5th ODI: India v Sri Lanka

India coming off their biggest win of the tour. Sri Lanka are 0 for at the moment but in both their losses they haven't been that bad to be honest. Both times they had opportunities to win but reckless batting and poor decision making ultimately lost them the match. I still believe if Sanga didn't get stupidily run out against Australia Lanka would have won that last game as Dilshan and he were cruising at the time.

I can see a bit of a letdown for India today as a result of their dramatic win against Australia on Sunday. Sri Lanka in a must win situation and there is not much between these 2 teams in the Australian conditions.

Sri Lanka @ 2.50 for me today

Haddin not selected for the next stage of the ODIs. So much for him being "rested" in the first 3 matches

It's ridiculous how much spin the selectors hand out to the media. Why not just come out and say that he was dropped from the outset

Rod, i thought i would never say this , but it appears to me that SL are the worst players of spin in the world.....

They were woeful against Ashwin and even Jadeja held them down....

Then Aswin and Jadeja get spanked against aus again on Sunday......

England even played the Paki spinners better last night than when SL went there...

Strange.....

Even Doherty looked world class against them on Fri night...

Strange how bad they are against spin.....

Yep on SL.....

Good to see Herath inm they would have beaten India if he played last game......

Perera is in......

India missing Khan, thats a huge loss, he was there best bowler last game........

Same pitch, it should get a but sloweras the game gets along....

thranga out second ball.......useless

Just pure brainless dead shit batting..

You are on 81 runs , the ball gets hit straight to a fielder 10 metres away, and you start running.......

Thats the last time i bet on this team, they just have to find a way to completely fuck things up,

They just seem to have a very very low IQ,

If you didnt think human beings could that dumb you would think they are throwing games....

geez the batting in the last 10 overs of all the ODI games so far has been sh!t to watch

what absolute brainless batting.

you have senanayake  who is on fire on the other end but kulasakera tries these stupid cute shots and then gets himself out, waste 3 balls in the process

That last 15 overs was the most brain dead batting i think i have seen

whose leading in the india-sri lanka game?

Sachin OUT!!

Kohli OUT!

Pitch will only get harder to bat on.

Lanka have to get Gambhir out pretty quickly here. He is looking comfortable on this pitch with has some uneven bounce

I really dont know why there is no DRS.......

It worked to a treat in the paki england game last night, to a treat.....

 

I reckon safe

No, thats OUT

Rohit OUT!!

Need to get the Gautham out though

Lanka still in this but Gambhir still the key. Looks a class above every other batsman on this pitch

It looks like its a pitch that is ok to bat on once you get in

Zimbabwe may beat Kiwis in the T20 game

Dlishan should bowl to these 2 lefties now

Kiwis need 14 off the final over to win

Would be huge for Zimbok cricket if they can win even though it is only a T20

That wicket has made Gambhir get bogged down now. I'm sure he knows he is the key wicket
