***Official*** India in Sri Lanka

[Arjun]

Yeah, anyway I'm probably just mad that they blew away a perfectly good chance to get 400. Please ignore my ranting.

Can they even scale 300? No way.

 

[Jono]

Come on boys, 10 an over off the last 5 overs and that's 360 like I predicted

 

[Arjun]

Final five overs. Your call? At least 30 runs if the Indians try to save their wickets, or maybe 45 and all out if these two, then the tailenders, go for the shots.

 

[Athlai]

50 should be the goal. Maybe more.

 

[Arjun]

Bada-bing-bada-BOOM!!! Go Yusuf!

Let's just hope Dhoni pinches singles, twos and threes now.

EDIT: Eleven from a Mendis over without a wicket lost. Good going.

 

[duffer]

Hmm, not Dhoni's finest innings by any stretch. Hope he launch a few to make up for it now.

 

[Athlai]

Lots of Dhoni bashing going on. Pretty unfair TBH.

 

[IndGunner]

Dhoni failing epically :P

 

[duffer]

Lots of Dhoni bashing going on. Pretty unfair TBH.

Hasn't played well at all today, not bashing him by any stretch.

 

[Athlai]

Holding India back from a mini collapse after losing 3 wickets for 33 runs.

 

[Arjun]

Dhoni's in the hitting act now. Maybe this strike will keep quiet those disgruntled Dhoni critics.

Eight in the 47th. Kula on now. Time to attack. One more danger over left.

 

[Arjun]

Ouch...two dot balls...

Eight in this over. Will they save the big strikes for Mendis and Dilhara?

Holding India back from a mini collapse after losing 3 wickets for 33 runs.

One way of looking at it, but seeing as though the next three can all bat a alright I thought he didn't need that much of a settle down.

 

[Arjun]

Yusuf trying to hit over leg side all the time. One attempt at a six got grounded and crawled, as he took a single.

 

[Athlai]

McCullum used to play this role down the order, rotate the strike, don't get out let the other batsman swing for the fences.

 

[Arjun]

Bad day at the office for Maharoof. Last two deliveries go for ten, India get 350, Yusuf gets 50!!!

 

[Jono]

Awesome hitting by Yusuf. Perfect lower order batsman. Wish he was our #8, but on these tracks and this batting line-up, can afford him at 7.

 

[Arjun]

Four overs, 43 runs. Now 44. Can this be another half-century?

If you have him at eight, who would bat at seven, and who would bowl? We'd love to have him at seven, eight and nine.

Ouch...dot ball...

Yeah that's the thing. A batting all rounder at 8? I think he's worth his spot at 7 though.
