[Itachi]

it is a road.... but 264 is still awesome lol.

 

[Aman]

SL should try to beat Rohit's score.

 

[Swanny]

Lol they should check rohit's bat.

 

[adarsh_bang]

4th over of the match, I predicted India scoring 400+ !

You are a bookie Electron

 

[adarsh_bang]

it is a road.... but 264 is still awesome lol.

It is awesome even in my backyard with the plastic ball. This is just some ridiculous striking.
Too bad it is a meaningless ODI.
Imagine this kind of hitting in a WC! The guy would be a star!

Will never happen in Oceania

 

[iHammad]

Man how are we below SL in ODI rankings is beyond me.

 

[adarsh_bang]

Will never happen in Oceania

Yup. 164 in the australias = 264 in India

 

[imback]

"It was a good batting wicket. We know even 350 is chaseable under lights here."

The next time BCCI request for a tournament, Sri Lanka Cricket won't agree!

[Electron]

Sanga the legend should destroy this 10 match old Indian attack.

 

[desi_launda]

0/1 )

 

[IgnitedMind]

lol !!

 

[imback]

Lollll

 

[Electron]

Umesh has destroyed Perera this series. Total ownage.

 

[desi_launda]

binny

 

[Electron]

Sir Binny

We have decent pace bowlers today, and India decide to play Binny.

who do you want? Vinay Kumar?

 

[desi_launda]

Umesh Yadav 145 kmph

 

[desi_launda]

Perera can smash steyn but he is Yadav's bunny

 

[Electron]

who do you want? Vinay Kumar?

Ishant/Shami/Bhuvi/Mohit are all way better.

 

[Vayuu]

The thing which I am noticing about yadav is unlike aaron, he is looking for swing and control, while maintaining speed upto 148 k, mind you he can crank upto 150's.

 

[Fire Bird]

Looks like SL is playing for a draw

 

[Donal Cozzie]

For the last game can India place some inanimate objects around the field, some kitchen tables should do, and use a bowling machine. Then when their innings is played place the kitchen tables in front of the stumps and bowl.

Would provide as much of a contest as Sri Lanka, while also having more personality

 

[McGarrett]

Very unsporting crowd. Then again, Its India.

 

[ares1000]

FTR Yadav is not that fast. He is decent pace but not express. All 4 games, he bowls between 138-142k on ave. Good speed, not express.

 

[Fire Bird]

Nitpicking much? A little butthurt after the phainty are ya?

used to get phainta when he bowled quicker.has slightly cut down pace to be accurate

 

[desi_launda]

31/2

 

[Fire Bird]

Oh no Bunny has taken a wicket. If he picks a few more, India is in trouble. We may have to play him in the WC

 

[desi_launda]

jaffa by yadav

 

[imback]

Very unsporting crowd. Then again, Its India.

thanks for coming

 

[desi_launda]

147 kmph but

might be better option than 2 spinners in those conditions

 

[Mamoo_cricket]

I think it may turn out action replay of that match when india scored 414 and sri lanka almost chased that but lost by just 2 runs and made 412, that was also an epic chase, and Dilshan played a blinder that i guess, can he repeat it tough but possible, just imagine how world will look upside down if this match follow the pattern of 434 set by Oz and chased by Saffers, but think chance of that happening are as slim as none.

 

[ares1000]

used to get phainta when he bowled quicker.has slightly cut down pace to be accurate

If he can crank it up to high 140s, he should.

 

[Vayuu]

Well he is bowling 142 to 147 , but can bowl 150 ' s, however he is looking for swing and control.

 

[Electron]

Dilshan is destroying Binny. Binny's was a pathetic selection.

 

[Vayuu]

If he can crank it up to high 140s, he should.

He can crank upto early 150's

 

[Fire Bird]

Yeah very sporting indeed. Also this
http://colombogazette.com/2012/08/02/sri-lankans-harassed-indian-fans/
I cannot imagine the mentality of some of these SL fans who routinely hate India. I can understand Pakistan because of our history but even them do not act petty like SL fans. Its evident in every youtube video regarding Indian cricket. They have a very deepseated inferiority complex and it shows. And they are also very vicious in an underhand way. They dont do it openly because then they will be found out. So they indulge in these passive microaggressions. Its a sad existence I tell you.

 

[desi_launda]

 

[Vayuu]

Out

 

[ares1000]

He can crank upto early 150's

Even more reason to. But bowling 150k means not 1 rare ball but with some regularity like Lee, Akhtar, Bond or Tait of recent vintage.

 

[Fire Bird]

might be better option than 2 spinners in those conditions

Umm no. IMO spinners are still better in hard bouncy wickets than medium dibbly dobblt bowlers. Do you remember Vinay Kumar. I dont want to

 

[Big Boss]

3 down already...flat deck

 

[IgnitedMind]

hey...flat pitch..somebody said??

 

[Vayuu]

No man I am not talking about 1 delivery, he can crank 150 's quite regularly in each of his spells, the thing is he is looking for better control and swing ,by just cutting his speed by 5-6 kph,if there is nothing in pitch and it's tailenders he cranks up his speed

 

[Fire Bird]

3 down already...flat deck

hey...flat pitch..somebody said??

Yes flat pitch 44/3 after 9 overs something doesnt add up

 

[desi_launda]

48/4 innings defeat )

 

[Vayuu]

It's the first time in our history we have 2 guys who can clock 150's yadav and aaron, with 5 guys cranking 145's (Shami, Ishant, shukla, bumrah and suyal ), there are other guys as well in domestic cricket as well as in under 19's as well.

 

[Boi]

Looks fixed.

 

[Cricfan4eva]

hey...flat pitch..somebody said??

Hey bro.. Whats the score? SL made 100 already?

Heard its a flat track with 55m boundaries... Kusal Parera must've smoked our attack already...

 

[imback]

hahahahaha

 

[Saurav]

Umm no. IMO spinners are still better in hard bouncy wickets than medium dibbly dobblt bowlers. Do you remember Vinay Kumar. I dont want to

don't know about that.2 spinner combo failed badly in SA and NZ.Need to try something else.

 

[IgnitedMind]

48/4..

Clearly SRL batsmans are embarassed to play in such a flat track against stuart binny..who is bowling so slow...ball feels bad and decides to help by swinging a bit..

 

[Sidilicious]

Looks fixed.

Indeed its fixed. How can India wins a match? Only Pakistan is allowed to win by big margins

 

[Thivagar]

Binny looking like styen SL batsmen

 

[Big Boss]

Flat pitch

 

[Thivagar]

Umesh has destroyed Perera this series. Total ownage.

Everyone destroyed every Pereras in history of cricket.

 

[dravid the wall]

flat deck and sl are 53/4

 

[Fire Bird]

don't know about that.2 spinner combo failed badly in SA and NZ.Need to try something else.

Well then Binny is not that something else lol. Not in a crucial tournament like the WC

 

[TNA]

I think India scored 200 extra runs for this joke of a batting side.

 

[Vayuu]

Already run rate is over 9

 

[Fire Bird]

Flat pitch 48/4

 

[Thivagar]

) )

You don't know SLC

 

[Saurav]

Well then Binny is not that something else lol. Not in a crucial tournament like the WC

Already taken 2 on a patta

He can bat as well.Can be decent 5th bowler option.We dont have anyone else in seamer allrounder

 

[Thivagar]

12th over and match done already

 

[dravid the wall]

can srilanka reach half the score of rohit sharma?

 

[Thivagar]

Kusal perera should be banned from playing cricket. Sanath should launch a defamation case against Kusal.

 

[Thivagar]

Don't even know why SL tried Chaturanga, Priyanjan when you had Angelo Perera and Vithanage

 

[Fire Bird]

Already taken 2 on a patta

We will be playing Jadeja or Patel as the 5thbowler/allrounder. We don't need more bits and pieces guys. Places like Australia is where you need quality specialists. Last time there was a WC in Aus, Pakistan played specialists and England played bits and pieces allrounders. The proof is in the pudding.

Russel Arnold, "T.Perer and S.Prasanna are still there "

Axar and Jadeja's bowling won't be useful as Binny in Australia.

 

[Kianig89]

ALas! must be hard to swallow for a SL fan [MENTION=134867]Kiri[/MENTION]

 

[Fire Bird]

SL has a poor batting lineup but they arent helping themselves by not rearranging their order. They are being too conservative. IMO this should be their order
1. Pererea
2. J'dene
3. Thirimanne (best of their young bats)
4. Dilshan
5. Matthwes
6. Chandimal
If Sanga comes back he should be no.3 and everyone drop down the order.

I remember in 2000, we had only Sachin and Ganguly as our best bats like Sanga and Jaya are now. We didnt hide them in the middle order. We played them upfront. We got beaten quite a bit but we also won a lot with that combo.
