, haven't watched recent matches of australia but starc is bloody great

 

[jagatk]

Whatever my opinion on Dhoni's batting ability, there really isn't a better keeper in the world.

 

[90MPH]

Ok

Sri Lanka were cruising.

Totally needless runout.

 

[battler]

In comes kohli to serve some more pies )

 

[aniket1911]

Think something out of the box dhoni. show us why we still need you in the team.

We do need him, lightening fast stumping that.

 

[troodon]

This is why I'll never take anyone except Dhoni in such situations

If MSD cannot be dropped, then we need Rishab Pant who can play blistering T20 innings in the middle.

We cannot have oldies stroking it at 90 S/R and ending up with 310-320. Not good enough on this highways.

 

[amax]

Inida back in game time to bring yadav

 

[Messiah]

srinlanka will now collapse. Congratulations india

 

[Arham_PakFan]

 

[JaDed]

Jhadav dude!

 

[battler]

*** get bhuvi in

 

[JaDed]

I agree,just meant in pressure situation.
