The way the top order batted against turning ball was pathetic. These guys have played on so many turners at home.

India are very poor vs spin and swing.

Easy to exploit their weakness.


Although this pitch is scary. If pitches will be turners like these ones in the WC then Bangladesh and 3meven Afghans will be hard to best for sena teams.

Axar is a better batsman than Jadeja. He should come in a head of Jaddu if both play.

They have sundar who us a much better player than jadeja. India are a bit stupid when it comes to selections.

Just like us not choosing abrar and nawaz.
 
They should have promoted Axar up the order once the pitch started turning! He could have shielded one end. He was one of the best player of spin in the last home test series!

Axar has improved so much when it comes to his batting. He is good enough to bat in Top 5 in subcontinent conditions. A much better batsman than Jadeja. India does not utilize his talent properly.
 
200 on this pitch...... against three spinners is not gonna be easy for SL to chase
 
Tough to win this. Hopefully we win against BD and then Pakistan will not qualify. That will be a great outcome.But BD can surprise us also so you never know.
 
The Aslanka guy is turning them big and he is a part time bowler, not even their regular bowler.
This pitch make him like the second coming of murali warne double whammy combo.
If this was in India and one of our part times did even half this, all the life members of lets-bag-india/bcci-for-all-thats-wrong would be jumping up and down as if ants got into their pants....
becoz its SL - no one will comment or cares.

doubt, we will win this...at best might give SL a stretch.
But for me good outcome is we will be again battle hardened and come out firing against Bangla....

(The message from venkatesh Prasad is diamond & hits it out of the park for a maximum :) )
 
Treacherous pitch and bad batting. Combination of both has undone India. This is not a 200 pitch for sure. 250 would be a good score. 200 is far too less.
 
Darn it Axar. India could have score 10 more runs in the final over.

Anyways, well played Axar. At least the bowlers have something to bowl for.
 
Nevermind he is back. That looked real bad. Bumrah is a strong man. That rolled ankle looked awful
 
Sri Lanka 3 down now...if they don't even make 100 runs, their net run rate will take a beating too
 
Goes to show just how horrible the ground has become to play at with both sides struggling to bat.

But that 3rd wicket was terrible terrible, its like batting practice haha.

Fans actually compare Afridi to Bumrah lol

This type of post is just silly, no offence. Both guys are averaging in their early 20s, while Bumrah is much older and experiences. Shaheen however has probably had a better world cup than Bumrah has ever had.

Some of the so called cricket fans on here are funny.
 
I always found bumrah to be a chucker lol, everytime I see his action.

BCCI ain't banning their players though, our saeed ajmal be taking a ban
 
Ravi Shastri on Bumrah "it's a weird action, not something you see everyday"....yes, because not everyone can get away with chucking.

He should have his arm band taken off.
 
These two batsmen need to bat next 15 overs without taking any risk here , that will be critical.
 
This is very first ODI when we lost all 10 wickets to spinners.
 
If this partnership continues for 50 more runs then game over.
 
Horrible game for Kishan. That should have been taken.
