[Electron]

Good toss to win for Sri Lanka. Varun rightly kicked out after that first match.

 

[dravid the wall]

chase will be interesting for lanka ...if india score 300 ...

 

[Aman]

India look very light on bowlers, SL should slaughter their attack.

 

[OZGOD]

SL don't want to get Kohli'd in a chase I guess.

 

[Aman]

Indian fans would you prefer a failure for Kohli today? #lawofaverages

 

[shadow2357]

Ind have their luck with them...today their will be no dew factor..

 

[Aman]

SL don't want to get Kohli'd in a chase I guess.

Smart choice, Kohli is twice the player when chasing

 

[MarkCooper]

True fact: this is the 69th time these two teams have played each other this year.

 

[Moh@n]

True fact: this is the 69th time these two teams have played each other this year.

This year is not even 60 days old yet )

 

[Itachi]

Indian fans would you prefer a failure for Kohli today? #lawofaverages

nope. i wanna see kohli fail on sunday and how others cope pak bowlers....

look at chandimal's statements.

They have some really good players but we've got bowlers like Malinga."

i want kholi to smash malinga's weaponry.

He is a specialist bowler and at the moment he is the number one bowler in the world

what the hack? malinga?

 

[The intelligent Supporter]

sRI lANKA..Has killed all its chances by DESTROYING its pace attack

Malinga..is lollipop for Kohli...and not a single pacer besides him...***

 

[shadow2357]

Whats wrong with SL,they are going with all spin bowlers against a team who loves spin bowling

 

[London_Lahori]

Good decision by SL. India will target 270

 

[Justcrazy]

Match to start

 

[Justcrazy]

Lanka banking on spin here

 

[Electron]

Gravity increases when Rohit plays the first ball

 

[Justcrazy]

I would have started with spin here

 

[Justcrazy]

India have strengthened the batting with Binny.

 

[Justcrazy]

single , India start there score !!!

 

[Justcrazy]

One from first over

 

[Electron]

Tuk tuk Rohit needs to rotate the strike.

 

[Justcrazy]

Mathews has the new ball

 

[Electron]

71% of the Power Play balls Rohit plays are dots

 

[Justcrazy]

Maiden

 

[Justcrazy]

Ball keeping low.

 

[HamzaSaeen]

71% of the Power Play balls Rohit plays are dots

Pakistani in disguise?

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

We will score 250+ and they will chase it

 

[Sandeep]

Sharma is so un-Indian in his approach!

 

[Electron]

Pakistani in disguise?

Imagine Umar Akmal playing with a SR of Misbah.. That's our talunted Rohit

 

[Justcrazy]

3 / 0 after 3 overs

 

[Asif321]

Srilanka need to restrict till 280

 

[Electron]

Nohit just defended a 121kph half volley

 

[Spidy201]

bekar pitch keeping so low even with new ball.

 

[hamzie]

What favors pakistan?
SL winning or india?

 

[HamzaSaeen]

Imagine Umar Akmal playing with a SR of Misbah.. That's our talunted Rohit

Basically your CLH except that he's right handed

 

[Electron]

Basically your CLH except that he's right handed

CLH kya hota hai ?

 

[Justcrazy]

:4

Dhawan gets a boundary

 

[Zeshan547]

Rohit and and shehzad are carrying great legacy of legend Misbah. Salute to both of them.

 

[Justcrazy]

Lanka should get in spin early .

 

[Justcrazy]

8 / 0 after 4

 

[Justcrazy]

Playing 3 spinners is risk , Manjerekar saying

 

[Zeshan547]

If kohli and dhawan fail then today india is in for some real hardwork.

 

[Electron]

Class .. :4 Dhawan

 

[Electron]

Another one :4

 

[Justcrazy]

:4

beautiful timing !!

 

[Zeshan547]

Dhawan doing a Afridi here

 

[Justcrazy]

:4

Dhawan Malinga

 

[style_guru]

Dhawan taking on Malinga.

Anyway I am happy for mayanti

 

[Justcrazy]

19 / 0 after 5

 

[Robbie]

Is rohit the worst one day opener India had in last 30 years? I think yes.

 

[Justcrazy]

who is mayanti ?

 

[DrSchultz]

Malinga is bowling at 145!!!
In the UAE series he was barely reaching 135.

 

[Justcrazy]

spin on now

 

[Justcrazy]

India will take on spin here

 

[style_guru]

who is mayanti ?

Bro. you don't know Mayanti Langer? I am sorry for you my friend but how can a cricket fan not know about the most beautiful female cricket presenter of today

 

[Electron]

Is rohit the worst one day opener India had in last 30 years? I think yes.

Yes.. South Africa mein 358 chase kar rahe the, and he started with a 40 ball 10. Selfish little tuk tuk..

 

[Strike Rate]

Is rohit the worst one day opener India had in last 30 years? I think yes.

Sunny G played last odi in 1987

 

[Justcrazy]

:4

finds the gap

 

[Zeshan547]

Will be interesting to see how dhawan handles spin

 

[Justcrazy]

Bro. you don't know Mayanti Langer? I am sorry for you my friend but how can a cricket fan not know about the most beautiful female cricket presenter of today

Sorry , Never saw her.

 

[Strike Rate]

who is mayanti ?

i guess the wife of binny

 

[Electron]

Bro. you don't know Mayanti Langer? I am sorry for you my friend but how can a cricket fan not know about the most beautiful female cricket presenter of today

Really ? She looks like a dude to me when fully clothed.

 

[amax]

This pitch is low its better to remove pace of the ball, good pace will actually help stroke making on such slow wicket.

 

[Justcrazy]

Sunny G played last odi in 1987

He got his only Ton in that

 

[Justcrazy]

Sangakara upto stumps

 

[style_guru]

Really ? She looks like a dude to me when fully clothed.

@Topic:- Someone please tell Talunted that he's not in the middle of a test match.

 

[Justcrazy]

Not much movement .

 

[96NotOut]

CLH kya hota hai ?

Classy left hander.

 

[Justcrazy]

quick single

 

[Justcrazy]

Mendis would be crucial.

 

[96NotOut]

What exactly is "Talunted"? Someone please explain.

 

[Zeshan547]

India is doing same mistake which Pak did yesterday. I mean overcausious start

 

[Robbie]

Whose idea was to let Rohit sharma open?

 

[Justcrazy]

32 . 0

 

[Justcrazy]

Matthews off the field.
