Sri Lanka batting first
47/2 in 5 overs

Sri Lanka trying to be bit aggressive, but alas again they lost 2 wickets soon!
 
Dilshan Munaweera playing a blinder of an innings. Ruining Chahal's figures with some brilliant batting

Fastest stumping?

Yeah only one name comes in today's game the cool mineded DHONI. Earlier he was criticized for keeping abilities but now he is the fastest Stumping machine out there.
 
This is an absolute belter. Wet ball is causing a lot of problems to the bowlers.

Munaweera played a blinder. But he is out now.

200 is minimum on this wicket.
 
He has done this many times, normal for him. One of the best wk batsman in this era for sure..
 
On flat wickets, Kuldeep is producing spin and bowling beautifully.

Ashiwn and Jaddu would have been taken to the cleaners on this wicket.
 
Great comeback by Chahal.

Indian spinners have tightened the noose.

Lanka might not score even 150 here.
 
Below par score from Lanka again.

Unless they reduce India to 20/3 or something, India will chase this easily. This is a perfect T20 track.
 
Axar, Chahal and Jadhav are really terrible fielders. Especially Jadhav.

Axar? Whenever I have seen him field in IPL, he was really good. Jadhav should not be anywhere near our LOI/T20 team with that kind of fielding.

Axar Patel is slow to the ball and his throws are pretty weak. He is a decent catcher though.
 
Last chance for Sri Lanka to win this tour, and looks like another loss. Don't think there's ever been an annihilation like this by an away team on a non-minnow test nation. Worst performance by a home team I can recall, not a single match was close.
 
LOL this is just the kind of series Kohli and Co. needed after their embarrassing show on June 18. WI and SL. Everything is forgotten, Kohli is again the reincarnation of God and India the undisputed power house of cricket in all formats...

India have done well, they deserve praise. Not many teams dominate Sri Lanka in Sri Lanka like this, nor do many teams defeat any opposition in this manner at their own home. It deserves credit, India have been largely flawless.

You are the only one who is still hung up about that loss. The players probably forgot about it a week after. It has been almost 3 months, get over it.

The problem is India has always been ruthless minnow basher. Enter a competitive team and it gets hard to win.

What re u talking about?

In last 10 years, India have made it to finals of Icc more than any other team. Also managed to win on two occasions which is most by any teams.
One loss do not change the fact that overall India have been more consistent teams in ICC events.
 
Kohli ended up with a fifty in his 50th T20I, and in the process, he even went past McCullum as the highest run-scorer in T20I run-chases.
So it's an emphatic clean-sweep for India: 3-0 in the Tests, 5-0 in the ODIs and now a win in the one-off T20I.
India have completed a "Tourwash" .
 
Buhat hi bura waqt aya howa hai Lanka pe :))
 
The Indians have really turned it on !!!! Can't wait to see them play SA, PAK, AUS or England !!!!
 
SL is utter rubbish. :))

Kohli's strokeplay truly comes out in this format. Magnificent.
 
Usually, when a Chasing side wins a match, ODI or T/20, the losing side always claims that they were some 15 to 20 runs Short !!!!!!!! Nonsense !!!!!!! Today, the Indians could have Easily scored those 20 extra runs ...... if they had to !!!
 
One of the most one sided tours ever!

I would be really disappointed if we don't whitewash SL in all formats.

You can smoke them in Tests for sure but ODIs would be some challenge.They got a mystery spinner in Dhananjaya who can give your batsmen some trouble especially while chasing scores in excess of 250.
 
If you watched the matches live (and did not just judge them by reading the score cards) you may have realised that their mystery spinners are tough to get away. Just because these overrated mediocre batsmen like Kohli and Rohit Sharma scored against them does not mean that the ATG batsmen that every other team are infested with will be able to do the same.

This is a most complicated sarcastic post!
