*Official* Sri Lanka in India

[Shri]

Matthews gone in 3...2...1

 

[Craig]

Sangakkara gone. This Test won't last long.

 

[G.I.Joe]

Looks like this match will be over in three days. Pitch not up to scratch obv

HAHA, came in here to post exactly that. 8 overs to go. Groundsman chewing his fingernails off as we speak.

 

[NUFAN]

Yeah, unless Matthews does something huge in this innings, I think he'll be dropped next Test.

Matthews and Mendis should be dropped.

Bring in the next best bat and also a quick, is Nuwan recovered yet?

 

[Prince EWS]

I'd stick with Mathews, nothing to suggest he's not the next best batsman even if you ignore his bowling anyway tbh.

Now I think people will be whining this is a bowler's pitch. (Joking of course)

 

[Agent TBY]

Hai guyz, what a terrible pitch. Road, tarmac, highway, I don't even know what to say. Bore draw, India is killing Test Cricket imo. India didn't bat well, Lanka didn't bowl poorly. The scorecard doesn't matter, all it shows is that Lanka batted badly and that the toss was crucial. I was right all along, $$$$, IPL, T20, Statsguru etc etc.

So many people eating humble pie.

One of the more satisfying days on CW.

Absolutely.. and predictably, almost everyone not showing up, excepting UC and Langeveldt...

Raghav's here. Still in denial though.

 

[DingDong]

i thought the wicket was flat as well. i;m sorry ok.

uc and langeveldt: u guys should also apologize.

 

[Jono]

I don't really care about apologies, just use common sense next time.

Until the other team has batted, don't be an armchair expert and pretend you know the result of the match before the first day has even finished.

And realise that Virender Sehwag has scored plenty of centuries at almost a run a ball in WINS for his team, so that was dumb reasoning as to why the pitch was flat as well.

ok.

 

[Jono]

Good stuff.

 

[Agent TBY]

ok.

 

[honestbharani]

lol.. Professor Jono taking class. School is in session.

 

[duffer]

Flattest pitch ever for the Third Test please. Lankans can break as many batting records as they want then.

 

[Uppercut]

Tbf, if they bowl like they did on the first day here you could play on the surface of the moon and they still wouldn't take 20 wickets.

 

[duffer]

Better to be safe than sorry imo.

 

[Uppercut]

Shame to see Murali so over the hill. Used to be impossible to prepare a pitch that negated him.
