Just under 3 hours to go till the fourth ODI. The result shouldn't be any different from the first three I reckon. India whether they are chasing or defending, they're just too good in their backyard.

If they bat first they put up 320+ and when they are chasing they chase as if they are chasing 320+ and get the total before 45 overs. Sri Lanka will need to do something out of the ordinary if they are to win the remaining two ODIS.

If not 3-2 even 4-1 should be somewhat respectable. 5-0 might hinder their confidence going into the England series.
 
Another drubbing on the cards for Sri Lanka it seems. I just don't know what happens to them when facing India.
 
This match marks the 150 years anniversary of the great grand Eden Gardens!
 
I don't rate Lankans at all, but even by their standards, the nature of surrenders has been astounding. They are clearly not interested in this series. :sanga

Yea even before series they were stating we are not ready etc etc.

Yes, there is no fun in this series now. Even the match threads are boring because crazy Lankan posters have disappeared from PP now, and all that's left is the sensible bunch. Real shame.
 
Rohit has had perennial problems against Mathews. I still remember those 14 runs in 5 innings!
 
I have a feeling that this match is going to be a 400+ run-fest. Lankans will be out in 37 overs.
 
Anurag: "This is a lovely contest not between SL and Ind but between Rahane and Rohit to occupy the second opener's slot. Dhawan must be feeling secured."

:)
 
Ideally, my batting order would've been -

Rahane
Uthappa
Kohli
Rohit
Raina
 
Watching Tailunted bat as an opener is nothing short of torture. Wasting deliveries in first few overs is absolute criminal.

Tailunted usually wastes overs & then later gets out at around 60 SR. A four here or there is all he's giving as an opener.
 
hopefully Dhoni makes Rahane open in WC with Dhawan.

Rohit should compete with Rayudu for no.4
 
Happens when angelo matthews is bowling like a spinner in the disguise of a medium pacer.

I expected that from Rohit but not our inform batsmen.But yeah its ok let the other batsmen face Angelo.
 
You really have to be a **** poor batsmen to be troubled by angelo matthews in these conditions :facepalm:

46/1 10 overs must be one of our worst first 10 overs against SL in recent times.
 
Just look at the way Raydu is scooping short balls to the fielder. Johnson will eat him alive :mj
